English, French, German, Swiss-German, some Spanish, a couple of arabic words. (insults, "water", "bread", "please", "thank you". Usually not used in that order.)

English
Georgian (US)
Alabamian
Mississippian
Lousianaian (not much though, too much Cajun mixed in)
and of course Floridian - a mixture of all of the above plus more, like in south Florida non-native Floridians (we call them "Snow-Birds") say Ruf - as in dog woof - when they actaully are trying to say Roof.

Enough Spanish - German - Arabic to get me by if I happen to be stranded in whatever country. Can read more of it than actually speak it.

I never would have believed it until after I lived in The South for a few years, but yes, they'all speak a bit differently and I can now peg a person's home state by their inflection.
