In addition to his native Spanish, Francis is conversant in Latin (the official language of the Holy See), Italian (the official language of Vatican City and the “everyday language” of the Holy See), he understands the Piedmontese dialect and some Genoese, German,French, Portuguese, English, and Ukrainian. He is “most comfortable” in Spanish, but is also “completely fluent” in Italian.
