A SCOTS teenager has been named the most multi-lingual child in the UK.
Bruce Baillie-Hamilton, 14, can speak six foreign languages as well as English.
He started learning Russian at home and then took up Mandarin “for a challenge”. Arabic was next and he has already achieved grade A passes in each of them, at GSCE or AS level.
Bruce, whose ambition is to become an international businessman, is also learning French, German and Spanish at Beaconhurst School in Bridge of Allan, near Stirling.
He was named Britain’s most multi-lingual under-15 in a competition run by publishers Harper Collins.
