What languages did Octavio Paz speak?

Octavio Paz, the renowned Mexican poet, essayist, and diplomat, spoke Spanish as his native language.

While there's no record of him being fluent in other languages, he certainly had a deep knowledge of French literature and culture. This is evident in his extensive writing on French poets like Baudelaire and Rimbaud, and his translation of works by French authors.

He likely had some understanding of English as well, given his travels and engagements with international literary circles. However, there's no evidence to suggest he was fluent in it.
