Probably several, but for certain Greek.

His own name is Greek, meaning "he who pushes away other men". Moreover, he has said that he was a Greek, he took part in the Olympic Games (held only for Greeks) and he never used any non-Greek language during his reign and campaigns against the Persians.

His Father, Philip, was Greek, and of course spoke Greek.

His mother, Olympias, was also Greek and spoke only Greek.

Of course with some accent, because of the distance from the Greek city states of the south. Sometimes the southern Greeks could not understand this accent. In the same way that Americans cannot understand the accent of some Hawaiians.

Macedonians did not speak Greek between themselves, nor were Macedonians considered Greek by their xenophobic Greek neighbors. Traditionally Macedonians spoke Doric. Syriac (old Aramaic) was also a common language of Middle Eastern people and he could have spoken that.

Alexander the great spoke the Doric form of Greek spoken in the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia and Koine Greek which was developed from the Attic form of Greek for use as a common dialect among all Greeks. There is no indication he spoke any other language.

Greek I think. He grew up a Macedonian prince so he most likely did.
