Re: How many languages do you speak ?

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, definitely.

Like you said, French people get Italian and Spanish more easily. Dutch people get German. The Scandanavians get a 3 for 1 deal.

I'd argue, however, that nobody is actually 'fluent' in the way that many people take the word, even in their own language.

There'll be pockets of any language, even your native one, that are completely foreign to you. For instance, ask the average English speaker to understand a legal document in English, or an engineering dissertation in English, or to translate a German accountancy magazine even if they are 'fluent' in German. To an outsider, it looks like they've lied by saying they know the language.

I don't think the word 'fluent' is that useful. English is my native language. I'd describe it thusly. Never that I'm fluent in it, because there are literally thousands of words I don't know.
