I've been told I speak English, but I require proof. Enough Germany to get into a university. Some French and I can understand a good portion of Spanish when I hear it, but reading is limited to the colour of a cow.

Sure you can speak these languages, but how many of you are actually fluent in them?

One of my pet hates is when somebody says they know about 6 or 7 languages, wow aren't they so special, and it turns out they know about 8 expressions in half of them and can barely hold a good conversation in the other half.

For the record, French and Italian, but at an intermediate level, just enough to get by by the skin of my teeth. I read it better than I can speak/listen

Spanish- perfect.
English- perfect.
French- Let's say it's a 6/10
Russian- A train wreck: 3/10 Очень плохо

Ancient Greek - read and write fine without dictionary
