banananor 03/09/22 11:55:20 AM #11:	i'd love to, but i hate being bad at things. going through that awkward (and possibly permanent) phase between high-school level and true fluency would make me so uncomfortable i appreciate my mastery of the english language, and speaking in another language will always feel like trying to eat dinner properly while wearing a giant mascot suit --- You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured. <cite>banananor posted [p:963298579] in Can you sp...

KokoroAkechi 03/09/22 12:07:28 PM #12:	No and tbh there are very few people who speak more than one language at a native level There is a difference between being fluent and speaking at a native level. People from a certain country, area, whatever can often catch someone who is not originally from there based on subtle speech differences, word choices, and so on. Native is really less about the size of your vocab for the language (although that is important) than it is about how closely another native speaker would believe you grew up with it. <cite>KokoroAkechi posted [p:963298940] in Can you sp...
