    Country: Slovenia



    I 'speak' 4 languages, of which 1 is my native(Slovene) and 3 are foreign(English, German and Serbocroat). My level of knowledge of these languages of course varies, I would say my English is around C1 level, German probably around B2 and for Serbocroat I wouldn`t know how to evaluate my knowledge, but I would say it is closer to the level of my English than German. I also understand (quite) a bit of written French and some other Romance languages(Spanish and Italian), because I like languages and I took basic self-learning courses of French and Spanish when I was about 13-15 years old, of course not learning much and by now I have forgotten even most of what I learnt then.

    Is Bosnian similar to Croatian?

    I think they are basically two versions/dialects of the same language.

    French is the only language i'm able to speak fluently.
    Don't ask me for directions if you're a tourist, the answer will always be the same "sorry i don't speak english"

    Only English fluently. I got to intermediate Japanese once; some Spanish. I just lacked the focus to become fluent in a second language, and believe to be truly fluent, you need to live in the relevant country. Each language has many layers of sophistication which takes years to accumulate within the country.

    I speak German fluently and English (B2 Level). I also learned Italian and Latin at school (Italian 2 years, Latin 4 years, my gosh) but I forgot the most
    I want to concentrate on improving my English (CAE Exams) but I have little time at the moment due to work. My problem isn´t speaking and my knowlege of vocabularies, but writing and correct spelling.

    I had classes of French in school and Norwegian one year ago, but I can't say I can use those languages fluently.
