It's idiotic that some people claim to speak a foreign language when all they know is a few stock phrases out of a textbook from a class they took, amirite?

And that's why I'm having my minor in French, so I will be fully fluent in it. I feel like I'm pretty close already, though.

I'm planning on minoring in French, too!

Sweet! It's fun, but the grammar is almost as hard as English D:

I'm bi-lingual. My native language, Arabic, and, clearly, English. English seems like second nature to me, though. Over here, we're taught both Arabic and English starting from kindergarten. So, yeah... Yeah, I met a guy who once said he can speak Arabic. He only knew how to say (10).

yeah, i hate being bilingual when everyone around me answers the question of how many languages they speak as 2 just like me, while they only know a year's worth of Spanish or French, those idiots. if they can't read a literature book of that language then they can't speak it
