Re:The Mystery of People Who Speak Dozens of Languages by lb1lf on Thursday August 30, 2018 @01:13PM (#17878529)
That makes sense - I consider myself reasonably fluent in three languages - my native Norwegian, English and German.

I can, however, make small talk without embarrassing myself too much in three additional ones - Portuguese, Russian and Monokotuba. (Funny, that last one - a result of being stuck in the Congo for work...)

I don't put the last three ones on my CV, though - while I do make myself understood, to a fluent speaker it is probably a lot like conversing a four year old (with rather particular interests for a four year old!)
