fluent is a vague term. there's reading, writing, speaking, and hearing. then there's conversational language and formal language.

reading/writing is easy because you have time to think about what you want to say and how you want to say it. but when it comes to speaking, you don't have that luxiry. hearing/understanding you only need to understand 80% and the rest you can easily guess by context

in the long run, i think i can be completely "fluent" in english. i'm staying in USA for good now that i'm an independent. i don't like moving around. hard to make friends and keep girlfriends

What I was referring to is your native language, the one you learned as a child, and from your parents... It seems to me that you don't have one.

i learned estonian as a child. it's the first language my sister and i were trained in. my parents taught us whatever estonian they knew at the time but they're not estonian. my dad's italian and my mom's loosely german. then we all moved and barely used estonian since

if i'm at a work interview and my interviewer asks me what my native language is, i usually just say english and german. if people ask me "what i am", i just say german
