  • I have spoken English since birth.
  • Je parle français depuis l'âge de 7 ans, parce que je l'apprenais à l'école.
  • Estudiaba el español en la escuela secundaria.
  • Jag lär mig svenska i fler än tio år.
  • Ich kann etwas Deutsch lesen und verstehen.

And thanks to my Swedish, I can read a surprising amount of Danish and Norwegian.

I would call myself proficient in French, passable in Spanish, barely functional in Swedish, and I can get by in German in a very banal emergency. 😉

No notes on your German. It sounds more formal than when I'd tell a friend but it def sounds right to me.

Thank you. What little I can speak or write is very firmly 1980s textbook German.
