Fluent....
[among other barbarous oriental languages]
D. Used to be a C- when I lived there, but it's been too many years. Usually starts coming back a few days into a visit.

E but you missed Taxi Thai
Tell me what it is first
Not really. I already was near native in French, fluent in Hindi, ok in Thai, with some Arabic. It's far too easy not to bother to learn Tagalog, as all the Flips I deal with workwise, or friends, speak fluent English. Those that don't - workmen, etc - the wife handles. I understand Tagalog pretty well, but rarely speak it. We speak English in the home, as the twins get enough Tagalog exposure elsewhere. Sometimes I really think I ought to pick up a book and get to it, and then sloth and lethargy win out.
You missed out sign you racist Bastard!
Give myself a D but most times make it a H!
Absolutely ashamed considering the amount of time I have lived here.
I suppose I can get by but not having the conviction to learn to read and write it I suppose I will never be a fluent speaker.
As Neal said Taxi Thai. Im great at it until they start talking back

C- for me just a bit lazy Gert's English is very good these days so i have not bothered to learn much more.But still learn a few words a month.And if all else fails i bring plan B into action.
I SHOUT AT THEM UNTIL I AM UNDERSTOOD.
C for Thai, C+ Lao.
But if you make a small effort it can really surprise them and they'll take you for an old hand even if you've only just got of the plane.
I can just about remember a couple of handy phrases :
" Halika dito magandang babae . Gusto kitang paka salam ! "
That got them on my side
