When you speak the language as though your mothertongue. No hiccups, absolute cultural awareness and ability to comprehend colloquial and complex literate terms. Coming out of school, you're far from fluent. Only way to reach fluency is residence in the corresponding country.

Yah but finality, we're Einstein and Darwin billionaires?

I haven't studied today yet woke up late and went in for English. I usually start studying at about 9.30. I guess one late wakening isn't too bad. I'm starting from 2pm . My teacher went through short stories and said I need to think of a story and then on the day I'll use that story that I've made up and fit it into the title. But I the usually get my ideas from the title rather than just making up a story... Do you need to have a story prepared? I was just thinking of having a few plots in mind.

Hmm, I don't quite mean like that. I mean fluent in the sense that you'd be able to understand a native speaker with no problems at all and have a natural flowing conversation with, the only way someone could achieve what you're talking about is if they were born into the language (imho). Having said that I agree with ya and want to go to France someday so I can become fully fluent

And finality, I don't mean to rain on your parade anything... but yeah.

Edit: I just saw the INTP types, they're pretty cool too. There seems to be a ton of INTP philosophers, which is awesome. And Albert Speer! Deadly haha. For some reason I could see an ENFP and an INTP making an amazing combination, playing music together or something.

Not at all. Such fluency is achieved if one emigrates at an early age, having learned one language beforehand. However, I have a friend who has learned 3 languages to almost that degree. Two in his childhood, one in adulthood, so it is possible. I consider nothing else real fluency.

Niels Bohr, Kubrick, Sartre, Satie, Kafka, Asimov? Nice one ENFP's seem to mostly just be professional ****-disturbers, whereas INTJ's seem more... structured. Guevara, Castro, Ahmadinejad, I could see a scrap breaking out betwen them and an INTJ pretty easily! Yeah, I know what you mean about the fluency thing. Hopefully I'll be able to do the same as your friend, I love languages.

I got ENTJ which is also known as a "trailblazer". That sounds terrifyingly destructive.

Edit: I'm also ecstatic because this is the first time I've ever been described as an extrovert. My guidance counselor says I don't have the people skills for the career I want to go into but I think I prefer the quizzes advice.

You can get to know more about them if you google which ever type and click the first link which says portrait of a. (type) . It's interesting too and the careers it has down for me one of them is actually what I want to do .

Does anyone here know how to download the listening part of the French exam for the last few years? I've been looking through the Folen's website for ages but of no avail
