I can read spanish very well, but I won't understand what I'm saying either.
I know and am studying German. I know a little of Latin, a little of Russin, and a little of Yiddish.

Let's start with:
English -fluently.
Polish- Fluently. I'm of polish background speaking reading and writting are expected aspects of pbeing polish.
Russian- i understand most of it because i work in a Russian Clinic with a majority of Russian patients. Plus i've learnt to say a few things here anf there.
Italian- Semi fluen. I can read,write realy poorly and speak it. I learnt it at school for 8 years you'd hope i learnt something.
Indonesian- i learnt it at school but what i remeber of it are just the basics. Counting, Hello, goodbye, can i have... lets go ..where is the etc
Greek- my xb/f greek and he was always teching me snippets of the language. I totally adore it and am always adding phrases. But i'm no were close to being fluent or even relatively good, he was my translater.
German- its like polish and i've been there on a holiday so i understand most of it my Mum is fluent in it. i can speak a little bit but again it only things like eat, drink etc.
Japanese- is pretty pathetic i must admit i can count and say hello and all the general aspects of that language but nothing grand.
