In what language have you ever been fluent other than English?
Again, I don't think you fully appreciate the term you are using, but if it will make you happy I can get along in Japanese and Mandarin well enough.

In what language have you ever been fluent other than English?
I have already addressed this question. While working toward my master's degree I studied many languages. As I've told you before, the word "fluency" is problematic, but I can get by in 4 or 5.
Which ones?
I'm not here to boast. Send a PM.

Separate from our debate in linguistics and proof of research vs. functionality...
did you learn any other language when you were very young?
when I joined the Marine Corps I was already functional in German (3 years of high school), and had been fluent in Spanish (phrases as a young child, immersion by spending lots of time with a Cuban family, and 2 years in junior high). I was given the DLAB and based on that test was sent to DLI to learn Arabic and became fluent in a year.
A background investigation revealed that my mother and grandmother (native language was French) sang and talked to me in French when I was a baby and the researchers noted a correlation among those of us with similar histories.
One of the findings was that people who learned Cat V languages as English native speakers were usually exposed to another language at a very early age and in my case it was theorized by one researcher that I was not a native English speaker due to my first communication (that I didn't remember) being in French.
What's your opinion?

Thinking back to all the useless shit I had to sit through in high school here are a few
You don't need to study Shakespeare in HS
Don't need pep rallies, clubs and all the stupid student council crap

Clubs and Student Council stuff are not mandatory at most schools.

It's irrelevant.
There is no need to waste time reading Elizabethan English. And besides the stories are boring and hackneyed.

No but valuable time is wasted on them nonetheless.

You probably have no greater capacity to understand just what that post makes you look like than does any other farm animal mindlessly going about its aimless, un-reflected life.
I suppose I should go through the motions of asking what makes you think you are qualified to judge and dismiss some of the greatest literature in the history of the English language. Go ahead. You already look stupid, so this shouldn't matter.

If you want to read that shit go ahead but wasting weeks reading that junk in school does nothing to help you in the world unless of course you want to be a play write or a literature professor.
