I was just wondering about all the Europeans (excluding UK)... like do y'all understand... say, an American movie or TV as well as those in your national language?

I also speak a bit of French and German, but I'm nowhere near fluent in those.

Top Flemish linguist confirmed!!

    Just a regular Dutchman from the Netherlands, actually. I got all four languages in school, and got quite a bit of exercise in French as a kid, so some of it stuck with me.

    German is similar enough to Dutch that you can mostly bluff your way through it after highschool.
