How many years until I could speak all my languages?

🚀 Learn a language with movies and TV on Lingopie! Get 55% discount → https://learn.lingopie.com/lindieb Can you really speak a language from day one? How long does it take to get to the speaking stage? And how long did it take me to be able to, at least conversationally, speak the languages I do? In this video, I go through some of these questions and give an overview of my language history. I don't mention all the languages I speak, just the ones that have core memories of moments I finally realized I can communicate as a beginner.
