What year were you born in?
This question asks about the languages you speak.
Fill in each language that you speak in the blanks on the left, and enter estimates of the age you began to learn the language (age of acquisition)
and your proficiency in that language on a scale from 1 to 8.
Age of acquisition is the age you were first exposed to the language. For example, if this is a language you learned from birth, you would put 0.
If this is a language you learned in school, put the age you were when you began classroom instruction (e.g. 5, 13, 18).
For estimating your proficiency, you can use this scale:
1: I regularly see or hear this language, but I have never been able to have a simple conversation in it.
2: I have taken one or more courses in this language, but I never learned to speak or understand it well enough to have a simple conversation.
3: I used to be able to have a simple conversation in this language, but I can't any more.
4: I can have simple conversations about everyday matters and read simple texts.
5: I can cope in most situations when I am traveling and understand the main points in texts regularly encountered in work/school/leisure.
6: I can have a fluent conversation with native speakers and can understand the main points in complex texts on both concrete and abstract topics.
7: I can express myself fluently and spontaneously without difficulty and understand demanding, long texts.
8: I can express myself fluently, spontaneously, and with fine nuances in complex situations and easily understand everything I hear or read.
