We used to joke that most Germans don't speak English until you get them drunk, and then they are more fluent than native speakers.

Do you speak english?

A bit

How much is a bit?

You see, I wouldn't go as far as to say that I have internalized the complex syntactic fabrics of the english languaje but I can make myself understood and even, under good conditions take syntactic liberties to stress my points, furthermore, although my vocabulary is not as extensive as my heart deasires, I have been making great strives to make it richer and fuller.
