Yesterday I was in the break room, and a pair of people were sitting in there chatting. Apparently they were suits visiting the company that we rent space from. They were both speaking to eachother in French. Oddly, I could understand everything they were saying and follow their conversation perfectly. I’ve taken a total of ~6 years of Spanish and ~4 years of French. I haven’t touched either subject in about 4 years. It’s interesting to see how intrinsic language becomes when you take the time to really get into it (IE, more than 2 years or so).

Later I tried to form phrases at conversational speed in my head just to see what I could remember, and I wasn’t able to do that much. I could use all the tenses enough for conversation, but I was slow (and I imagine disjointed as well). My accents are still pretty good in each though =D. 1 for 2 isn’t awful.
