minus-squareNorah - She/Theylinkfedilink4•1 year ago#shitamericanssay More than 60% of Europeans speak more than one language.
minus-squareexscapelinkfedilink1•1 year agoTrue, and I agree 99% isn’t true, but I don’t think 40% is either. I speak two languages fluently and have somewhat of an understanding of a third, yet have still posted 100% in English so far… and that’s not my native language.
minus-squareNorah - She/Theylinkfedilink1•1 year agoWasn’t trying to argue it was 40%, was just trying to give an example of why the “99%” figure was laughably off base.
