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.
