Episode Synopsis "S1#7 - The Myth of Fluency"

If you are anything like me, then you have probably said to yourself "I want to be fluent in language x". After having learnt a couple languages to a degree that I am satisfied with, I am always asked "Are you fluent in language x" or "Do you speak language x perfectly". Fluency has become somewhat of an overused term and I want to talk about that about it.
