How Bilingual are You?

Many learn two languages and claim to be bilingual... when few can actually reach total multilinguality. But how close are you? It's always hard to tell. Take this test, made by a fluent 100% bilingual, to find out.

Either you are one of the idiots mistaking having taken Spanish in high school as having mastered one language, or you are seriously studying a foreign language, test your bilinguality now. Warning: must be able to speak English, unless you have a translator employed.
