If you speak a foreign language fluently, you may be given an exam to test your skills. You want to avoid saying you speak a specific language fluently if you do not. If you only speak a few words or phrases of a different language, that is not considered fluent.

"Yes, I speak Korean and Russian fluently. I learned Korean after marrying my wife, who is from South Korea. She speaks English very well, but I wanted to be able to communicate with her family who does not speak English. I learned Russian as a young child since my father is from Russia, and he wanted me to learn both English and Russian from a young age."

"Yes, I speak Spanish fluently. I learned Spanish while volunteering for a year in South America. I was on a project helping develop communication systems, and everyone only spoke Spanish. I took a three-week intensive course and immersed myself in the community. After that, I was able to speak fluently quite quickly. Now, I am learning Mandarin, but I am not fluent. I hope within the next year I will be speaking fluent Mandarin."
