Hey everybody, I have 6 new videos up and they are all part of
my new YouTube video playlist series called "Autism Multilingual".
I talk about my autism in different languages and the languages I
have talked about my autism in so far are English (obviously),
Italian, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, and Thai. Hope everybody
enjoys all the videos. If any of you have YouTube accounts
please reply to this AND underneath my video on YouTube.
For those who don't you can just reply to this. Thanks.

Go to my channel to check out my playlist video series:

Thai:
Hey Cesare, looks like you've improved. I recommend working on your tones, and not mixing English words in
unless they are loan words with Thai pronunciation. Good job!

Spanish:
Wow - I understood all of it. Very nice. I urge you to learn the numbers, and the past tenses. Keep up the good work

No, I think it's better not to make judgements of fluency, since everyone has a different definition. But yes, please
work on tones and avoiding English words. You want to get your Thai up to speed with your Spanish, right?

I know but do you believe me when I said that I am fluent in Thai but need to work on some
things? I know everyone has different definitions but do you believe me when I just said that I am fluent in
Thai? I am not saying you have to change your definition but do you believe me when I say I am fluent in
Thai
despite anything?

Cesare,

maybe you could read this thread:

Language competence

It could maybe help you self-evaluate your skills. I read your post somewhere on this forum, where you said, that you feel some people who don't agree with you when it comes to you being fluent in this or that language do so because you suffered from autism. I don't think anyone smart enough to study a foreign language would ever do that. It's just their point of view.

It is interesting to see how you manage to remember many different words and to some extent their sound in a lot of different languages, but I think we do something a little bit different here on this forum.

Best of luck to you and please try to understand that we are trying to achieve two different things.

Why don't you speak urdu, kyrgiz, kazakh, kurdish tatar, albanian, pashto or
azerbaidjaini on your vid?
How can you actually speak those languages?
How did you learn them?

Hey well I AM fluent in those 8 languages and I know I am. In
fact I have several others that I really need to work on as well. I just read the thread and I do have the
same qualities as the qualities that is said on the first post to imply for fluency.
I hope you understand and thanks for the nice and considerate
comment.
