April 23, 2012 at 10:16 PMIt reminds me some lyrics of The Pretenders :
"Every drop that run through the vein
Always makes it's way back to the heart again
And by the way you look fantastic
In your boots of Chinese plastic" ;o)

In the sense of proficiency, "fluency" encompasses a number of related but separable skills:
Reading: the ability to easily read and understand texts written in the language;
Writing: the ability to formulate written texts in the language;
Comprehension: the ability to follow and understand speech in the language;
Speaking: the ability to produce speech in the language and be understood by its speakers.
