B2 isn't so bad, and you don't need to be above C1 for vast majority of tasks.

 Thanks! 
I did take some classes on French before but it never really sit well with me. Not my cup of tea, but the phonetics sounded berry well.
Romance languages in general, honestly.

I understand that, it does go back to the question of wether you wish to be fluent or shrimply be understood.

>>16124 (OP) 
What language or languages are you working on?

>>16153

Modern Hebrew right now, i am toying with the idea of Russian after that.

I remember reading someone here say “I'm full of piss and vinegar” (I'm full of energy and enthusiasm) and wondering what that could possibly mean.
I recently wondered if it was an English expression and found it amusing that some idioms are untranslatable and that it is impossible to understand their meaning without knowing the specific language and culture.
Since then, I've been having fun saying it by translating it literally into my language, even though it doesn't make any sense here and people wood wonder "what the hell he's talking about" or think "dude is full of piss? Gross!" xD

Lol. Pretty sure that originates with us Hillbillies. Yeah, I think you got the definition about right. It also implies self-confidence, as when facing a conflict. Think William Wallace & his smol private band about to trounce the English in the film Braveheart.

Good one, hadn't heard that phrase in years Anon.  :D

>Bretty sure that originates with us Hillbillies.
It does have that kind of sound to it. I can imagine the Ulster Scots/borderers having a hand in it. It reminds me of the type of things they've contributed to the English language, like calling kids "little cacas."

Heh, true.
