The thread about fluency in one's constructed language(s) has taken on a very interesting shape.
It seems to work well for increasing fluency, and it's very much fun.
Therefore, I thought I'd bring the concept here, as long as I'm allowed to.

What do we do? Well, many of us probably know more than one language.
Often, many of these languages will be languages we practice, rather than mother tongues.

To get some practice, a thread like this can be very giving. I know it works for me.

So, how does it work? Well, you simply write something in a language you wish to practice.
Write this in bold. Below, you write the English translation in normal font weight.
This way, anybody can join in, even if they do not speak the same language as you.
This is more or less a thread for discussions about just about anything, while practicing languages.

Any language you're practicing can be used, but let's keep our constructed ones in the devoted thread.
Without further ado, allow me to start the thread:
