Just in order to keep my user page in a manageable size... -.-

Rant
OK, I don't exactly understand this "Babel" level thing. I wrote my dissertation in English, so my first thought was en-5 (professional level), but then en-4 says "your ability is something like that of a native speaker"???

What kind of profession must one work for in order to claim en-5, a professional translator at UN or something? Being "something like a native speaker" is a near-impossible achievement. You can be a professor of English literature and not be able to speak like a native.

Well... whatever. :)
