Besides those, I have also studied English, Japanese, Thai, and French. 英语是我现在最常用的外语；日语以前学得比较好， Yīngyǔ shì wǒ xiànzài zuì chángyòng de wàiyǔ; rìyǔ yǐqián xué de bǐjiào hǎo, English is the foreign language I use most often now; I used to be quite good at Japanese, 我考过日语能力考试 N1。现在我住在法国，所以我正在学习法语。 Wǒ kǎoguo rìyǔ nénglì kǎoshì N1. Xiànzài wǒ zhùzài fǎguó, suǒyǐ wǒ zhèngzài xuéxí fǎyǔ. I passed the JLPT N1. Now I live in France, so I am studying French. 我小学五年级开始学习英语。 Wǒ xiǎoxué wǔniánjí kāishǐ xuéxí yīngyǔ. I started learning English in fifth grade. 我的成绩一直很好，所以我也越来越喜欢英语。 Wǒ de chéngjì yìzhí hěn hǎo, suǒyǐ wǒ yě yuèláiyuè xǐhuan yīngyǔ. My grades were always good, so I liked English more and more. 不过，那时候我学习英语主要是为了考试。 Búguò, nà shíhou wǒ xuéxí yīngyǔ zhǔyàoshi wèi le kǎoshì. However, at that time I mainly studied English for exams. 虽然考试成绩不错，但第一次真正用英语和人交流的时候，我还是很紧张。 Suīrán kǎoshì chéngjì búcuò, dàn dìyīcì zhēnzhèng yòng yīngyǔ hé rén jiāoliú de shíhou, wǒ háishì hěn jǐnzhāng. Although my exam scores were good, I was still very nervous the first time I really communicated with someone in English. 后来，我去日本留学，认识了一些来自不同国家的朋友。 Hòulái, wǒ qù rìběn liúxué, rènshi le yìxiē láizì bùtóng guójiā de péngyou. Later, I went to Japan to study abroad and met friends from different countries. Complete scripts and video versions: find “Daily Chinese With Yuli” on YouTube.
