The skill levels are analogous to those on Wikipedia:Babel in combining two-letter country codes with skill levels (1 to 5, and N):

Meaning of skill levels:

  • 1: basic ability – enough to understand written material or simple questions in this language.
  • 2: intermediate ability – enough for editing or discussions.
  • 3: advanced level – though you can write in this language with no problem, some small errors might occur.
  • 4: 'near-native' level – although it's not your first language from birth, your ability is something like that of a native speaker.
  • 5: professional proficiency – you are able to answer language usage questions that may be asked by native speakers.
  • N: native speaker
