Today, I'm not getting paid 400$ per month because I failed my Russian language proficiency test. Russian is my first language. FML

I guarantee that their are a lot of native English speakers would fail an English proficiency test to. You're test was probably just a bit two hard. Just except that you need too study harder and due better next time. Good luck.

Native speakers tend to have more improper grammar and usages of slang than those that learned a language in an educational environment. Learning a language naturally tends to leave more room for twisting the rules of that language's grammar. Those who learn a language in an educational setting end up learning rules of that language at the same time as they learn the language itself. Natural learning of a language tends to get the language before full understanding of the rules of that language is learned and understood.

Considering that you called it a dlpt I'm assuming you're in the US military. Just so you know they don't even do proficiency pay for Russian anymore. I know because I used to get paid for it until I retested this year, and passed, but then was told that it is no longer being paid for.

According to Google Translate: "Hu * in, dude. Russian means you know is not as good as we would like. Better luck next time."

According to my actual Russian skills: "That f*cking sucks, dude. It seems that you don't know Russian as well as you would like. Better luck next time."

Russian is also my first language, and I am trying very hard to re-learn it after forgetting much of it since coming to Canada. I hope I didn't make too many mistakes translating the comment above me.
