Thanks for your suggestion, that should really help. About the second spoken language, it is not that impressive in India. besides the fact that I lost my hearing later, and that too on one side. In India a grasp over three languages is usually the norm, proficiency of course varies. My native language is Bengali, though I picked up its written form fairly late. Mainly because my schooling was spread over a number of states and each has its own language.

Another round of thanks for initiating this nice thread, hope it helps you as much as it helped me.
