What is your Paco score? (4 Viewers)

Basically, you have something called a Paco factor (Paco 1, Paco 2, etc...), and you multiply the number of languages in each Paco group by the given Paco factor and find the sum of all of them to get the Paco score.
Ex.
Paco 1
Arabic, Russian, Serb/Croatian (3 languages in total)
(Here I have three languages, so I multiply by the three languages by Paco factor 1 to get 3. Do the same for all the rest.)
This is actually quite believable, Martin.

First, we have Paco levels. For every language, select the highest Paco level you can master in that language. That becomes your Paco proficiency in the language.
Paco 1 - did I hear something?
(would move out of the way of someone with a gun and yelling very loud)
Thailand
Paco 2 - it’s just like language x right?
(understanding the Emergency Exit sign)
none
Paco 3 - somo tehm words re no tspel correct
(one in five-ish in a sentence)
none
Paco 4 - small subset, no grammar
(can read the sports section-ish)
none
Paco 5 - kinda sorta wanted to learn it once
(could speak three sentences in a row if my life depended on it)
Japan
Paco 6 - heard it on the telly
(roughly got tone and grammar but have to translate words from a related language)
Malay,Hongkong Chinese
Paco 7 - omfg pwnage
(native)
Indonesia,Chinese, English
1xpaco1 + 1xpaco5 + 2*paco6 + 7*paco3 = 39
oh, I also knew how to speak other dialects, such as tw dialects, indonesia java dialects, etc. unfortunately it doesn't count eh.
