If you were dropped off in a foreign country, and you knew their language fluently.... but only could communicate using one mode of communication — reading, writing, speaking or listening.... which would you choose to survive being there ?
That would be pretty difficult only having one and not the coordinating one (reading and writing vs. speaking and listening/hearing). I guess I'd probably have to choose writing. At least then I could show some notebook to the person I'm communicating with. They might think I'm deaf and mute, but at least they'd know what I want. The problem would be that if they tried to write a response back, I wouldn't know how to understand it. Quite problematic and they'd be very perplexed.

If you could speak an additional language fluently (above the one(s) you already speak), which one would it be and why?
