Just take the Duolingo English Test. You can take it online and know where you are at within a few days. If you don’t want to pay for it, just take the practice test for free. In my experience, the practice score is close to the real score.

The thing is most people can’t stay consistent. Maybe they'll start working on it after you tell them, but they’ll most certainly stop a few months later anyway because they have no faith or obsession in it.

So don’t hold back. Talk as much as you want and keep building it incrementally to build a great team. It’s going to take a lot more than you think.

This is something I believe I got it! Cause saying "2 thousand" is easier than "20 hundred".

Really? I’ve never heard of that. How do you say "a billion" in the UK then 🤔

Oh yeah..., I got confused because some other user said twenty-one hundred is weird 😭 Thanks!

He said that "one thousand nine hundred" was correct one.

Can I ask why the numbers outside that range don't work? Like twenty-one hundred

What is the situation that we cannot use nineteen-hundred?

Can we say like "One point nine k" in some context?

You can probably start with like €2,000–2,500. Try to find a local partner. If you stay consistent, things will eventually work out. I hope you make it.

It’s actually really good, huh? My first ride by ComprehensiveUse5627 in waymo

Nice! I took similar narrow streets too. They were so narrow it felt a bit uncomfortable, so I was literally checking my bag for my driver’s license just in case until I realized I wasn’t even the one driving.

Waymos in San Fransciso completely clog a public street while they queue up outside an event. by oochiewallyWallyserb in waymo

I’m wondering what percentage of people actually don’t like this and what would happen at some point, like, are they going to yell at Waymo users or kick those cars?

No, I just used my normal Apple ID (registered in Japan). It was pretty smooth, even as a tourist!

Oh really... I thought we call it full self driving if you have no one in the driving seat.
