it’s ok, learning a language is a stressful process. you sure will experience ups and downs all the time. it’s difficult to improve, and it may be even harder to maintain your language level. i don’t mean to offend you, but i do agree that you are overestimating your own level, too. and remember, people speak with thousands of different accents in different places in the world, and you’re in vancouver where there is such a huge mixing of peoples. just keep asking back. never pretend that you understand something when you really don’t; you’re only missing the opportunities to learn. besides, language skill is important in communication, but what’s more important is your attitude towards yourself and other people who you want to communicate with;-)
