<p><b>Levels of Fluency</b>
<br />
Level 1: You can only use and understand one-word sentences.
<br />
Level 2: You can use and understand three-word sentences in the present tense.
<br />
Level 3: You still have a three-word limit, but articles ('the', 'an', 'my') don't count toward the three-word limit, and you can use past-tense verbs.
<br />
Level 4: You can use and understand five-word sentences: articles and conjunctions ('and' and 'but') don't count toward the limit. You can use any verb tense, but you can't use or understand simile or metaphor.
<br />
Level 5: Your speech is accented and sometimes halting. You are unrestricted in daily speech, but can't use or understand metaphors or advanced technical terms.
<br />
Level 6: Unrestricted fluency.</p>
<p>A PC untrained in Linguistics who encounters a regional language can make a Linguistics check. On 10 or more, he has Level 1 fluency. One trained in Linguistics can make a similar check, gaining Level 1 fluency on a 10 or more - or Level 2 on a 20 or more. Continued daily exposure to that language allows another Linguistics check (DC 20) in 1 day, then 1 week, then 1 month, then every 3 months afterward. Each success grants a level of fluency.</p>
<p>You can apply the usual +2/-2 modifier for languages you feel are particularly similar/dissimilar to the PCs' native language.</p>I'll suggest a homebrew alternative for you, DungeonmasterCal: it's how Linguistics work in my post-apocalyptic Earth campaign.

IV. On holy days thou shalt spend the whole day in drunkenness, public urination and wagering at fixed dice games. Go not to the temple.
<br />
V. Dishonor thy father and thy mother. On Mother's Day, get a tattoo that says 'Who cares?'
<br />
VI. Thou shalt kill, but then, thou wast planning to, whether I gaveth or withheld permission.
<br />
VII. Get married. Otherwise thou may inadvertently <i>not</i> commit adultery.
<br />
VIII. Thou shalt not... hey, where's my wallet?

IX. Thou shalt get elected to public office.
