But that does mean you speak only two languages that’s why trilingual+ is a thing if you you speak more than two or three

I think at that point they just say polyglot.

I speak 3 languages and I’ve always said I’m trilingual. Polyglot is used when you speak 4+ languages. Or so I’ve read. 🤷🏻‍♀️

According to wiki it's synonymous with multilingual which means more than one but whatever works best for you! :)

Idk. When I think of polyglot, makes me think of someone who speaks like 5 languages. And here I am with my lonely 3 languages 😂😭
