Partially Fluent (adj.) — A descriptive term in psycholinguistics and second-language acquisition referring to an intermediate proficiency state in which an individual demonstrates functional communicative competence but exhibits measurable limitations in lexical retrieval, syntactic accuracy, or automaticity of speech production. Partial fluency is characterized by the ability to convey intended meaning across routine contexts while still relying on compensatory strategies—such as circumlocution, increased processing time, or simplified structures—to offset incomplete linguistic mastery.

He's pro-life, anti-LGBTQPIA2S+, anti-DEI, and anti-Sailor Moon. He forgets that DEI and affirmative action are the reason he got accepted into Yale.
Did you hear that Thurgood Partial tried to ban Sailor Moon and Steven Universe because they promote DEI? Dude forgets why and how he got accepted into Yale. He wasn't a scholar or scholar athlete.
