I learned Spanish in high school, and while I can still read it ok spoken Spanish is usually to fast for me to follow.

I can also speak basic Japanese (started learning in college and continued on my own), but while I learned the syllabaries I only know a very few characters, so I can't write it.

Between the two, that's one whole language at a basic level.
