I was just wondering about all the Europeans (excluding UK)… like do y’all understand… say, an American movie or TV as well as those in your national language?

I’d say I’m at a very fluent level when it comes to understanding and writing. Most of my media consumption is in English and I can understand it just as well as German. I even think in English sometimes.
Speaking is a slightly different story though. I can still communicate just fine, but my English becomes much less eloquent compared to my writing. I just don’t get to practice it very often and even when I do, it’s usually talking to other non-native speakers, so we’ll both be talking at a relatively basic level.
🤣
Lmao I literally seen this. My mom was like one time talking to someone from I think southeast asia, and she thought they spoke Chinese, but then it got awkward when they didn’t speak either Mandarin or Cantonese, so then they both talk with broken English lmfao, so awkward…
