From another perspective you only need to know 2,000 words to be considered fluent. That is to say, at least in English, 2,000 words are used 95% of the time. For Dovahzul I'd say that number would be smaller, especially if people make an effort to use the canon vocabulary as much as they can, which consist of around 600 words.

Regardless of how many words one would need for "fluency", this is pretty damn impressive.

Congratulation. The geometry dash subzero dictionary changed my life.

Not my case, but still, if we only had to use positive words, the world would be a better place to live in.
