The Interagency Language Roundtable scale is a set of descriptions of abilities to communicate in a language. It is the standard grading scale for language proficiency in the Federal service. It was originally developed by the Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR), which included representation by United States Foreign Service Institute, the predecessor of the National Foreign Affairs Training Center (NFATC). It grades people's language proficiency on a scale of 0-5. The designation 0+, 1+, 2+, 3+, or 4+ is assigned when proficiency substantially exceeds one skill level and does not fully meet the criteria for the next level. This totals 11 possible grades. Grades may be assigned separately for different skills such as reading, speaking, listening, writing, translation, audio translation, interpretation, and intercultural communication. For some of these skills, the level may be seen abbreviated, for example S-1 for Speaking Level 1. ==ILR Level 0 – No proficiency == The baseline level of the scale is no proficiency, rated 0. The following describes the traits of an ILR Level 0 individual: * oral production limited to occasional, isolated words * may be able to ask questions or make statements with reasonable accuracy only with memorized utterances or formulae * unable to read connected prose but may be able to read numbers, isolated words and phrases, personal and place names, street signs, office and shop designations * understanding limited to occasional isolated words or memorized utterances in areas of immediate needs. * may be able to produce symbols in an alphabetic or syllabic writing system or 50 of the most common characters 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ILR scale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
