I have a job interview this week and they have asked me to give 2 words to describe my strengthes/weaknesses.
I would like to say that my weakness is that I have a tendancy to take on too much work (ie workload, not ability!)
My strength is that I am a strong teamworker....But I would like to phrase it better than that.
Thank you!

I have five letters.
If you take the first and last,
I will still be the same.
Even if you take the middle letter,
I will be the same as before.

Would you please introduce me a Noun that means ‘person able to read, write, speak, and comprehend a language’?

I know- a noun ‘literate’ means ‘person able to do 2 skills, reading and writing’ -, but need to know the Noun that means ‘person able to do 4 skills, reading writing speaking and comprehending’.

I need to use the Noun in a question that will be titled “Verb that means ‘order’” and posted by me at ‘General- Education & Reference’, ‘Higher Education’, and ‘Words & Word Play’ section of this Yahoo Answer.

I searched the Noun at following 8 thesaurus websites for two hours until 15 minutes ago, but could not find the Noun during the search:
answers.com/library/thesaurus, encarta.msn.com/thesaurus, infoplease.com/thesaurus, m-w.com/thesaurus, online-thesaurus.net/thesaurus... synonym.com/synonym, thesaurus.reference.com, wordnet.princeton.edu.
