Currently there are numerous studies on the category of fluency, both on speed parameters and on the respective hesitation/delay phenomena that come into play in less fluent or non-fluent speech. This article deals with the complexity of fluency in the context of foreign language teaching and learning. First the definition of fluency is addressed. In a further step, the concept of fluency in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages will be discussed. Following this, the results of a pilot survey will be presented, one of the aims of which was to record foreign language learners’ perspectives on this category.
