Difference between B1 and B2 level German.
B1 and B2 are both levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
At the B1 level, you can understand sentences and frequently used expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance (e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping, local geography, employment). You can also communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of information on familiar topics or activities.
At the B2 level, you can understand the main ideas of complex text on both concrete and abstract topics. You can interact with a degree of fluency so that communication is quite natural without having to search for words too often. You can express yourself clearly in more complex situations as well as spontaneously adjust to the needs of your conversation partner.
