It is funny, in a sharable way. Thanks for the story! I have the very same problem in speaking my languages. FR, DE, RU, ES, I struggle in all to actively recall what I can passively read. So I stumble and move slow, though all four I can watch without translation (sometimes JP too, but not always).
For me, it's bc of being a translator. I'm like an old-timey seamstress, with one huge thigh from pedaling the machine.
My ability to read is pretty good. Across all four Euro languages. Writing slower, but reasonable. Speaking? Useless. It's very annoying.
I've been working on it in an unusual way, though. I read a text in Russian, get my understanding, and then speak it into an interpreter in my phone. I'm doing so well, I'm going to start using it for the others. Instant feedback is great: did it transcribe correctly? What did it get wrong?
