They probably know enough to understand basic sentences, like my foreign language education in Spanish. Reading it, they probably understand enough parts to figure out what it's saying, or at least can look up stuff they don't understand. Hearing it is usually harder because of vernacular, and because it tends to be faster than they can process it. For example, when Mamare had his Q&As on 4chan, his responses took a while because he'd have to figure out what was being asked. He just responded in Japanese because he knew that there'd be someone around that would be able to translate it. (The translator in the end was Jin, a native French speaker, I believe. Mamare noted that he was known on the Japanese community as "that French LH fan," or something.)

William, KR (quadrilingual, and I'd be surprised if English wasn't one of those languages), likely Kanami, and Leonardo (no way!) are probably the four most fluent in English. I think Shiroe might be like me, except flipped, and he has an education in English whereas I have none for Japanese. It was mentioned that he used translators and the like.

When does Tet mention the test server being the moon? I couldn't find it in the web novel.
