Mich ein Tag Sprechen Hübsch

This week when we read Why My Mother Can’t Speak English and Me Talk Pretty One Day, I found myself relating more to the latter. I took a year of French my sophomore year which I was just dreadful at. I found myself frequently turning to my good friend, Christian, who sat next to me asking him questions. True, I wasn’t in school much due to my medical issues, but something tells me even if I was there, I would still be terrible at it. My junior year, I decided to take German since a lot of my friends took it and I already had Herr Sedore for a math class. I absolutely love German! It took me the whole first semester to really get good at it. Herr Sedore speaks majority in German for us to get used to the language. Much like David in Me Talk Pretty One Day, I would hear: Hallo, meine Damen und Herren. Haben Sie askjfdhsa heute? Gut! It was with a lot of practice and patience, I could fully listen, read, and write German. Now, speaking….that’s a different story :P
