What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

186

I had a good workout in Dutch yesterday, as I tried to get to the bottom of what has been going on in the life of my mother. It centers about a family issue that predates the Second World War. And it involves the wider family.


I’m grateful to be able to converse in a mixture of English, Dutch and sometimes German. So I was able to carry out an interview that I recorded, and afterwards edited. Hopefully, it shall prove to my siblings that Mum is not at all “confused”. Rather, she expresses herself 'as clear as a bell'.
