What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

206

It has become apparent to me that I have a legacy to leave—and my mother too.

Mum has diary in Dutch from the war. She wants to leave her story for the grandchildren. And so I shall go through it with her, turning the handwritten script into type, and then translating the Dutch into English. I’ll do the same for the book that Coen Cornelissen is writing about Mum’s father.

And then of course, there’s Uni-verse-all-language. I’ve got to get that off the ground!

All in all, then, a nice bit of work ahead for the two of us.
