What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

Who would get up at 5 a.m. on a Saturday simply to get in a couple of hours writing about the joys of language learning? Well, um, moving right along—

My backlog includes a couple of links. The first article discusses whether or why the British are the worst learners of foreign languages. Being an island nation, and being requires to learn French at school does the English no favours, it seems.

The second article ranks non-English nations in terms of English proficiency. Four Nordic countries plus the Netherlands head the list.

Back to my real writing for the day—
