I lived in Germany for a while, and I hated speaking German, because I was so much more
comfortable in English.
But as soon I said even just ‘good morning’
and ‘can I have this or that’ in German
they were smiling at me.

I studied in high school, French, in college German, and then finally I decided to get
serious and I went to China to study Mandarin Chinese after college.

on what’s the best way for her to learn both languages.
So I’m focussed on the English, my wife’s focussed on the Japanese.
Oh wow, nice, thanks for the hug.
It’s just really important I think, not only so she can learn the language of her
mother countries, but also having a second language native-level fluency, it equips your
brain to learn even more languages down the road, and helps with brain health
later, if you need more motivation.
