When It Comes to Language 鈥� 鈥淪peaking Perfectly鈥�

Is Your Enemy

颅

I鈥檓 from the United States and, many years ago, lived in Mexico on a college exchange program. I went there on a spur-of-the-moment decision and stayed for almost four months.

When I arrived, I could barely say the word 鈥榯aco,鈥� but after a few weeks of intensive 3-hour-a-day classes, I began to pick up the language.

The family I lived with spoke no English, which made the first month extremely challenging. It forced me to use my broken Spanish combined with gestures and pantomimes. As a result, I was quite the entertainer. At dinner, I鈥檇 stare into the distance as I formulated a simple sentence, and when they saw that, they鈥檇 all set down their forks, sit patiently, and await my statement, usually something benign like 鈥淔ood good鈥� or 鈥淪chool fun.鈥� 鈥淢uy Bien, Brian!鈥� they鈥檇 say after I spoke.

Locals attended the same school and as my command of the language improved, I made friends. They took me to their homes, showed me their town, and we shared tips on our respective languages. I鈥檒l forever be grateful that they taught me to 鈥榯ry鈥� and not worry so much about tenses and conjugations 鈥� and to just get the message across.
