I love Pride and Prejudice, but my favorite of her novels is Emma. It’s awesome that you get to teach a class on it though!!

Thank you so much!

It’s really not that impressive when you consider that I actually have to use all of the languages on a regular basis. I don’t just know a language for the fun of it, I need to know them. ASL sounds like so much fun! I’d love to learn it, but I don’t think I’d be able to learn it quickly without regular…[Read more]

Thank you!

That’s a bit of a tough question, because I rarely get to read more than one or two books from the same author. But of the ones I have read more, some of my favorite authors that come to mind are Jane Austen, Eloise Jarvis McGraw, Francine Rivers, Karen Kingsbury, Dee Henderson, and Arthur Conan Doyle.

I’d be happy to help. 🙂

Thank you!!! I live in the northern part of the state of Chihuahua. It’s actually only a 2 or 3 hour drive to The US.

I can’t really imagine knowing one language. But in my culture, you can’t really survive without knowing at least two. Well you can, but then you can’t interact very well with anyone who doesn’t speak your…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Wow, that’s amazing that you’re creating your own languages. The very idea is terrifying to me. Even if I tried, I’d end up with something way too similar to one of the languages I speak to be anything I actually invented. But it’s so cool that you’re doing that. And not just one, but several. If you ever…[Read more]

Thank you!!!

It is pretty fun, I’d say. I will sometimes switch between two languages in a single conversation, or even in a single sentence, because one language will express something a lot better than the other. As much as I love English, the German dialect has some expressions that can’t be translated in the same way into another.

Yep, four. The language the culture I live in speaks is a pretty rare dialect of German, and then I speak regular German, English, and Spanish. Spanish is the only one I really had to work on learning though, and I probably wouldn’t have if I didn’t live in a country where it’s the main language. I tried to learn French once upon a…[Read more]

I thought I would introduce myself. I am a 19-year-old girl from Mexico. Or more specifically, the lovely (albeit dry) state of Chihuahua.

I love Jesus and music and books and coffee and a bunch of other things. My hobbies include playing the piano and cello, reading, writing, playing with my adorably rambunctious dog, sewing, cooking,…[Read more]
