OH TERRA,
I FORGOT TO ASK YOU THIS ONE TOO, DO YOU HAVE TO TAKE A FOREIGN LANGUAGE IN SCHOOL IN MALAWI? IF YOU DO, WHAT LANGUAGE DO YOU HAVE TO TAKE? HERE WE HAVE TO TAKE SPANISH, BUT IT'S REALLY EASY! ALSO, WHAT PERCENTAGE OF PEOPLE DO YOU THINK SPEAK ANOTHER OR DIFFERENT LANGUAGE THAN ENGLISH? I THINK IT'S REALLY COOL TO SPEAK A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU THE CHANCE TO BE BILINGUAL.
SINCERELY MEEE,
RACHEL :)
Hey Rachel!
We take French in school which I think is really stupid because they don't teach Chichewa which is what the local people speak and most of the kids have grown up here all their life. But anyway the language classes here are really good and we actually learn stuff. I can speak a tiny bit of french and if I stayed here longer I would probably get really good at it. Most of the kids are also from different countries around the world since it's an international school so most of them know English and another language. One of my friends is Greek so she speaks it fluently and her parents don't speak good English so she learned English by speaking with other kids and watching Disney movies! I would say about 95% speak another/different language than English so it's really high. I almost feel stupid around all the people at my school because I can only speak English! Well this is getting really long so I'll stop now!
