Our teacher soothed us today with the idea that we already speak many languages. We sometimes talk to each other in hoots and half-grunts. I might talk to colleagues using languages of measurement or analysis and Carol says things I don't understand when she works. I swear a lot with some friends; Carol coos a lot at babies. We just naturally use different words and sounds and speak in different ways when we are in different contexts. Certainly with all this practice and nature ability, we will start speaking Brazilian Portuguese just fine any moment now...
