Hi, I'm going to talk about communication breakdowns. When I talked with my host mother first time, I almost didn't understand her talk because I didn't know many words and Canada's culture. I was bitterly snd sad. I thought that I have to study hard and have to know about my host hamily's life.
I said to host mother ''I don't know many words, so sometimes I don't understand your talk.'' She smiled and said ''You are studying English now. Of couese you don't know many words. If so, you ask me that words meaning. Then you can understand my talk, right?'' She taught me about his sons experience. (Her sons coudn't speak English when she met them first time, but they can speak English very well now.) I think that maybe her feeling was not good, but she was very kindness for me. I was glad to her kindness.After that, if I don't know words, I always ask her. She always teach me it willingly. I have to learn many words in school and have many conversation opportunity in school. Then my words capacity broaden more and more.

返信削除Hi kana, I agree with your opinion because I can't understand many conversation with foreign country people. Also, someone is angry when I can't understand conversation so I want to study English skills more... In addition, we have to study it more...
