I forgot how to speak in Catalan
Hi everybody!
Could anyone correct the next following text I’ve written wrote this morning, please?
It’s 5am on April 8, 2016.
I’m sitting on at my desk thinking and writing about what happened to me yesterday during my English lesson on Italki with Jonathan. It was a very funny situation. Let me explain why…
Before my lesson I spent about an hour studying English, then I contacted with my English teacher and we were talking about the American educational system, specially about the new SAT (a college entrance exam).
The conversation turned to language learning and I told him how I had been able to learn Catalan by myself while living in Galicia and decided to move to Catalonia. He asked me to speak Catalan for a short time and I was unable to do it! I went completely blank! I couldn’t believe it! I couldn’t even say “my name is Conchi” (“Em dic Conchi).
This was such an unusual situation that lasted about for a couple of hours, and I have to say that I still can’t build an entire phrase in Catalan yet! I’m thinking in English! This is good for me because I want to learn English, but I live in Catalonia and people speak Catalan here! I need to communicate!
Anyways I guess things will return to normal when I get to the library ( I work in a public library) in a couple of hours, when I start to listen to my co-workers speaking in Catalan and myself I have to communicate… I’ll let you know.
..........................................
3.5 houres later:
Yes. I can speak Catalan again! What a relief!
