That is so cool Romany. Dreaming in French actually sounds like the most restful language to sleep through.
How many languages do you know?
In my family it is freaky words and accents. We still used the odd Arabic word like shway shway. Hubby still says some nasty stuff to me in Arabic that horrified my Arabic neighbours one day. Not that we ever spoke the language just knew enough to get by. Actually I still have no idea what he is saying to me.
(phonetic: al shalmoota?) Can you tell me? I know it’s rude as it is always in response to me saying some dude on TV is cute or something. He was in Saudi a lot longer than me, funny how he thought he was the boss for about 5 minutes after getting off the plane.
A visiting caseworker was amazed that every single foster child (out of 7) had a different accent. Me with a heavy R sound (like a yank), hubby Kiwi, son uses Maori words cause he’s a show off and my daughter sounds more Aussie than your average Aussie.
Our family all speak in a strange non descriptive way and without looking in anyones eyes. We have learnt to do this so as to discuss a child without letting the child know to avoid any hurt feelings.
“oh that little short blonde thing returned with certain livestock on scalp and if anyone was clever they would go check for themselves probably before doing anything much else really”.
And no one reacts immediately. Actually I could scream that the house on fire and my family would sit their making sure a kid didn’t think we were discussing them.
