"Modern languages are not just about acquisition of language, but about circulation of ideas.

We forget that our medical knowledge (physiology, cardiology, the body and wellbeing) came from North Africa and the Middle East…

That knowledge arrived through translation and transformed our culture.”

Italian Speaking Practice

One reason speaking #Italian can be tricky is that by its very nature it requires at least one other person. But finding people to talk to is easier than you might think, no matter where you live.

One of the first things #French students learn is two ways to say "you." In some cases, the choice between 'tu' and 'vous' is obvious, but sometimes it's more of an art than a science - even native speakers don't always know which one to use. Learn more in Lawless French à fond:

The linguistic term "register" is used to categorize some aspect of language (word, expression, grammatical construction) by how formal or informal it is. #French has 6 registers, 4 of which are considered 'bon usage' (proper French).
