Usually, when I say porqué at home, my older brother would say, "no, it's pourquoi!"<br /><br />Because we learnt different languages in school, we have these ridiculous 'fights' over the languages.<br /><br />I also really like learning languages. Though, I have a problem with procrastination, I am getting better this year. I want to push myself more and more. My sentences can still be quite awkward with Spanish since I haven't specifically targeted practicing sentences. I'm also trying to watch more Spanish speaking YouTubers, use Duolingo (though their sentences can be weird sometimes) and try to practice the grammar? I keep procrastinating about that, though!<br /><br />I don't really have a special bond with Spanish. I do enjoy the language but I learn it more because I don't really want to lose an opportunity to learn a language. So why not continue to self study spanish after school? And I also feel jealous when I see latinas speaking Spanish on YouTube but I can't really catch up mainly because they seem to talk so fast.<br /><br />I also decided to pick up Korean. Now with that language, I have more of a special bond with but I need to be fluent in Spanish FIRST.<br /><br />I can't wait to be bilingual. Then I'll get to rant about #bilingualproblems on twitter but I'm also lowkey scared of losing some of my English vocabulary.<br /><br />I hope you become bilingual soon as well!

Keep going, keep...Hannah, all I can say is: GO YOU. Keep going, keep learning and keep inspiring. I can relate to this post so much, being of French ethnicity as well. My grandparents were French-Canadian immigrants, originally from France of course, when you trace it back. I too have always felt that personal connection you talked about, and that is what lead me to learn the language as well. (I wish we lived closer, there's so much you could teach me!) My husband and I were just in France and I was kind of stoked that I could order food and have simple convos in French, but you've inspired me to dedicate more time to learning the language! Keep following your dream... can't wait to see where it takes you!<br /><br />KateK.A.

Thank you for being someone who appreciates languages. : ) <br />Also, I'm learning Latin this year for fun and absolutely loving it.
