When I first arrived in the country, I really didn't speak much of the language. I knew two words coming here, and they were 'Hello' and 'Shut up.'
I learned my English from Keith Spurgeon. He had some small children, and I was young, too, and so we spoke the language together, and it was fantastic.
I'm terrible at languages. I'm trying to learn Spanish. I tried to learn French as a kid.
Tamil for me is my cousin Esha. I even told her that I was preparing to play a Tamilian and asked her if she could teach me the language.
I have a wonderful English-language dialogue coach. All the time I have to speak English, he is with me. It is a double effort, because you have to say the words correctly and then act them.
I've never learned to speak a foreign language with ease.
I'd love to master another language properly.
I have a B.A. in Spanish, so briefly I thought that somebody might pay me to speak Spanish badly in another country, like Norway.
I speak English, Portuguese, and French. One day I'd love to learn Italian.
I might have some Danish lessons sometimes.
I learned Spanish as my second language from middle school through high school. I grew up volunteering at homeless shelters and tutoring kids of Latin immigrants in Atlanta, who didn't speak any English. That prepared me for when I traveled.
I don't know Arabic. I can't speak or write it.
I have an interest in languages and make an effort to learn.
I've been trying to learn Spanish, but it has been hard for me. It's a slow process, but I'm trying.
