Never apologize for not speaking a language perfectly. Odds are most of us know a little bit of a few languages. Like myself, for example I was born in the United States so my native language is English. However, I have studied Spanish for almost six years, so for the most part I can understand it quite well. Speaking it is a little more difficult. I know very little German and I am starting to learn basic Japanese. It is giving me a bit of trouble though. In that language you sometimes inflect your pronunciation at the end of a word and then other times do not. The inflection of the word can make the entire meaning change. So it is very difficult getting used to. Although, I have heard that it is in fact English that is the hardest language to learn. So who knows? Typically what I do when someone posts on SG and they are not fluent in English I try my best to communicate with them in their native language at all possible. I also do not hold it against them if their translations are not perfect. There is no such thing as perfection. When all else fails there are tons on internet translators on the internet to help if we are ever in need additional assistance. I hope you have a great day! Keep blogging. Never let a language barrier stop you!

I wish I could speak German! lol never hv to apologize for screwing up a foreign language if you're trying. I did a study abroad in Paris and for the first few weeks butchered it despite being able to read and write it It's just so hard sometimes. You do fine.
