My advice is to not get hung up on all of the masculine feminine differences that you will see with the Rosetta stone...learn nouns and verbs. I learned almost enough to get by as a traveler in Poland and all of the nouns and verbs help with the girls. We have also learned a lot of words while being here with the girls. Some of the words that have really helped-street, store, car, train, all of the colors, numbers, good, not good, listen, breakfast, lunch, dinner, drink, eat, sleep, goodnight, good morning, and of course I love you! For example i will say be careful there are lot of samochod (car)-that way they know I am talking about a car and I can't tell you how quickly they pick up on the rest. I was so worried about the language-but it is amazing how well we communicate with each other. In fact the younger one told the social worker she speaks perfect English:) What you are doing is great and the more you know the better off you will be!Ramiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07519580449440902037noreply@blogger.com
