Words

What words do you want to learn? Words to travel with, words that are beautiful, words that tickle your fancy, words that mean peace…What words?

Haven't decided yet...

I was thinking of learning words that I could use to communicate with people I meet who are from these places.

So maybe… Please, Thank You, Can I help? Can you help me? Hungry, Thirsty, Tired, Lost, Hot, Cold…

Then maybe some basic words like Good, Beautiful, A little, A lot, Yes, No, I don’t know…

And perhaps the phrase “my hovercraft is full of eels.”

Another thought...

How about learning the name of each language in its own language? Like Francais, Deutsch, Espanol…

buzzy

Is that 100 words in 10 languages each, or 100 words total?

And have you done it? :)
