Today's class was the one I had been looking forward to all year long! Part of the TTMadrid TEFL program is to take an intro class in a super foreign language so you can feel what it's like (specifically emotionally) to be thrown into a language class that you pretty much don't understand at all... i.e. "Exactly what Chelsea gets her thrills from." ;)
The two languages we learned were Croatian and Farsi. I though I would be more excited about the Farsi, but Croatian turned out to be way cooler... Which was probably because the Croatian teacher was Es BAMF. She was bold and unapologetic, which are hilarious and awesome qualities in a language teacher! Here was the dialogue in Croatian we learned:
Dobar dan!
Dobar dan!
Kako se ti zoves? /zovesh/
Ja se zovem Chelsea.
Odakle si ti?
Ja sam iz Amerike.
Kako si ti?
Ja sam dobro. 😃
Ja sam loše. 😟 /losho/
Ja sam tako tako. 😐
Koliko imaš godina?
Ja imam 23 (dvadesettri) godina.
Doviđenja!
XOXO
