A general community for asking and answering questions about other countries and cultures.
Please state which country you're answering for when you answer a post.
My family's language, Gujarati. I'm a third gen immigrant (UK/US) and for Reasons, I didn't get taught the language as a kid. It's not one of those languages you find on Duolingo or at the community college or anything either. It's a real bummer not being able to connect with your elders.
In the meanwhile, I studied Chinese in college and Spanish in high school, both in the US. I know (or knew, at one point) just enough to get myself around while traveling.
