Hi again, For the moment my son speaks mainly Dutch (being in contact with that language through me and my parents the most) and French (via his dad and daycare). He is 2 and a half and when he goes to kindergarten next year he will learn Luxembourgish (the official language of Luxembourg where we live). Later in primary school, classes are mainly taught in German and French is taken up as a first foreign language (so he will have an advantage on other kids there). Later on in high school English is added. I went through this system myself and speak now 7 languages. I must admit I also have a 'language brain' and my brother, who is more of a mathematics/technical brain is less eloquent in languages - still he gets by. We go with the OPOL system (one language one parent) - I have written about it Mindful Mimis last blog post..EU's bureaucracy keeps money away from developing countries

I think that is wonderful that you’re seeing to it that your daughter learns another language.

In all my life, I’ve never heard anyone say: “you know – I really do have a regret… “Oh yeah, Charlie, what is it?”

“Well, you know – I’m bilingual because my parents saw to it when I was young that I become proficient in another tongue.”

“That’s terrible Charlie.”

“Yeah, I know.”

Doesn’t happen.
