ok, so i tried out some of my spanish at supper tonight, and my most ungrateful child rolled his eyes and moaned and felt compelled to lead me through the 'correct' way to say each of the 4 words i uttered.......can't you say it like they said on the tape? he asked.......no, i cannot say it like that....i have no ear for language, just the desire to speak it......i apologize up front to the loyal opposition for my dismal accent, and ask that she not also roll her eyes............
