Today I attended "pratar bara svenska" group on zoom. I've been studying about sex månader nu! I understand more than I can speak. So I listen and try to formulate sentences. It just doesn't seem to flow because I have no one to speak with & I think in "DUOLINGO" sentences only! ARGH!!! Then I was asked in Swedish "Har du några frågar". I responded without thinking. "Ja, jag har en fråga men jag kan inte säga det på svenska". It was the first time It just flowed out of my mouth, i didn't have to think, it was a natural response. I'm giddy, happy, elated, jumping up for Joy! Woo Hoo, Yippee!

If a tree falls in a forest , does it still make a sound? Did anybody hear me!

I'm going to continue on, give it my best & slog on with dignity as my friend Kathy would say!

Thank you Journaly for hearing me!
