two yearsago, I barely knew my Mom's side of the family. This has all been a great blessing to me.That is an awesome legacy. You clearly take your responsibilities very seriously and I dare say your great great grandfather would be very proud...

I was also amazed by how easy it was to pick up the Italian I learned from Mom. I am not perfectly fluent, but in Italy I was told my accent was good and that I held my end of the conversation up pretty well

Anhelyna,
I keep my Italian up. I work pretty hard on my Spanish too. The Hebrew that the rest of my family comes by so easily just doesn't seem to stick for me though

I can cope in French , I understand more Portugese than I can actually speak now and as for Ukrainian - that is still a very very very very big struggle for me.
So much of learning a language is aural - and if you are deaf that's not easy
