<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lemme Caution, post: 2905468, member: 90575&quot;]You are so very right about losing the capabilities in a particular language if you stop using it on a regular basis, and the longer the situation prevails the more of that language begins to fade from your memory. I started as a German speaker, then learned English by attending English-speaking schools, moved to America at eighteen in 1965 and have been here ever since. Now English is my &quot;natural&quot; language and German has become much more of a struggle. I can still understand and read everything auf Deutsch, but my German vocabulary has contracted quite considerably and writing it also no longer comes easily. It is what is, und damit basta. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie59" alt=":joyful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
