[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine did. However it did produce some issues with writing, not reading. I suppose it depends on the language. Both of my kids read/write/speak English and German. They are now college/high school. Both struggle (still) with English spelling--German is much more straightforward in that way, although the language is grammatically more complex.[/quote] Thank you for responding! Our second language is German and while the child speaks it, I wondered if introducing “ch” and “sch” as in ach nein and Schule would confuse the phonetic principles the child learned in “church” and “sheep” if that makes sense.[/quote]
