[quote=Anonymous]One suggestion, if you decide to make the move. You can now buy handheld translation devices that can operate on-line or off-line. The translation capabilities are better when on-line (because of a larger dictionary available). You might want to get each of your children one. While they will learn English relatively quickly, it will make the transition easier for them if they have a way to communicate and help ease the transition to learning a second language. Plus, it will help in emergencies or when communicating in a timely fashion is important. Sometimes foreign language students can get into trouble when their language skills are not up to the situations that they find themselves in. Good luck.[/quote]
