[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What those handing out awards don't know, or perhaps care, is that YY kids try to speak English to their Chinese teachers about half the time. [/quote] This is true in pretty much any secondary language situation. We try to use as much Japanese at home as possible with the kids, but they will much more often than not respond in English, not Japanese. That doesn't mean they don't comprehend what we said, it's just more natural to respond in English.[/quote] +1 My bilingual Korean kids do the same.[/quote]
