I had a couple friends who were raised to only speak English at home because their parents wanted them to be fluent and native sounding. One of them, the parents only ever learned basic English so as a concequence it is difficult to communicate any complexity. And functionally no communication with extended family.

That’s a very old fashioned viewpoint and now we know extra languages dont ultimately prevent acquisition, although it can slow thing down a bit at first for an individual language.

I think knowing other languages at any level is only a good thing and kids can learn so much easier.

I’d like a way to disable all the various way too bright indicator lights.


2000mL of water weighs 2kgs and 355mL weighs about 1/3kg.

To get my mind away from stupid imperial measures of weight, I think of bottles and cans of cola.

(Above is very approximate as sugar, packaging etc have weight. And conventional package size can vary by region.)
