i can barely speak English

we're lame,
most of us. we know one
language.
and barely get that one
right half
the time.
grammar and spelling
seems to be
a lost art
on several generations.
most of the world
knows two or three
languages.
crossing borders is no
problem
for them.
my friend Rimute in
Switzerland
knew five,
French, German, Italian,
Russian and Dutch,
but sadly, not mine.
