Languages (Muse Writing #4)
Sep. 5th, 2022 11:46 pmPrompt/Question: "Muse, how many languages can you speak?"
...
I'm not the woman to talk languages with. I was never one to know many in the unit. Sargeant was better at it, but I'll cave anyway. I know both English and Spanish quite well. I've also picked up some ASL in the past when I briefly befriended a deaf girl but I think I've forgotten a chunk of it after I entered the Army. At the very basic level, I know some Italian and Portuguese and just a few sentences in Japanese and Korean, all from hearing. Writing it or stringing a coherent sentence is a different thing entirely.
I was never one to speak a lot anyways, I guess gestures and actions speak universally. I think that's the best language.
OPEN to IC interaction.
