Most of us take a second language in high school and sometimes continue it in college. I took Spanish. I managed to remember enough to squeak by when we visited Mexico and Spain, but it was a struggle because I just don't speak it monthly or even annually! Here's a guy that makes me feel like I could do a lot better! He's a Polyglot- someone who knows or uses multiple languages. This reporter for the Associated Press speaks SIX Languages and does it with ease. You'll see some clips in today's blog. He's amazing.
