Notes about languages

Today in human Geo we talked about how some countries are affected by what language they speak. We started taking notes on how Arabian countries speak mostly Arabic and how this is important; they can benefit from this because they need to be able to speak with most of the people in their country and know what is going on, and also in order for them to learn certain things this is helpful. Mr. Schick talked about when he went on a trip to France he wanted everyone to think that he was French and that he tried so hard to speak perfectly to others and one time he did exactly that. Eryn told us that she will be attending the school trip to France and Spain, and she will be staying in a hotel and touring around France. Doori also told us a story of when she and her mother were talking to a French man but it was kind of hard to understand him. We didn't finish the note taking, but what we mostly learned to day was about how people spoke in different countries and also we learned the term- Lingua Franca which means that the language is pretty known and spoken.
