I'm not sure if your "unsual" means "usual" or "unusual", but either way you're oversimplifying and ignoring the fact that different people are different. In 2005 I met someone of German origin who had left Germany in 1938 in circumstances that you can imagine, moving first to India (Madras), where he went to university, and from there to the USA (Chicago). When I met him he had lived in an anglophone environment for more than 65 years, but he still spoke English with an obvious German accent. > > If you live in a foreign country long enough, you will inevetably speak > the local language, Oversimplifying again. > because the human brain is made to communicate and you can only > communicate with peeople which are actually there. > > Since Einstein spoke quite poor English, we are forced to assume, that > his brain was not really prepared to learn the local language, which > was, of course, English at Princton. > > But if so, how did he manage to learn French and Italian at a > relatively young age? Are you really so ignorant that you haven't realized that younger people learn languages faster and more fully than older people? -- Athel -- French and British, living mainly in England until 1987.
