Wolof Struggles

Sunday, July 23, 2006

While things as a whole have been going pretty well lately, I felt this past week flustered with my Wolof. Dakar has proven to be a difficult place to sit, use it, and learn the language. I think my French has actually gone down hil, but then agai, I rarely use it at all. It just isn’t easy and I have not had time to find a tutor yet. For some reason, this past week things just weren’t clicking.


This is nothing that I had not heard would happen. I definitely was told that walls would be hit when learning the language. It is a weird feeling though and in a sense, a hopeless one.


Hopefully, a new week brings new strength.
