This week I translated 2 times! and when i say translated, i mean did my best to string together sentences with the limited amount of nouns and verbs i know. It was awesome. Now people know I can speak it and its spread around to some of the staff so they have informed me that if they need me they are gonna come grab me and I have no choice [obviously i dont mind].
One of the patients had their daughter with them that was probably my age. She was more Polish then me though, having an accent when she spoke English but not so much to make her seem fresh off the boat. I introduced myself to her mom in Polish when i realized thats all she understood and then I began to ask her questions. her daughter, realizing i suck, started to interpret for me so i gave up and spoke english. Later, i smiled and apologized for my bad Polish and the daughter smiled saying “oh honey its ok, its so cute you tried.”
