Welcome to 'Bridging The Linguistic Gap'

This blog will follow my attempts to teach myself and my children Hungarian. I am half English, half Hungarian and have longed to speak the language. Now is the time.

Maybe I've gone a bit crazy or got a bit over enthusiastic one day -when I decided to do this, but I really do think I can ... teach myself and also teach my children to speak Hungarian and connect with a part of our identities that is usually hidden.

keep your language alive... Speak it, Read it, Keep it - this is the slogan for my online bookstore - Mother Tongue Books. My store sells bilingual children's books, you can visit at the link below.

So now it's time to stop telling everyone else with a foreign connection to develop their mother tongues and start doing it myself.

Blogging Carnival on Bilingualism - February 2011

These blogging carnivals are great. Each month a new host puts out a plethora of blogs from around the world each dedicated to bilingualism. You can read many uplifting stories from families raising children to speak two, sometmes three languages. Even some like me who are trying to teach their children a language that is not the parent's mother tongue.
