Answer :
In the story "Mother Tongue" by Amy Tan, Amy struggles with the idea of code-switching which loosely means using different forms and dialects of English language in different circumstances.
During her growing up years, Amy struggled with the concept of code switching. She feels that she is in two language zones - one is the simple, unclear and broken language of her mother and the other is the more sophisticated use of the language that she learns at school. At times, she is embarrassed of her mother's spoken English, when her friends cannot understand what she wants to convey to them. Amy does not realize that her mother is really proficient in reading the language as she could read many books in English. Her mother only lacks in speaking proficiency as English is not her native language.
Slowly, Amy starts realizing the merits of growing up in an immigrant family and starts appreciating the cultures and traditions of her two worlds.
Answer:
I have a couple things that I would enjoy learning. For one is a new language of course. I have always wanted to learn French or Intalian. I could look at websites or even dictornaires for learning the new language. I would have to take time and have confidence in myself for the language.
Another skill I would like to learn is a muscial instrument. I would need a book of notes for the instrument. Learning an instrument would be at the top of my list most likely only because music is one of the big parts of my life, and somehow I can always relate to the song I listen to. The instrument I would like to learn is either piano or even the gutiar.
There are still many skills I would like to learn is Photography, Memory (have better memory like photographic memory), and Repair (changing tires, oil change, etc.)
