Translation Conversation: "How Does Language Influence Experience?"
(Special Events) Using a second (or third) language is not merely a matter of learning new vocabulary. It's not even just a matter of learning the 'right' phrases to use in different situations. Using another language requires us to shift our frame of reference, to alter our worldview. At this Center for Poetry event co-lead by the RCAH Language Mentors, we'll discuss how an experience-perhaps an everyday, familiar event-changes as a result of the language used. How are our behaviors changed? How are we changed? Come to share your second language experiences-from shopping at the market to debating world politics.
