1860. Some people who achieved to learn a language


 
Stevick, in his book about people who achieved to learn a language, wrote also about intuition.
The premise is that a Nordic, a Scandinavian girl tried to understand what two teachers were talking about. She was in the classroom and a native teacher went into the classroom.
So the two teachers were talking to each other.
By means of what she could understand, plus gestures, face expressions, the context, and something else I now do not remember, she was able to understand quite much of the conversation, also by means of intuition.
Intuition is an aid that our students and we ourselves can count on when learning and acquiring a foreign or a second language. / Photo from: Disney’s paperman_by_tamasaburo89-wallpaper.  hdwallpapers com
