Buddy, shut up! And! Smile!

Cultural adaptationBy ArneOctober 11, 2017Leave a comment

„A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.“ William Arthur Ward If nothing works, smile! Normally that helps. This morning I asked a guy to clean my shoes on a square around the corner. He smiles at me, pointed to my shoes, made hand gestures to show that I had to put the other…

How I can improve my listening skills – Learning Tunsi 10

Language Learning, TunisianBy ArneSeptember 20, 2017Leave a comment

It’s now been over a year since I started learning Tunisian Arabic. A year with many interruptions and various difficulties, but a good year, all in all! A breakthrough has not happened yet: everything is slow. That being said, I can’t work more than 10 hours a week on language learning because I just don’t…

Waiting for the breakthrough – Learning Tunsi 9

Language Learning, TunisianBy ArneAugust 23, 2017Leave a comment

These words are found particularly in languages of neighboring countries, for example: Dutch and German, or Spanish and Portuguese. And they are very annoying! You…

Where do all these words go to? – Learning Tunsi 8

Language Learning, TunisianBy ArneJuly 26, 2017Leave a comment

I have now done 60 hours of language learning with my language helper. That means that I have probably heard another 60 hours of my recordings. My vocabulary in Tunisian Arabic might be around 500 words. But, that’s difficult to know as the number of words I can say is far smaller than the number…

5 Examples and stories – Culture shock 7

Cultural adaptationBy ArneJuly 19, 2017Leave a comment

In the first six articles we have seen how culture shock can be defined, how it progresses and what you can do to moderate, accept and overcome. The main problem is to recognize the culture shock. The situation is not always so clear that I automatically deal with culture shock. Very often, the employer has…
