Language associated with cafes and restaurants.
Every menu and every sign is delivering a messages based on the surrounding culture. There is an expectation that symbols and signs are universal. We learn to decode the language surrounding ‘A Menu” and understand the shortcuts and acronyms included in the text.
English in an Art Gallery
We learn through experience and association. Language learners are sometimes amazed how quickly their prior knowledge and life experience can assist in understanding the English that is displayed on familiar objects. Like a entry ticket to an Art Gallery.
People and places
When you immerse yourself in the environment and culture you sometimes learn language through circumstances. You will find yourself asking questions for survival and predicting answers by listening for key words.
