Technology is and is continuing to become a valuable tool in all sorts of daily tasks, including language translation!  I've been studying Spanish for the last couple years because I increasingly encounter situations where it is needed.  But, just the other day I was thinking with AI and other tech gee-wizzary, it may soon become unnecessary for all this learning I'm doing.  However, it's still good for the brain!

I do run to Google Translate sometimes and it's a big help. Glad to know some foreign words and little by little knowing the language as well.

David has a great ability to understand people who do not have English as their first language...I do not...and we sometimes do rely on translators.

Good morning Elizabeth. I think you have scored. Your partner works and you read about it.

Hello Elizabeth- - -technology has made dramatic advances but is far from "perfect". There may be more hope with real estate-speak than political jargon. Maybe.

Thank you everyone for your comments. Unfortunately, I have been too busy helping an injured friend to respond to each of you but I will rectify that with my future blogs.
