摘要:My daughter was 3 when her mother and I moved to Haiti. During the two years we lived there, her ability to learn the language, relate to Haitians and Americans and switch from one culture to the other, or blend them together, was astounding. We first experienced her quick study of the Creole language when, on a visit home to the States, she started telling our family all the words she knew in Creole and their English counterparts. She was adapting beautifully to the radical change in her world. She was staying connected to her American roots while making new connections during her daily life in rural Haiti.
