Conversation Partner

This is my (Nancy's) conversation partner Edit.  Even though we have lived in Hungary for over eight years, the Hungarian language is still quite challenging.  We are continually trying to improve and one of the ways Edit helps me is by meeting with me about once a week for conversation practice.  For about 45 minutes we speak Hungarian with Edit helping by correcting my grammar and word usage.  Then for another 45 minutes we speak English with me helping Edit in the same way.  We have become good friends having many things in common.  We are close in age with children and grandchildren who are about the same ages, too.  We also enjoy the many topics we have discussed during our practice time including politics, history, food, habits and preferences.  One of the questions last week was "What would you do if you couldn't use the internet or watch TV for one month?"  That was a tough question for self-admitted internet addicts! 

Thank you, Edit, for your valuable help and for your friendship!
