It's in English 兒童語言

Our four-year-old son speaks English and German, and he has picked up some Cantonese since living in Hong Kong.

One day I was getting ready to take him to a rugby game. His mother, not being a rugby fan, planned a quiet afternoon at home. Our son, however, pleaded1.

"Come on, Mommy, you must come."

"I don't understand the game," she replied.

"But it's in English, Mommy!"

我們四歲的兒子說英語和德語，自從到香港居住后，他也能說上幾句廣東話。

一天我準備帶他去看橄欖球比賽。她媽媽不喜歡看橄欖球，為自己安排了一個休閑的下午，我們的兒子求他的媽媽道：

“媽媽，你還是去吧你，應該和我們一起去”

“我不懂這種比賽”她回答。

“媽媽，比賽是用英語講的。”
