Of course, I still speak German. But it’s hard work. Not
only am I looking for words, I very often translate back from English but I also
cannot stand hearing my own voice. I sound different and it all sounds very
wooden. Nobody speaks like this, and it feels un-authentic. I really hope,
it’ll come back quickly. Otherwise this will just be very awkward. Besides,
I’ve gone a bit quiet again, as I simply don’t seem to know how to start a
conversation. As if my confidence when meeting new people is restricted to
interactions in English. Very bizarre indeed.
