Using another language with your partner

Your accent is part of the charm

Nobody expects perfect pronunciation. Trying at all says you care, and a mistake often turns into a shared joke.

Ask them to teach you

Ask your partner how they'd say something to you. You'll learn the words their family uses, which no phrase list can give you.

Learn the everyday words first

Good morning, sleep well and how was your day get used far more than grand declarations. Small words, said often, add up.

Be careful with translation apps for feelings

Apps are great for logistics but can sound stiff or strange with emotions. For the important things, ask, or keep it simple.
