I want to learn a language in secret, but my family knows I learn languages. They have been to my home and are not comfortable speaking the languages they know to me. I travel with my family and I have traveled on my own a lot, but they can’t understand the languages I have learned. When I travel with my family, I use English and don’t use the native language.
