I've noticed that for the past week I've been getting lazy with speaking Arabic and I've been just trying to communicate as effectively as possible with the Arabic skill that I currently have. This usually means understanding when people talk to me, then communicating back through hand gestures, mixing in broken English and Arabic. I need to make myself flail with the language and kick myself in the butt to communicate only in Arabic. I needed a little boost of inspiration. I was on Twitter for a bit today and found this article. What inspiration to keep learning, and what an unfortunate loss.
