it was weird, Luna was her name, parents from Sheffield (or somewhere else in Northern England with a strong accent) but she was born and raised in France.
When she spoke French she did so with a beautiful French accent, but when she spoke English, as she did very well, she spoke in a Northern accent, cos she'd been taught by her Northern parents.
Basically if you didn't know her & spoke to her in English, you'd think she was from Northern England, except she didn't know the English vocabulary like a native.
So she didn't know what a pencil sharpener was, it was like talking to an alien. Looks and sounds English, but didn't know some of the most basic words
Trying to teach an English adult the most basic of words that she struggled to pronounce.
made me laugh
in what ways are you retarded
