Hello Kithyn.
Only the second week of my new assignment, and I am still finding out so much about my role. The New Bridge project is extremely complicated and very confusing, and so many people want to know about it. Sometimes it seems I am spending all my time translating documents for the Board.
You were quite right to say that the language would come back quickly. I am finding it so much easier to express myself in English, although I am forever asking for explanations of technical words and phrases. Kevin (my Visitor) is patient with my fumbling attempts at his language, so I have avoided making too much of a fool of myself so far.
I am so glad we met again at the Guild, after all this time. It makes me very pleased that I decided to take up a career again, after such a long break. What a wonderful suggestion of yours to resume our old habit of writing to each other in English. Such good practice!
How are Amiss and the boys?
Keep in touch,
Your old friend Tanji.
