G Read the excerpt from "Mother Tongue."
Albo
Just last week, I was walking down the street with my mother, and I again found myself conscious of the English I
was using, the English I do use with her. We were talking about the price of new and used furniture and I heard myself
saying this: "Not waste money that way." My husband was with us as well, and he didn't notice any switch in my
English. And then I realized why. It's because over the twenty years we've been together I've often used that same
kind of English with him, and sometimes he even uses it with me. It has become our language of intimacy, a different
sort of English that relates to family talk, the language I grew up with.
