When I was younger, I went to a Spanish Immersion elementary school.
At a certain hour we were only allowed to communicate with one another in Spanish.
The only words that seemed to stick with me were elefante and a few other basics.
I can still remember the conversation I had with a classmate like it was yesterday...
"Elefante elefante elefante? El elefante elefante elefante."
Looking back, those were probably the strongest bilingual years of my life.
