Since I live in very American neighborhood in Israel I didnt really pick up Hebrew. Once I had to go to a certain specialist, I had to give him a very specific message as to why I was told to come to him. In the examining room only the patient is allowed so my husband could not come in with me. The whole way in the car my husband dictated what I should tell the specialist. I practiced and practiced so that it would come out sounding natural. I was very nearvous not to mess up. I got into the doctor and I started my speech, the doctor interjects, “I speak English!” in a perfect American accent. (probably made an Aliyah)
