The next week we ended up in New York.While I was sitting there redfaced,my mother,the real Mrs.Tan,was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager,my mother’s broken English embarrassed me.But now,I see it differently.To me,my mother’s English is perfectly clear,perfectly natural.It is my mother tongue.Her language,as I hear it,is vivid,direct,and full of observation and wisdom.It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things,expressed ideas,and made sense of the world.
