Yesterday, I had a conversation with a tourist from London..
he sat beside me from Malacca to Ipoh in the bus..
Well, the situation was awkward because I’m not really
fluent in speaking English.. However I try to make him understand on what I’ve
said to him…
His name is Richard.. a government officer in U.K.. Came to
Malaysia for holiday and then, he will proceed his trip to Thailand, Hong Kong,
Japan n Sabah..
He is really talkative person.. he kept story to me about
his experience travelling over Europe.. n then I just feel impressed and have
nothing to say at all..(since im still leak in English vocabulary..ngee)..
As a Malaysian, I try my best in promoting the tourism places
in Malaysia like Langkawi, Gua Tempurung, Pulau Pangkor and few others. Well fortunately,
he is going to Cameroon Highland.. the places that I frequently go with my
family.. so, I just explain to him about that places as much as I know like tea
valley, strawberry n tomatoes plantation, honey
n etc.
British English was quite difficult to capture their
pronounciation.. additionally, Richard talk too fast.. n sometimes I can’t even
understand what he try to told me..for example:
His pronounciation:
nais and nafu = niece and nephew
Flontasyen = plantation
Pairnt = parent
However it is good to know him even for a short period.. he
makes me realize that, I am still weak in my vocabulary and my communication
skill is still in moderate scale because I don’t have a ‘Microphonic voice’
(microphonic voice person, please teach me…><..hihi). Those criteria are
crucial for my career field soon because engineering requires me to communicate
with all kind of people. Other than that, I learnt about London people a lil
bit and their places..who knows , if Allah want to send me there soon. At least
I know a little bit about that places …insya-Allah… =)
(p/s: I’m sorry .. my English wasn’t good enough.. there
might be some grammatical error ..huhu)
