It happened today. The cashier at the drugstore check-out asked if I was a senior or “not quite yet”. My eyes must not have “masked” my dismay as she then explained that with masks she can’t tell and so just judges by hair colour🤣.

The fear of criticism, rejection or ridicule as a second or additional language speaker is real and destructive. My own doctoral research revealed that even proficient L2 speakers and teachers experience this linguistic insecurity. Be brave and speak French 👍🏻👍🏻!
