Hi, I'm Meg. I do not knowif you know much about my country, you've probably never been there. It's a long way from
most other places. I tell you what I really like about living there. I lived in Sydney, down the south and that's the dimate, I
mean, we just have a really nice weather almost 63 all year around And it means you can get outside a lot and go to the
beach and just do lots of things without being stuck inside. There are good things about Australia too, but that's what I like
best. You can have barbecues all year amund
Person 2
I hope that you can understand what I'm saying because English is not my first language. My first language is Hindi. It's the
language of Deli, the city where I live. I speak English quite a lot too. We used to speak English a lot when I was at school.
That's a language we use quite a lot in India because it's such a big country and there are so many languages here.
There are so many languages, it is impossible to understand anyone else, so some newspapers and things are in
English. But it is not the first language here, in India. If you look at the films, for example, they are never in English. They
are always in one of the Indian languages
Person 3:
I live in Vancouver BC. There are people there from all parts of the wodd, so you'll see different kinds of faces and here are
lots of kind languages too Mostly that is because of the immigration of course. There are lots of immigrants here from
Vietnam and Hong Kong and places like that. A lot of people think that the second language in Canada is French, but it
Isn't. The second language here is Chinese. That's because there are so many people from Hong Kong. Everything
here is written in English and French because that is the law in Canada, but you only hear French spoken over in the East
