I was wondering...how many other people here can speak other languages?

[But then, she paused and there was a slight jostling of the camera as she shook her head.  Sorting out her thoughts.]

No,  not speak.  That doesn't really help any, with everything always being translated for us.  More like...read.  I was wondering...what languages everyone here can read?  Since written words have never been translated.  Not since I've been here.

[She hesitated. Understanding why he might ask, and yet...]

I'm not sure I'd be a very good teacher.

I'm sure you would be better than none. At the very least, you are familiar with the difficulties unique to us foreigners.

[ But no point in pressuring her. ]

Think about it. We can speak again another time.

[She nodded. That seemed fair.]

I will. Think about it, I mean.

[She had no doubt they would see one another again. Barring the sudden disappearance of one or both, the city was not that small. It could even happen by chance.]
