Jessica Alba, linguistic genius

Posted February 8th, 2008 by minortopics | via breakingnews.iol.ie

In an interview with Latina magazine, Jessica Alba revealed that she plans to only speak Spanish to her baby, due to regrets that she didn’t learn Spanish — the language of her grandparents — when she was a child. Only one thing: Alba doesn’t even speak fluent Spanish:

Now, Alba is committed to mastering Spanish so she can speak the language to her baby.

She adds: “Hopefully I can pick it up because I want my kids to speak Spanish. I don’t even want them to speak English for maybe the first two to three years, until pre-school.

“We’re in the United States so they’re going to learn it anyway.”

Jessica, take a little time to Google “immersion programs” and “language studies” before you carry on with your awesome little plan.
