It is overwhelming to have to \"relearn\" the alphabet only in a different form, but once you do learn it, you can read any words in English as it's spelled in the dictionary.

English as a Global Language In the last few months that I have been traveling, it has become even more apparent to me how important it is to be able to speak English to interact in the world today. Many of the people that I have been talking with over the last few months have not been native English speakers.
