我母亲在伊斯坦布尔的一所法语学校学习过。那个夏天，她每天早晨跟我们一起坐在空空如也的餐厅桌子旁边，尽力教我们学习法语。

My mother, who had studied at a French school in Istanbul, sat us down at the empty dining-room table every morning that summer and tried to teach us French.

我们以为自己稍后会去做某事，稍后会去读本古典小说，或是稍后去学习法语。

We think we're going to do something later, or read that classic novel later, or learn French later.

或是她可以选择学习法语，了解法国文化，我不会觉得受到侮辱，因为我们还是可以用英文沟通。

Or she might choose to learn French to know the French culture; I would not feel insulted, because I also understand her in English.
