Wendy Vo, child prodigy who speaks 11 languages
Feb 10th, 2008 by Lilian
This news caught my eyes. Wendy Vo is 8 years old and she can speaks 11 languages!
I know many of us moms have that secret wish that our child turns out to be a genius. I know I do that. My hubby will laugh at me and my ‘Wow, my kid is such a genius!’ exclamation whenever they do somethi special. I suppose it is our proud maternal instinct.
So, I do wonder how parents like the parents of Wendy Vo feels to have a child that is exceptionally good in music and can master that many languages? Wendy Vo is such a cute little girl. Do watch Wendy Vo’s video and I know you are going to love this little girl. I am amazed with the way she speaks fluent Vietnamese, English, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, French, Japanese, Hindi, Arabic, Russian, Cantonese and Portuguese.
That is truly amazing. I’m having a hard time teaching my daughters a second language.
I just came across some videos on Youtube about Wendy Vo. I am very proud of her & happy for her parents. She as such amazing abilities. My daughter is half Vietnamese & half Polish. I speak Vietnamese & my husband speaks to her. She understands three languages, speak some Vietnamese & Polish, but mostly English. We sometimes think that is hard for our little one and that we are confusing her. Some people would give us their unpleasant comments….confusing little one, blah, blah… My husband & I never for once under estimated her abilities to undertand 3 languages. Kids are way smarter than we think. She can dance very well though….my Venuzuelan thinks that she has some Spanish blood in her to dance like that….heheheeeeee
Anyway, I am sure you are all agree w/ me that our boys/girts are gifts in the first place. If they have special talents and that would be a bonus.
Until next time mommies, take care and embrace your little ones as they are.
Great health to everyone. ART
