It is fun to watch videos that show people speaking a foreign language and embracing a new culture. People usually learn a new language when it is spoken by their partner. In a video posted on Instagram, a Canadian woman is speaking Punjabi and it’s delightful to watch.
Sarah Wickett, a pop country singer and songwriter based in Toronto, posted the video on her Instagram account five days ago. She tries speaking in Punjabi in the video. “Main Toronto toh haan, mera boyfriend Delhi toh haan. Par mera boyfriend Toronto vee ton haan. Aseen Toronto vich rehnde haan (I am from Toronto; my boyfriend is from Delhi. But my boyfriend is also from Toronto. We live in Toronto),” she says in Punjabi. “I tried my best…” says the caption of the video.
