Hear & There
Ever notice how when you're trying to speak another language, you develop your listening skills faster than your talking skills? A shame that when we speak to people in the same language as ours, we tend to forget about that whole, pesky "listening" thing and focus only on the talking (usually our own talking).
No particular event heralded this peculiar little insight, incidentally. It's just something I realised I hadn't before considered until today.
