Hello Bella Devyatkina, how are you?

I’m excellent. I’m excited to have an interview.

Can you please introduce yourself? How are you spending the lockdown?

I like speaking different languages; it is enjoyable. I do various activities like drawing and dancing. Sometimes I feel like going out for a walk, but I’m not allowed to do that during the quarantine period, so I stay home. 

How many languages do you know?

Bella Devyatkina

I know eight languages. But, I have started learning another language. So, I am practicing my ninth language, which is Greek.

What languages do you know?

 I know Russian, English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Arabic, Mandarin, and a little Greek.

How difficult is it to learn a new language?

Sometimes, a language has complicated grammar, while some languages are straightforward to understand. For me, the most difficult was French because it has a lot of grammar. The easiest was Russian. 

Which is your favorite language?

I like all languages equally. 

Who helps you learn new languages?

What do you think is shared between all the languages?

They are all fun to learn. 

What is your plan for the future?

I want to be a cat breeder. I have two cats. 

How many hours in a day do you spend on learning new languages?
