“Broken English is a language like music is a language.”

This is a short video of an immigrant (not me!) to Australia explaining that in some cases broken English is a very effective communication method. (I have no idea why he is in a bath!)
This is at a Heritage Village Museum in Western Sydney. The museum features great exhibits about immigration to Australia as well as reproduction or transported original buildings of a school, house, garage, newspaper office, etc. Mainly from the late 19th century.

Fascinating

I laughed at your bath comment! This is a cool shot with the silhouetted person watching/listening though!

[Kathy]

Curious. I agree with @princessicajessica about the attention the viewer appears to be paying to the video and their silhouette.

[Suzanne]

Great image of a great museum. Perhaps his broken English was the cause of him being in the bath??

[Diane]

Sigh. In the U.S. there is so much controversy about immigrants right now that people forget about their contributions.

now Marianne Faithful has filled my head (not because of the bath tho that just has to be left alone)

[Diana]

Such an interesting capture and narrative. We hear too much broken English here ;-)

[Issi Bannerman]

Interesting!

[Christina]

Interesting video - I agree strange the connection to a bath...

[Dorothy]

What Dianne says is very true, let’s face it most people in North America are immigrants!
Great silhouette.

[Casablanca]

[Susan Wakely]

Thank you! It was a very interesting exhibition.

Like koalagarden’s comment, I at first thought this was a reference to M. Faithful’s song - and then I saw the guy in the bath, and realised this is not about her famous song.

There’s even a cigarette stub on the ledge of the bath - what an odd place to talk about broken English.

The Heritage village Museum appears to be a most interesting place to visit.

[Angela]

What an odd story

[KV]

Strange and different.

[Christine Sztukowski]
