The last baby was born in june 2022 and is a male. Celebration was not a big familiar event. Pandemic and economical crisis has influenced in this, but didn´t lacking gifts and visits. The food was not lacking either; at the end, we all wanted to welcome him

Following is the answer to the above question.
The most recent time a new baby came to my family was the birth of my grandson, ” Ibraheem,” when I took him on my lap, I could not control my tears of happiness and this action was repeated again hearing his voice calling me,” Dadi”. In our system, the name of this dear relation is called, ”Dadi or Nani.”
After the birth of a new baby, we celebrate,” Aqiqa”. It is the Islamic tradition of sacrificing an animal on the occasion of childbirth and shared with family, friends, and members of the community, who are in need.
As a subject, I started studying English during my school time. Honestly, I don’t remember what my first words were in English. Now I am taking it very seriously and with the supervision of Mr. Maestro sersea
I am enjoying and learning the English Language properly. I am so very much grateful to you sir.
God Bles You!!!
Greeting Maestro Sersea
How did you learn English
I learned English in high school at the end of the 90s.
What were the first English words that you learned?
Remember that first I learned the alphabet and numbers, how to say good morning, how to ask the hour or the address to someone and to greet
Do you enjoy learning English, or is it difficult
and uninteresting for you?
Yes, for me is enjoyable and a good way to spend my spare time. Despite sometimes there are topics a little bit complicated to handle but at the same time is interesting for me, because I have noted great advances in all my English skills and consequently I am conscious that have gained more fluency at the moment to express my speech or ideas and it´s easier for me to find my grammatical mistakes.
Thank you so much.
