Do you understand?
This is Don's favorite
question of his students. When he was young, he learned how to say
this in
Italian: capisce? He used that often. Then when he had students that
could speak
different languages, he added this question to his repertoire, in
their
language. Now when he uses a different language, his students know
what he
means! Can you add some others? Here are some of these (the spellings
are phonetic):
