| dc.description.abstract | In this essay the author reflects on the role of language in a migrant’s academic life, focusing specifically on the English and Slovene languages and their uses. From common misunderstandings, battling with language stereotypes and aiming to be a more perfect language user, to broader philosophical considerations around one’s first language, the essay considers the important of language choice in the globalised academic world. | en |
