I've met many foreigners in Nepal who try to speak Nepali, but one stands out. His name is Adam Smith, and he's originally from the UK. He first came to Kathmandu in 2020 to teach English at a college. He was a great teacher, and students appreciated his British background. After spending a few months in Nepal, he became interested in our culture and started learning Nepali. He learned from local people, a guide who accompanied him, and even from television programs. He was very dedicated to learning, watching Nepali news, YouTube videos, and even Facebook content. His dedication and consistent practice have allowed him to speak Nepali very well. He's a great example of how someone can learn a new language with enough effort and immersion.
