Mary: Okay, this is going to be interesting being a couple answering this question. Plus, we already kind of answered in the first question, but what's more difficult listening or speaking?
Seth: What?
Mary: That's a good joke.
Seth: I would say for me, speaking. Even in my own native language speaking is harder for me than listening. I'm a really good listener. I can sit there and listen to someone forever and just keep asking them simple questions and let them do most speaking. So maybe it has to do with a little bit of your personality, but I would say that listening is probably easier for me than speaking.
Seth: What about you Mary?
Mary: Oh, what do you think? Speaking hands down way easier. I mean, I love listening to. I love getting...you're a good listener. Thank you. I really like knowing more about people and listening to their perspectives and their stories and things like that. But speaking is not hard for me because I'm so interested and I love language. I no matter what language it is. I really love language. And so it's fun for me to speak. And it's fun for me to share.
Seth: It's fun to listen to you.
Mary: So definitely, speaking is more fun. Listening is more difficult because my brain is in speaking mode. And so sometimes listening I really have to like, be much more conscientious of that skill and learn to practice that
Seth: And I am the opposite. Have to consciously speak except minutes with you.
Mary: Oh, it's so easy for us. So where we got married. So anyway, you guys, I wish that we could hear what You're what you would say about that.
What is more difficult for you? Maybe go and write that down or share with someone which skill is more difficult for you.
