So I was being introduced to my new home, my new cultural identity, as a complete outsider, incapable of comprehending anything that was being said to me by the family and country whose traditions I was meant to move forward.
我来到我的新家园， 接受新的文化身份， 完全是作为一个外来人， 我根本不能听懂 对我所说的任何话， 而这个家庭、这个国家的传统 都是我必须要接受的。
