I was introduced to my new flatmate who has replaced Daniel. She speaks no English and my German is well, terrible. Her name is unknown to me. I had to ask her to repeat her name three times before I got anyway near to understanding 1) what she was saying and 2) what her name is. I think her name is something like Al-Burno/a. Things are getting awkward. She's not very chatty either so I haven't figured out where she's from either. I conceal the fact that I don't know her name by saying "Hey there, Hey you etc" and that seems to have covered up that little problem. However, I don't want the rest of the flat to know I have no idea who this girl is so I jokingly saying "our new roomies, the new girl on the block etc" in hope that they might just utter her name. So far, no one has. This leads me to the conclusion that no one knows her name and we're all doing them same thing.
Time will tell!
