How to Understand & Help my wife adjust to UK

[Terpe]

...My wife misses family and friends from her area (Mindanao) and talking in bisaya...

I can really understand that.....my wife often needs to speak to someone in her own language.

The times I lived away from UK I also really missed have a meaningful conversation in English. I guess it's another facet of being homesick....

Good point though

Yep, i can understand that too as i lived/worked in Munich in my younger days and longed for a sensible conversation with someone English. Funny thing is when i got back to the UK i found it difficult to speak English, sometimes using Deutchglish and confusing the hell out of everyone. I might also add i returned to the UK as homesickness got the better of me. A very strange thing that feeling of homesickness!
