A spontaneous language geek! A child after my own heart. (I just had a friend from Iceland visiting me these last few days, and I had to really try not to constantly bug him with, "Why is that pronounced that way instead of this way? Do you know why there's an exception of this instead of this? What does this mean? Is it the same as this...?") Anyway, that's so fantastic that she's actually really *into* speaking two languages, not just doing it by default or because she's supposed to.
I wonder what she'll think when she gets older and figures out that your partner actually *isn't* a native German speaker, and has raised her on German her whole life just for fun! Hopefully it'll be a cool thing, like a secret language the two of them get to share.
