My wife is Greek and speaks to our son 1-1 99% of the time in Greek. I only speak to him in English. He is 2 in June and can say words in both languages. I’m slowly learning the words he is saying as well.

I think the key is consistency.

I have a mate where they all speak both English and German and their 5 year old will mash the both together without realising.
