In the poem " Disembarking at Quebec " what does I am a word in a foreign language means.

Thanks Much.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. You have the basic idea that she feels out of place. It could be that she is English-speaking in a French-speaking environment but also she has a well-ordered mind and is now in a wild, untamed (so to speak) land.
