She also worked with teachers who coached her phonetically on how to pronounce words and phrases.<\/p>\n Speaking about her desire to understand new cultures through the language learning on the album, she explained: \u201cI love traveling, I love learning from other humans. Why would I not try to learn another language and try to sing in another language and expand the way I can be a singer or a musician or an artist? The world is so connected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
