RE: Which language do you think in?

in Ask the Hive11 months ago (edited)

You certainly spoke a wider range of languages! This is a topic we often discussed. My mother tongue is Afrikaans (a Germanic language that originated and is only spoken in SA) My hubby was English speaking so when the kids came along we decided we would speak our relevant mother tongues to them. They would never address their Dad in Afrikaans and vice versa. The family conversation would confuse some people, but it worked and they're both very bright,
I do believe we switch to thinking in the language spoken at the time, well that's how my brain works.
PS oh my word! I had to correct my grammar, was half asleep when my curious mind went through my feed last night😖
