All the fucking time. Now I’m at this phase of learning my third language, where it starts to sip in. I can’t sprechen normally anymore, send help пожалуйста.
Holy shit, i thought that only happen to me, the worst part it when is an “easy” word
Yes it happens, especially when you speak 3 languages. A year ago, I was mixing 2 languages by mistake and people where like “what???”. Lol
This always reminds me of our karate master back when I was going to trainings. One day his instruction was “one mawate zurück”. We don’t normally speak any of these languages.
You can also have a cup of tea.
I speak three languages and whenever I’m with someone that speaks the same languages, I’ll revert to a mix of grammar and vocabulary that covers all three languages. I’ll continuously pick the next word in the language that comes to mind first and I can literally switch language 5-10 times in a single sentence
Everyone hearing me talk in moments like that thinks I’m insane, but it works perfectly
Yes, especially with tech-words. Hell, I even don’t know what for example “exploit” means in my native language.
My thoughts are in English instead of Romanian and it’s terrfying
I’ve been colonized
Dem suc de mere fromos
(It’s probably spelt wrongly, but that’s all I remember)
I think you meant
Bem suc de mere frumos.
We’re drinking some beautiful apple juice.
Sugi pula
:-)))))
ever since my brain got hard-wired to think in English despite it not being my native language.
I totally mistook that lightbulb in the background for a bowling pin for some reason on first glance.
English is my native language. I have on more than one occasion gone blank trying to think of a word, only to remember it in Japanese. Which is particularly amusing when it’s the kana-ised version of the English word I had forgotten.
Maybe it being an English root word helped you remember brains are weird
Spanglish much? Parlais Franglais? Denglisch sprechen?
Czenglish
Habla non Deutchen
loqui ikkje doitsu
Slava Ukrainglish!
Yes and I got teased about it mercilessly for weeks after. All in good fun.
