One thing that always feels weird to me is in movies and shows when 2 people are talking who know English and a different language. It's just them. Nobody else is around and they keep switching back and forth between languages. They will say a sentence in 1 then a sentence in another. It's especially weird if the show makes it clear the other language is their native tongue. So then I wonder why are they using English at all, since nobody else is there who would benefit from if But I am not bilingual. Is this a thing in real life or is it just something movies do? ...

I only speak one language natively but have learnt two more. I can switch pretty easily, though I've rarely spoken the wrong one accidentally and never changed unintentionally mid-conversation. --- But I Trumble from there! http://error1355.com/ce/Trumble.html ... Copied to Clipboard!

Had a group of friends that did. They'd switch from English to Japanese with each other often. I was left out on so many conversations. --- I'm a Taurus I like collecting headphones and iems.

Assuming whoever I'm speaking to is fluent in both languages then yes. Often times I just speak w/e comes into my head first. Sometimes it's easier to explain or say a word in one language over the other as well. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It depends on the person and at what stage they learned their second language. I find this is more common with people who grew up with one language and learned a second language in adulthood. At that point theres just hard coding in your brain you can never truly overcome ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm a native Dutch speaker and very frequently mix English words and phrases in my Dutch vocabulary. Usually this is because I feel like the English way of saying something is more accurate at that moment, and the average Dutch person speaks English well enough anyway. --- One time, CE triggered me so hard with their objectively wrong opinions that I accidentally punched myself in the balls. ...

Yes I knew a girl who could speak 4 languages but Spanish was her first and she routinely would casually slip back into speaking Spanish for absolutely no reason sometimes. Considering I can't speak Spanish it was mildly annoying :P --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair! http://i.imgur.com/yPw05Ob.png ... Copied to Clipboard!
