@northguineahills French is my 1st, English 2nd but the one I use the most now, sometimes I don't even know which one I'm speaking as I'm uttering words. Ha, brain!

@Gaylord yeah :) (had you been French I would have insisted on the importance on the gender marker, obv, but that's not your 1st language)

@Sylvia: when my brain goes to 'foreign language mode", (usually espanol), I sometime accidentally utter Duetsch, Francais, or Nippon-go.

@Gaylord: I've been watching a Brazilian series on Netflix latley. It's ok. But since there are many Brazilian immigrants here in central FL, I need to up my Lusophonic game. I can almost get through it w/o subtitles due to my Spanish...

Salut Mon Amie! Votre programme nous a donner beacoup de plaisir ce soir! Merci!
Avatar 🥀 7:01pm
northguineahills:

@Sylvia, my wife is Mexican, and the only Spanish at the time I knew was from watching futbol en espanol (in the 90s and 2000s, football was hard to find on American TV). Problem is, she spoke perfect English, so, I only got to practice my spanish there, but her friends wanted to practice their English w/ me. It's not automatic, but at least my brain can translate.
Avatar 🥀 Swag For Life Member 7:01pm
Gaylord Fields:

My teen-acqured Spanish used to be pretty tight intil I took a Portuguese course a decade ago. Now my Spanish sounds like an American pretending to be a Carioca who spent a few years in San Juan.
