"I can't translate correctly into English"

Left "Do you know how much you have to translate in your brain before speaking?"

Right "Do you know how smart you are in Spanish?"

A woman with Spanish as her native language represents her feelings when speaking English.

You can understand it very much as a Japanese.

The dilemma that can be explained and reunited in a native language, but is a second language that goes up as soon as it is, seems to be hard to understand for native people.

Here are some comments on overseas bulletin boards.

● I really understand.No, it's not a smart part, but for a few milliseconds to say what English is.↑ I am the same.But English sentences sometimes make more meaningful than their native Swedish.↑ It's a Bangladesh, but you can speak or write English more than Bangladesh.● When it is not an English conversation, you can remember English words, but sometimes you forget your native language.↑ It often happens.I know something, but I can't remember what I say in my native language.↑ I understand, it is often.● The elderly boss was a Cuban (official language: Spanish) and lived in Italy for about 20 years before coming to the United States.He said that he hadn't spoke Spanish for a long time, so he had to translate it from English to Italian first and then translate it into Spanish.↑ Wow, it's already a different dimension level.I will crash my brain.● For example, I think in English and translate it into my local language before speaking.My brain is unpleasant.↑ I do something similar.Depending on the time of the day and what you are doing, you think in English and speak alone.Not a native language.The trouble is that when you do it, you think the same thing twice.First in the first language, and in the second language.● "Don't laugh at those who are struggling to speak English. It's because they know another language."English is the only language that can speak fluently in your native language, but I feel it is difficult to speak English in the brain.So don't think bad.● I have no translation in my head anymore (both English and Spanish are fluent).Still, you have to use a mixed spanbalish when speaking in either language.● Most bilinguals are struggling to translate, and the remaining time is thinking about it.

If you live in a foreign country too long, you may forget your native language.
