Re: Are you Franglish ?
I already saw this text a while ago. It is very fun to read, though I don't think it comes from "absolute genius". (It's still debatable considering the amount of definition the word "genius" has).
I found this article about how our brain processes switching languages.
It is very interesting, I now understand a little bit better why after a few hours of only English speaking/listening my brain would find it hard to switch, or still wants to say English words despite speaking in French. It is probably because my brain didn't "turn off" the other language completely since it got used to only speak in one for the past hours. The same happens when I speak French for a whole day and I then have to speak only in English, I find it harder to get the right English words because the first ones that come to mind are French.

Tx for your words Zoey It is true that although it can be difficult at times, language learning is excellent for the brain.
Thomas Bak a écrit: young adults proficient in two languages performed better on attention tests and had better concentration than those who spoke only one language.
