I used to think that people who spoke foreign languages only spoke them, but their thoughts were in english like mine.
A childhood belief about foreign languages
others believed things like this
- At the age of four I believed I was soooo smart. I spoke TWO languages...English AND American!— Melinda
- I thought that people who spoke a different languages were aliens.— Phoebe
- I used to think that even people who spoke something other than English, thought in English— Peaches
- I used to believe that, no matter what language other people spoke, that everyone thought in EnglishAnon
- I used to believe that everybody spoke English in the worldAnon
- I know my dog, Palmer, spoke English, he was just really quiet.
