when i was a kid i lived where people spoke both french and english...
i fully believed until i hit Jr High school, that the people who understood french were really hearing it in english in thier heads and i just wasn't given the translator
A childhood belief about foreign languages
others believed things like this
- I used to think that even people who spoke something other than English, thought in English— Peaches
- i used to think that french was english backwards!— ---pepsi---
- I used to believe that, no matter what language other people spoke, that everyone thought in EnglishAnon
- At the age of four I believed I was soooo smart. I spoke TWO languages...English AND American!— Melinda
- I used to believe that french kiss was something coming from France, and that only the French did it— Sasha
- I used to think that you had to be french to really taste french fries.— Not French;)
