u know whats weird?

when you read or think to yourself...you hear your voice in your head.

or the occasional time ur tripping and u start hearing other shit

do people who speak different languages think in their heads in that language?

of course they do, but damn, its weird....if ur chinese thinking to urself u think in chinese...but it equals the same thing in english if u spoke english.

LOL what a silly thread. Yea, I think everyone "hears a voice" so to speak when they are reading or thinking, and it would only make sense for them to "hear it" in their language.

I realized that when I was three.

You might need to stop smoking so much. Many times my thoughts don't accompany any words. Just thoughts. Actually I have many thoughts that I feel are somewhat impossible verbalize.

This is actually the heart of an interesting philosophical dispute. What does it mean to say that two phrases of different languages "equal" each other?

And of course, congenitally deaf people likely do not "hear" anything at all "in their head," but they can think as well as the rest of us. Helen Keller was smart but both deaf and blind. What did the "inside of her head" "sound" like?

Fascinating to think about.

My invisible friend thinks you have problems.

My invisible friend thinks that people who talk to invisible friends have problems.

I try doing that but find it harder to talk to myself in my head in my second language...takes longer to process everything....



...don't know if that made any sense

I think it's more odd that you can actually break it down like that.

Well, it's not like I keep a mathematical count of how many words I think in each language, but I've noticed that sometimes I remind the correct word in english but not the correspondent word in portuguese.

Obviously the opposite happens a bit more often.

I dream, think, and talk to myself in English nowadays but when I go home, after about 24 hours, I'm back to thinking and speaking to myself in Danish. It's much more relaxing.

I started speaking at a fairly late age ( around 5 ) french ... I also understood english around the same time but I was fairly stubborn and refused to speak it till I was 8 or so.

So technically you could say french is my native language but I grew up speaking english at home ...

anyhow ... I usually think in English these days but it really started being that way since I moved to the US and now that I am back in french speaking territory I still think in english.

As a matter of fact these days I barely ever speak french even if I am back in France ... english for work, family chit chat and friends for the most part. And I regurlaly go to Switzerland and Germany which are right next door and my german sucks so it's english there as well.

When I'm really mad, I am mad inside my head in English. I think that's cuz I didn't get "really" mad at home so I'm not used to "thinking" mad or cussing in thought, in Danish.

That's cause Danish is the most delish

I could get mad in french ( and make it sound poetic at the same time ) but nastiness flows much more easilly with english ... English is da bomb ass language for freestyling ninnngass!

When I speak in English I always think about it in French first which can and does get confusing.

I always liked how people who speak 2 or more languages thought in one and spoke in another.

I've only been speaking English for about 4 year now, so French is just the language I was more on a daily basis.

French and Spanish are the most beautiful languages for sounding poetic and sexy. I mean just saying "te quiero" slow and softly makes me hawt!

Yes, English is better for anger, cussing, ranting and raving. More words I think?
