What Language Do You Dream In?

[gunslingingbird]

I wonder when one learns a second language has anything to do with some of this stuff. I have a feeling somebody that learns a second language later in life has a lot tougher time thinking in that second language without translating in their head than somebody that learns a second language as a young child or even along side their primary language their entire life.

I've heard a theory that people are all born with perfect pitch and they gradually lose it by the time they're 5. That explains the fact that people don't have accents in their mother tongues, but do in languages learned after age 5.

There's not actually any speaking in my dreams.

Same here actually. I don't usually have much speaking in my dreams either. I know what's going on and there is communication between myself and whomever I'm interacting with, but it's not really... speaking. It's total gibberish. My dreams are fucking crazy.

Unfortunately I don't have happy dreams very often. I usually have very bizarre dreams, and I don't normally speak.

Fortunately I do have frequent kinky sexual dreams....yay
When I do speak, it's very dirty english!

It depends what I'm dreaming about. If I'm dreaming something about my family and some friends, it's in Spanish. If I'm dreaming about work or weird shit (Twin Peaks kind of weird shit), it's in English.
