I’m fascinated by people speaking multiple languages. It is so common here in The Valley. This region is 90% Hispanic and 10% Anglo. Most every person we deal with is a Spanish speaker, but they speak with us in English. Switching seamlessly between Spanish and English; they make it seem so easy!
How do they hold that much information in their head and keep it all straight? Is it a good workout for their brain? Are there cognitive advantages as a result? Do they possess a mental agility that I don’t? As I plod along in one language, are they frolicking?
