"Very naturally only we can think in the language in which we are born." Are you agree with this? Tell me what you think about this statement.

Unless you have lived in the country with a different language from your home language for a long time I think it’s very hard to think outside of the language you were brought up thinking in.

Hi Aaryan. Here is a penny for my thoughts. What language were you thinking in when you wrote this statement, to express your thoughts in English? Were you thinking in English, or your mother-tongue? To use a language, in my opinion, you have to think in the language you want to use.

I disagree with the statement. I believe we only use language to express what we're thinking. If you know a second language well enough, you can use that language to express what you are thinking.

Not true at all, if you're fluent enough in a language and you use the language often, you'll find yourself thinking in that language
