    If someone speaks to me in English anymore, my mind translates it to Spanish to think about what they say. When I am writing in English online I am usually translating from my thoughts in Spanish.

    Fascinating! I’m pretty (coordinate) bilingual and have come to the conclusion that I don’t really think in either language; the thinking/reasoning process happens at some other (more symbolic?) level, and whatever comes out of my mouth or fingers is the result of translation from that symbolic language into the target language of whomever I may be addressing at the time.
