knew it was me are there any foods you can't resist any foods you couldn't resist when you were younger I speak two languages English and Spanish when speaking I feel almost like I have two separate personalities one in English and one in Spanish the distinction between each language is not just the way I speak but also the volume of my voice I am much louder in English than I am in Spanish however in Spanish I have a much more outgoing personality it's weird how a language can change your personality English is my first language I
speak it with my family at home and whenever I teach English but when I speak Spanish I have only ever spoken at school or with my friends today I only ever speak English with my friends I believe that's why I have a lot more casual vocabulary in Spanish than I do in English I have a lot more laid back Spanish then English at least that's why I think I have two different personalities in each language what about you do you ever feel like you have two different personalities in each language thank you for listening have
a lovely day see you next time bye
