You think you have problems... I constantly forget words in Portuguese and I've only been here for 5 years,
I talk on the phone with my family and half the words come out in english, don't mind the accent.
My girlfriend, with whom I've been living for 3.5 years, still can't avoid replying every 2nd time either in polish
or in french, rarely in english (which she speaks with a french accent). My flatmate (portuguese), speaks english
with the most annoying american accent, i.e. he doesn't say 'black', he says 'bleck', he can't say 'can't...
instead he says 'can' and 'kent'. Worst of all, he can't really understand where's the problem with that.
Besides all of this I 'have' to speak 3 different languages daily, english, portuguese and spanish,
but still I don't quite know in which one I think... weird.
