I love the language. I think for most Dutch people it sounds real natural because most people start to learn English at the age of mmm 8?

Always wondered the same, or imagine, thinking in another language? Can you imagine not thinking in your native language? Try it, bet you can't last 5 seconds without another thought popping up ^^.
