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 ^^.

I often think in English.. most times when i'm typing in English / talking in English of course
Those 'other thoughts' can occur as well in English
