What's this?

A little reflection daily about my language acquisition

We were talking the other day (Magneto and Titanium Man). The other party, or parties, spoke of how they thought in English, in words, or sometimes in Japanese when the situation warranted. 

I considered that, then said that I didn’t. Oh, so you think in images, they responded. No, not that way either. I kind of grok whole gestalts of meaning. Then I usually struggle to put them in words, even though they are are clear as crystal to me.

So in a sense working with language(s) is for me a frustrating business. It doesn’t come very naturally to me.
