    Getting into a new chapter and having to learn new words happens to natives as well. My daughter just finished studying and in some conversations I notice words from her professional vocabulary that she starts using when talking to us.

      That's SO very true! I realized this when I started getting into learning more about real estate here in Germany... I'm totally missing the English words when I'm trying to explain something to my family and friends back home!

      @@lifeingermany_ Another look at the subject: Can you imagine how a German feels when meeting with a group of immigrants and they start talking about 'Ausländerbehörde', 'Aufenthaltserlaubnis', etc. Most of us may know how to spell these these words but that is about it. Makes you feel like a carpenter that ran into a group of physicists talking about methods to build a nuclear plant.

    Welcome to the world of the Denglisch speakers.
    Let's see which stage you've reached.
    Stage 1: forgetting words in your mother tongue and switching to German.
    Stage 2: similar to stage 1 but using a German word fluently in an English sentence because that word fits juuuust so slightly better than the term in English.
    Stage 3: starting to conjugate English verbs by German grammar rules or vice versa
    Stage 4: adding German Hilfsverben to the English conjugation of a German main verb like "to hand in homework" becomes "einzuhändigen". To my knowledge that's the last stage. Let me know if you can bastardize it even worse.😂

    you have some pointless spam in the comment section. arguing mixed in English and German (or any other languages) is called "code switching". The smarter and the more reflective people are the lesser they depend on language skills. apropos: coming from different languages can often also hide that the misunderstanding is not due to a language barrier but due to being too emotional, unfocussed, not listening/communicating/arguing in a proper way - just like if people spoke the same language.

    It reminds me of my funny experience in terms of language barriers that can cause misunderstanding, my mother in law told me during my first year in Germany
    „Ich habe einen wunderschönen Sonnenschirm gesehen in Baumarkt, der ist mir ins Auge gestochen, den will ich dir unbedingt schenken! I was confused and replied to her.“ Aber Mutter warum möchtest du den Sonnenschirm mir schenken das muss doch wehgetan haben ?(ins Auge gestochen)😂😂😂😂
