"I don't have memories in English" is an interesting insight

@Astalonte2 2 ай бұрын

IT is true. I have being using English everyday for the last 12 years of my life and I still think and dream in Spanish.

@katanavx0331 2 ай бұрын

Happens a lot when English (or for anyone else, when the language being used in the video/show/film) isn't their primary language (hence the "mother tongue" mention by Javier). I oftentimes think in Spanish, even if I don't realize the words coming out are in English. It also tends to explain why I might slow down when speaking in English (especially to a natural English speaker), as I'm translating my Spanish thoughts as I speak. Unless my answer is rehearsed beforehand, it would make me seem like I speak in a slower than normal tempo. 😅

I met him in Brisbane when he was filming for pirates of the Caribbean. I was working at a burger chain called Grilld and he sat outside and had his friend order. I asked if he would let me have a picture with him if he had some time. He was very friendly and made some jokes (no no that is my brother not me), I delivered his food later on and let him be not wanting to bother him. After finishing he came and waved his hand at me and asked if I would still like the photo before he left. Got a great pic and a great memory as a young hospo worker. Top guy.

It’s like it was just so natural for him, And suddenly after the movie it came to my mind again that he was also “The Boss” as well as the psycho on “No country for old men”, not to speak of “Mar Adentro”.
