![]() ![]() It seems that the concept of one being able to speak 2 or 3 languages as fluently as each other is fairly alien to most monolinguals, and the only way they can (sort of) understand our bi/trilingual abilities is to make us "pick a tongue". Whenever people ask me what is my mother tongue, I would try to explain that I’m bilingual and I'm slightly better at reading and listening in Chinese, but I can express myself slightly better in English through speaking and writing.
