different languages can affect the way a person acts thinks or feels an example is that because chinese mandarin has no tenses chinese people who speak mandarin are less anxious than speakers of european languages on average what other examples can you think of? |

"English took over my thinking I now think in english"
that actually sounds kind of sad you might not feel that way about it but essentially you are being assimilated into another culture just because of the internet probably |

I speak english better than my main language. My main language (Bengali) and english are very different so now I have trouble trying to speak Bengali.

well the way languages die out is basically when they get dominated by another language and culture because the speakers of the less dominant languages abandon their native languages and dont teach their children them in favor of a more dominant language not saying that latvian will die out any time soon but thats how it happens |

I actually like English better than Bengali because Bengali has 3 letters that sound exactly the same, you can combine two or more letters to make an all new letter, you can add to the letter multiple ways (two of which sound the exact same). It's all really confusing.

oddly enough from a linguistic perspective english is more "outdated" than other european languages at least |

if someone's multilingual then they very likely didn't know english when they first came to roblox (at a young age at least)
