I don't have an accent when speaking french or english so I am pretty bilingual, but when i talk in french, I think in french and when I speak english, I think in english. Link to comment

At the level I'm at, I never translate back during reading and dialogue. The accent becomes modifyable and ny speexh becomes smoother with time. However, when I argue, I realized I did translate back because of the difficulty of making sentences work in a given context. I'm far from perfect in that matter because I don't use those english skills in real life, at all. As for @SilentGuns god you're right. Punctuation is hard in every languages, punctuating a language that isn't yours fucks me and my sentences up.Roux just add ",cunt" to the end of a sentence if you wanna sound harsh, but in all honesty I'm learning Spanish and tones/types of sentences is definitely the hardest part.
