I’ve always used English and Spanish throughout my life. But with the political climate since 2016, I’ve been a bit more anxious about using Spanish, but thankfully it’s never caused anything.

Thank you for sharing that. I definitely have felt anxious speaking Armenian out in public as well.

I love that you shed light on the hidden steps that come with being multilingual.

The piece from Zerubavel reminds me of linguistic determinism where the argument there is that our thinking is restricted by the languages we know.

I love all that you shared here!
