Yeah, I'm seeing Monkey-B gradually swapping her "baby-face" to an older girl 🙈.
...and they say this is because they are better able to convey their true feelings in English.
Same goes for, I express myself way easier in English than in Dutch and often times I know the English word of something and I see myself trying to remember the DUtch word for it 😅.

Yep, my little girls is becoming a pre-teen, and she sure hates being called one 😉. Funny how our environment affects our language, here in Cambodia I sometimes talk in Khmer to myself when planning out the day, and there's no logical reason for it, and when I notice myself doing it I stop immediately and think in English.
Interesting... I don't know much about the Kmer language, but does it maybe have to do with fewer meaning or fewer options, which makes it easier to think to yourself?
When I read/hear stories like these, I could kick myself for not studying languages, because these stories of how languages evolve, mix, etcetera are so interesting.
