What is it like to be a dual native language?

Chinese who have lived in Thailand for a long time have been bilingual since childhood. Experience is the ability to read, write, and speak two languages, and proficiency in two languagesChinese: Personally, I think that my Chinese language proficiency (except for writing and writing articles) is better than Thai, and the phenomenon of forgetting to write and write is very serious, which should be the reason why I have not received formal Chinese education and lived in a non-Chinese character cultural circle, resulting in almost no writing Chinese characters in my daily life.

Thai: The mastery level is worse than Chinese, and the handwriting is better than Chinese It is difficult to translate two languages into each other (especially colloquialisms, puns, jokes, personal names and professional academic terms, you don't know what the words of the other language are without turning the dictionary), and the translation effect is not as good as those who study languages. In terms of pronunciation, it has a bit of an advantage over the average single native speaker, for example, Thai people often confuse zh ch sh pronunciation, and Chinese always confuse pronunciation.

I think it's a good experience, when you know two languages (or dialects), silently pretend not to understand, the other party will ignore your existence and say something that is beneficial or unfavorable to you......At this time, you just listen silently, for example, when you hear the other party say something that makes you feel that the three views are broken, at this time, just pretend not to understand and smile at the person next to you, haha.

Pure Cantonese, living in Zhuhai, watching TVB and Zhujiang TV since childhood, so Cantonese belongs to Cantonese with both Hong Kong and Cantonese styles. My family basically speaks Cantonese to me, but I will learn Mandarin at school since I went to school, so Mandarin is also relatively standard, of course, some post-nasal sounds and tongues are still not so good, but most people will not think that I am actually speaking Cantonese when I hear Mandarin for the first time. You can speak two native languages, and you can say different things depending on who you are talking to, so you don't have any problem communicating.

You can also mix two languages and say it together, because some words are not easy to convert between two languages, and some people will feel very powerful when they hear it. Teach Cantonese in the Cantonese club and meet people who speak Cantonese or want to learn Cantonese. Mandarin also took the second grade test at one time, and it is really interesting to know different languages!

The experience is probably a bunch of languages in a flash, you can capture your familiar language very quickly, such as traveling abroad, suddenly hear someone say Chinese, will you suddenly be very excited I am also like this, I go to school outside, suddenly hear Kazakh, I will be like this, especially when I meet in a restaurant, because I will increase the amount or even reduce the price for you.

I suddenly realized that I was also a bilingual. However, it is super niche, Chinese and Baiyu, I have spoken Chinese at school since I was a child, and I speak Baiyu at home. To explain, it is the language of the Bai people in Dali, Yunnan, which has a language and no writing.

Many of the children of my generation can't speak the vernacular, so I feel a little proud, and I can still speak the vernacular smoothly, which is a good experience.

Japanese + Chinese. Many times after reading Japanese news and the like, after a while, when you think about the content, you can't remember whether you are reading Chinese or Japanese, haha, it's still a fun experience.

Korean, fluent in Korean and Chinese. Korean, don't worry about watching Korean dramas or anything, you have your own translation skills. Chinese is not bad, Mandarin is the second and there is no Northeast accent If you want to ask which 6, I think Chinese is a little more 6 hhhhhh After all, I don't know much about some onomatopoeia in Korean

My mother is from Northeast China, and my father grew up in Northeast China and now lives in Sichuan, so I can speak both Northeast and Sichuan dialects and can switch seamlessly. But the most annoying thing is that there are always people in Sichuan who ask me to say two words of Northeast dialect and two words of Sichuan in the Northeast, which makes me very embarrassed, and I am not a monkey.

Dialect, Mandarin, feel so-so.
