I speak 2.5 languages. I'm fluent in Spanish (my birth language) and English,and I know enough Italian to help a lost tourist in the subway. Though being able to communicate in more than one tongue has its serious benefits - there are more jobs available to me, I have an easier time when traveling abroad, and some studies even say we're smarter (tooting my own horn here) - there are struggles. Boy,are there struggles.
More than once, I have spoken Spanish to someone who has no opinion what I'm saying, and words have near out of my mouth in a total jumble of Spanglish that not even I understand. Minor issues,certain, but if you're bilingual, and you know it doesn't close there. Keep reading for a list of the everyday situations you probably also face - bilinguals,unite!
