پاسخ : !Thinking in English

I myself sometimes think in English but I don't create sentences, I use the ones I've recently heard. Like now, I'm re-reading Harry Potter Series (Now on book 6 ) and they use a lot of phrases so I use them when thinking but I don't use much new words, just the ones I have complete dominance on​

I've been thinking about it for months! and finally, I came to understand that I can't do that. I realized I just translate the things I want to say in Persian into English, in less than a second! I guess others do the same thing.
I think, thinking in Persian, is something you can't help! It just happens.

I don't agree! take the example of me! my native language is not Persian, and i use Persian only when I"m out with my friend. At home, I use my native language, but still I get to think in both Persian & Engliish. so it is possible! all u need is a bit of strong will!
and remember what I said in a few posts back; as long as u look at english as a subject to study, u won't make much progress. on the other hand, if it becomes some sort of a hobby for u, u'll learn better than anybody else

You mean you think in Persian, the you translate it to English? That's not considered, I guess. 'Cause you're still thinking in Persian & the only job your mind does is translating.​

no, what I say is not that I first say sth in my mind in English, then I myself translate it into Persian consciously! I know i do that, but so quickly that I don't understand!
I mean, if a native speaker who is knowledgeable in languages hears what I say, will definitely understand that I'm not a native speaker. you know, I think you can never express yourself in another language. you can never create something. because it's not you who controls the language!It's language that controls you!. I don't know if I have made myself clear.

Now thinking with myself, I understood that half of my thinking happens in English! and I usually emphasize a lot most of this thinking comes from the books and movies I read and I also watch 3 or 4 series together (I download them every week) and I think they are much better than movies if we want to improve our English.

Have you ever felt that when talking, it's much easier to say something in English? this happens for me like all the time. I know, it's stupid

As a matter of fact that is not stupid at all. It happens to anyone that uses more than one language at a time. In my case sometimes I spent like 10 minutes trying to figure out what a persian meaning for an English word.
The problem is I do know what exactly the word is but I don't know what it's called in persian. for example the word "cozy" it took me almost half an hour to remember what it meant in persian a few days ago.
This thing really gets under my skin

Yeah the same problem goes with me too!
And the worst part is when u r talking to some one then when u explain that u dont remember the persian word they laugh and think u r showing off!
I realy hate that feeling!
!But thinking in eng and talking in eng to myself helps me to calm down in the hardest situations

I only think in English and talk with myself when I listen to english musics, watch English movie or some clips. But it's some weeks that I''m working on English hard so every thing in my mind have changed to english. I wish there was someone in our house who could talk to me in English.
