English is the only language I can think in.. I know how to understand a bit of Spanish, but not enough to speak it fluently or have thoughts in the language :P

Ok... so I'm the weird case. I think in english most of the time, but my main language it's Spanish (when I'm talking in Spanish I don't even think, lol), so when I'm nervous or something I just start talking in english and people don't understand. xD

English cause it's the only language I know how to speak fluently in. While I do know some Spinach and Japanese, I don't really know enough to think it, though I do get Japanese songs in my head often.

I think in Filipino since I'm from the Philippines, but I also think in English on rare occasions.

The little voice in my head speaks English most of the time, but on occasion, I'll think in Spanish, as Spanish is technically a main language for me (along with English).

English, but if I've been reading or speaking French, I tend to think in that sometimes lol.

I mainly think in English, however I do sometimes think in French and have often accidentally blurted out the French words for things instead of the English words lol.

English mostly, unless I'm watching English subbed anime with Japanese audio. In that case my mind makes a few attempts at cobbling together sentences in Japanese, but since I don't really have a strong technical understanding of the language at all, I don't think it's anything coherent.

So generally speaking, since I'm an English speaker, I think in English.

I'd say that 99.5% of the time I only think in English, since that's the only language I'm fluent in. The other .5% is usually if I'm reading or writing in French, than I might be thinking in that (although generally, I'll be thinking "so how do I say that in French?).

In English because it the only language I know fluently but if I'm watching a show that dub in another language some of the phrases get stuck in my head.

English, always. I was pretty intrigued when my bilingual friend said she still thinks in Spanish despite using mostly English nowadays.

I'm fluent in English and Spanish but I only ever think in English. I remember once I tried to think in Spanish for a day but I kept forgetting and messing it up lol.

I think Filipino since I'm from the Phils.

But sometimes while traveling I say English things like Oh, **** what in the world is this ****? :3. Something like that. :3
