Dreaming

Have you ever dreamt in your study language? It might be your second or maybe even 3rd language?

I asked because I dreamt in Japanese for the first time last night.. Was surreal!

For those who are fluent in 2 or more languages, Do you often have dreams in another language?

I look forward to hearing from you all!

Hahah yeah, Last week I was speaking Japanese and I didn't know what I was saying. I was speaking too fast. -_-
I always have dreams like this.

Sometime I dream in English, but most of the time in Dutch. I dont speak Japanese good enough to do that I think

I did that around my 3rd month in Japan. I cant be 100% sure, but I think I was quoting something from 'Soul Eater' in my dream (I was watching a lot of it at the time).

Dreaming for the first time in Japanese I think shows your brain has passed one of the biggest hurdles in "accepting" the language as your own. Congratulations. I remember the first time I dreamed in Japanese, as well.

Thanks MMM, I found what you said really motivational

I feel really accomplished now haha! Still got a LONG way to go though before Japanese is really my own

Yeah...but at least you can know you are not one of those guys that is going to drop out and give up because your brain doesn't "get it".

Wow, can't wait now untill I dream in japanese x)

I don't think I will though, because english is my 2nd language, and I don't think I've ever dreamt in it before (I rarely remember dreams though). I do occationally think in english though. Like for an entire day and things... XD

But I don't think those really count =\
