Like I’m a Spanglish speaker sometimes since I already know Spanish (my native) and English!!

¡Buenas noches a todos! I will probably go dormir ya que son las 23:20 where I live.

Hmmm actually yes. I implement a lot of English words and expressions when I speak German / Swiss German (regional dialect). To a lesser extent also when I speak Brazilian-Portuguese, but then it's usually to be able to communicate fluently when I can't think of the correct Portuguese word. I have a Portuguese friend who spend like a decade in the US and some years in Switzerland. So usually we speak in Portuguese or English and often it's a mix where I use both languages at the same time, sometimes even in the same sentence, wit some German words sprinkled in here and there.
