To people who were born speaking a language then moved to somewhere with a different language. Do you find your inner monologue speaking the new language or do you think natively and translate for speech?

    My inner monologue is almost pictographic. So, first, if I think “that rabbit is big”, I think “rabbit with arrow to it, highlighting its size”. Then, when I want to do more complex things, it’s translated into a random language, and has said operations done on it.
