Hay que sentir el pensamiento y pensar el sentimiento. (You must feel your thought and think your feeling.)
-Miguel de Unamuno, 1864-1936, Spanish novelist
"People who speak two languages can process certain words faster than others." This is the conclusion of a study reported in Scientific American Mind (January 2010).
The study's researchers observed that children who know two languages more easily solve problems that involve misleading clues. Knowledge of a second language — even one learned in adolescence — affects how people read in their native tongue. The findings suggest that after learning a second language, people never look at words the same way again.
