If I need to write a text in language A, the most efficient way for me is to initially write it in a terrible mix of languages A, B, and C, with a splash of languages D and E.
A word or expression I need may not pop up in the right language immediately, and if I start fishing for it in the deeper parts of my brain, I'll likely lose my train of thought.
Guess how this post was written!

www.refinery29.comI Code-Switch To Survive, But It’s ExhaustingMany Black women, including myself, are forced to play a role, constantly adapting to the expectations of a society that wasn't built for us. Code-switching isn't a choice we make lightly. Whether in the workplace, at school, or among friends, it's a strategy to navigate societal norms that place us on a constant tightrope of acceptability.

Code switching is a common practice within the black community.
Some conservatives have claimed that this #linguisticshift was #evidence of #inauthenticity, essentially #questioning Harris’ #blackness. Their #confusion highlights the need for more #constructive #conversations on #race and #communication.

Why is #Klingon the only #language that seems to bypass universal translators? For that matter, how does #codeswitching work when using universal translators? And why do everyone's lips move as if they're speaking #English?
