The first language that I learned was Bangla, but I don't speak it anymore because I grew up in America, surrounded by English-speaking people...
Now, I mostly speak English, and sometimes it seems like a foreign language to me...
I took French, and that opened my eyes to the fact that I really suck at learning foreign languages, and I was able to look at English with "fresh eyes."
Sometimes my mind wanders, and it takes a few seconds for me to grasp the meaning of certain English words even though they're really easy...
The words that I grew up with suddenly seem alien...
Am I making sense?
