I live in a Taiwanese family, but I learn Mandarin Chinese. However, my parents speak Taiwanese between themselves often, and for some reason, even though I have never learned Taiwanese or even know how to speak it, I can understand them. It's like the words go through my brain and I suddenly understand them. Then, I read about a scientist who proposed that genes from our ancestors were passed down to us. This might explain my problem, but is it true?
