Languages - May 2007

I'm bilingual, English and Portuguese, and I find I can think in either one, depending on what I'm doing. So how common is this in bilingual people? Can all bilingual people do this?

¡Usted puede saltar en la piscina y pasar tiempo con su familia!

Near the end of the movie "Cars", what did the new Ferrari say to the old Ferrari? He was speaking Italian, and no translation was given. I could only make out the last word, "fantastigi", which I assume means "fantastic".

English is my second language. Lately, I've seen, many times, people using the word "pretty", where I'd use "beautiful". Does one word mean "more" than the other, or they just are used in different situations, to refer to different kinds of things?

Thank you for your answer, and have a wonderful day! :)

I know of mon cher in French and shatze (sweetheart) and mein lieb (my love) in German. I would like to know some other sweet pet names or sayings I could say to my boyfriend. Nothing dirty or perverted, please.

Alot of people have a hard time pronouncing one or two particular letters when they talk but i have trouble saying every word that comes out of my mouth. people say i have a really deep voice and it sounds like i have a british accent but i'm not british at all. The girls i hang out with say its cute but i hate the way i talk because i just have a hard time saying everything. please, if there is anybody who had this problem could you please help me. and im also a 12 year old male and my friend akeeha and alot of others say i sound 18+ but i like the deepness because it makes me sound more mature. i just hate the way i say words so could someone please tell me some ways so i dont struggle as much; alot of you might "its something to be proud of etc etc) well if you heard me you would understand what i mean. lol. thanks,tyler.
