If you could burn something, do you call it "flammable" or "inflammable" ??

At first, I though it should be flammable since "in-" prefix has negative meaning but lately, I see both form used liberally to denote the same thing (that you could burn). What does the"in-" actually means ?

And how do we call something that won't burn ? Non-flammable ? Is it right gramatically ?

Thank you

Best regards,

"Sua presença é um presente para o mundo
Você é unico(a) e só há uma pessoa igual a você
Sua vida pode ser o que quiser que seja
Viva os dias, apenas um de cada vez
Conte suas bençãos, não seus problemas
Você os superará, aconteça o que acontecer

1. Liebe - German

2. Liefde - Dutch

3. Amore - Italian

4. Amour - French

Tell me any other ways you know how to say it.
Please and thank you.

A native Spanish speaker sent me an email in Spanish. Spanish is my second language, and I am not sure if I translated the email properly. Can someone help me out. The text of the email is:
que pena que nos hemos cruzado en las llamadas. Si puedes ll´mamae
mañana de noche a mi celu o a mi casa, supongo que te sale más barato.
El teléfono de mi casa es *********
Un beso y chau,

I only speak english. I know a few words in spanish, but I can't imagine how it would feel to speak another language fluently. So my question is: How do you think when you speak a non-native language? For me, lemonade means "lemonade" but if you're speaking spanish do you still think in english in your mind? Saying to yourself "the word I want is la limonada". Or does it just come naturally like speaking your native tongue?

If the question doesn't make sense, I apologize, but bottom line is, how does your mind work when you're fluent in another language?

In modern German there is a distinction between "mann(adult male)" and ;mensch (human being)". Old English was a Germanic tongue also.

Do you say nee-ther or nii-ther?

Is it a case of a person's accent that differentiates between the two?
