Results showed that bilinguals seem to be more efficient at ignoring information that's irrelevant, rather than suppressing — or inhibiting information.

      You become the gigachad who realizes that most of school education is probably not worth the attention, you skip through classes and master things you really enjoy doing in the meantime.

        Then in college realizes that they have the attention span of a 5 year old and have zero discipline to do prep reading before class. Fails the first year and becomes a drop out.

          No that’s not how my story continues. I didn’t buy the “pessimist guide” I bought the “personal resource management” book.

    This study considers me monolingual since I never learned my second language in a classroom and. I learned it as an adult. So…I guess fluency doesn’t count. Que grosero.

        If you want to really sound like a spanish speaker say it like hijueputas. In english I’d transcibe it like ee-hway-POO-tahs. It sounds way more rude like that.

      For me it’s usually plants, and I still manage to suck at them. I do know some fun facts though.
