Home Language

Interesting thought. I’m reading Living Your Strengths from Gallup and they have lots of Bible quotes. In English.

Now, when I read those Bible verses it simply doesn’t feel right. No, not the idea or the content – the language! The words. They are strange, they don’t seem to mean what I think they ought to mean.

See, the problem is my “heart” language is not English. While I’m capable in English and I have an English GF and I work in an English company and I have an English blog, I pray in a different language – my mother tongue, Afrikaans.

I wonder in what language I dream?

What do you think?
