RE: Thinking

Heather Myers ([email protected]) [KLI Member] [Hol ghojwI']

I dunno if anyone can teach a person to think in another language.  I
first realized I could think in Klingon at a qep'a', where I was
immersed in the language for a few days at a time.  I was just trying to
better my skill in the language so that I could talk to people with more
proficiency.  It takes a while to build up, and if English is my primary
language of use, it doesn't happen.  For me, it's something that
develops along with my skill in the language.  I sometimes think in
French, though rather rarely.  I might be able to think in Latin if I'd
ever had the opportunity to use that language conversationally when I
was learning it.

I think that the more skill you gain in Klingon, the more natural it
becomes to you, the closer you'll come to thinking in Klingon.

Someone recently mentioned that they can think in tlhIngan Hol. I'm 
fascinated by this, but have never been able to manage it. Would
anywarrior 
be willing to tutor me in this? It would really assist my speaking.
