Marathi is spoken in my family. I don't remember when I learned it. I started learning English when I was 5. When I was 7, I moved school and learned Hindi.

Learning Hindi wasn't difficult because it's quite similar to Marathi

I can speak in Nepalese, English and I want to become more fluent in German than I am right now. But I've got nothing on my dad, he speaks about 8 different Indian languages (not dialects). My comprehension of it is just being able to understand what they say but not being able to reply back in the language whoops

Depends on the person who I am talking with. But if I'm alone I speak the one I'm most comfortable in that specific moment. It's really weird because when I'm in the street and I listen two people talking 2 different languages, I understand them both at the same time but my brain think in a third language so it doesn't mix the incomes. Weird.

Nepalese is my native tongue, so since birth, but I began learning English during my kindergarten years/when I was around 4-5

Predominantly in English because I've lived in England for the greater half of my life but sometimes I do do the odd misspeaking in Nepalese when someone's talking to me in English haha
