I have a funny relationship to language. when i came to california when i was three i spoke urdu fluently and i didn't speak a word of english. within a few months i lost all my urdu and spoke only english and then i learned urdu all over again when i was nine. urdu is my first language but it's not as good as my english and it's sort of become my third language. english is my best language but was the second language i learned.
