Description
So I'm not great with language, and I easily forget words. When I'm not constantly consuming English, I forget how to say thing, but also when I don't use or consume Japanese things I lose vocab there too. So basically this is a visual of how it feels to be bilingual with my brain eheh ^_^Help keep this comic going by supporting it on Patreon! ^_^
Enjoy!

Somehow, because of my background as a Japanese Major, I decided that it'd be neat to pick up other languages to expand my perspective. so for the past three years, I've been casually trying to learn Welsh, Hawaiian and Dzongkha. simultaneously.
THIS COMIC IS MY BRAIN WHEN I TRY TO SPEAK SOME DAYS AND I LOVE YOU FOR DRAWING IT.

Yeah, I've been trying to pick up Korean and Hawaiian but oh boy, I think my brain is a two language brain, sadly >_<

I know right. I basically completely forgot my original language(Japanese) because I grew up around lots of English people.

Yep...
And then sometimes people would get mad at me for using a Japanese word and I was like 'I literally don't know that word in English right now, don't yell!'

I can sympathize -- in school, I was always fantastic at a new language for two semesters, but then my abilities would drop off noticeably. It was very much like all the new stuff pushed out the old...
