I read in both Arabic and English. Some books are very hard for me to grasp, so I find a translated copy and read it in Arabic. For example, I’m currently reading “the Count of Monte Cristo”. It Has some old English that gets me confused a lot, even though I have a Kobo where I can just press and hold on a word to translate it, but still, the storyline as a whole got confusing, so I read it in Arabic. Much better. I’d love to hear from folks here :)

    That depends on the topic. While German is my native language, there are some areas in my vocabulary where I actually only know the English words, but have no idea of their German equivalent.
