I can do tons of humorous humor in #English. But not in my mother tongue #Persian. Maybe I'm not an #Iranian and my parents are not my real parents? Maybe I'm a British orphan boy and these couple decided to adopt me since I was left in the street?

As an alternative explanation, maybe it is Britain's plan to make a very Iran loving Persian like me do good English so I will forget my mother tongue no matter how much I love it? Maybe they are using satellite waves to interfere with my Analog brain signals so I can do better English than Persian?

Why I can do a speech in English but not as good in Persian?

Maybe I'm just a weird outlier geek?

In the first study of its kind, leading expert Albert Costa shares twenty years of experience to explore the science of language. Looking at studies and examples from Canada to France to South Korea, The Bilingual Brain investigates the significant impact of bilingualism on daily life from infancy to old age. It reveals, among other things, how babies differentiate between two languages just hours after birth, how accent affects the way in which we perceive others and even why bilinguals are better at conflict resolution.
