''What created me a human being?'' by Vazha Pshavela

How do you split your personality when speaking English?

It took me 9 years to understand it and over 20 thousand 1-1 sessions with my clients.

A personality split or a shifting sense of self – in the context of acquiring a new language. It’s not a true “split” in the clinical sense of dissociative identity disorder (formerly multiple personality disorder). 

Instead, it’s a dynamic alteration in how we present ourselves, think, and feel, contingent on the linguistic environment we find ourselves in. Let me elaborate:

The Essence of the “Shifting Sense of Self”

Imagine your native language as a well-worn, comfortable garment. It’s woven into your personality, shaping your sense of humor, emotional expression, and even your thought patterns. When you learn a new language, it’s like trying on a new set of clothes – at first, it feels unfamiliar, perhaps a bit ill-fitting. As you become more proficient, the “garment” becomes more comfortable, influencing your “self” in new ways.

"Run Into... a Surprise!" 

Welcome back to *Phrasal Verbs Gone Wild! 

Today, let’s “run into”… “run into”.
 
To *run into* someone means to meet them by surprise.

Maybe you’re sneaking out for a late-night treat, only to “run into” an ex at the bar.

Awkward.

But it’s not just people—you can also “run into” issues, like “running into” last-minute work emails when you’re ready to unwind.

Basically, whether it’s unexpected people or problems, you never know when you’ll “run into” something.

Catch you next time—and maybe you’ll “run into” me instead!
