Maybe she married him...?

Wow, that is super hot. And to make that a question, wow, that is super hot?

Something that I find strange though, about native speakers versus foreign fluent speakers is that there is always something slightly off (and here I don't just mean accents, but I think accents are incredibly interesting) - but how you formulate ideas and sentences. "I am a female 28 years old and work as a translator for the French Government" that sentence is awkwardly structured, even with commas included in the English language - but is it so in arabic? It's something that always has fascinated me, because even though it is correct use of the language, it is not common usage - a native speaker can tell!

Along the dream thing, do you ever dream in other languages? My mom was at one point fluent in spanish and malay and said that she occasionally dreamed in those languages... also, do you have different personalities for different languages? Do you find that when you are speaking in English you tend to feel harsh whereas when you speak arabic you feel loving and calm? These are just random examples of course, but I think that the billions of connections that your brain makes might be different depending on when and how you learned the language (like if you learned Italian while you were dating an Italian, so the language is subconsciously connected to love).

Sorry, it's not very coherent, but if you would be so kind to answer a few of my questions I'd be quite pleased.
