That's probably because you are forced to slow down and respond less erratically since more brain power is going to speaking so less can be made in snap judgements. I know I have a hard time getting excitedly angry when "speaking" (more like stumbling) in a second language because I can't just shout something out. I have to take more time figuring out what I'm saying.
- Broken_Hippo 10y agoThat is completely true - I have to think about what I say more. And I don't have so much practice speaking angrily in my second language at all, actually. Practically speaking, those aren't the words I'm using often. I even find it much harder to speak ill about someone else, just because those words haven't been nearly as important to me.
