I'm also an I.T. guy, Ukrainian national (Ukrainian and Czech both belong to Slavic language family), so I think I deeply understand what OP wants to say just by looking at my English-speaking colleagues. | |
| Dec 1, 2015 at 15:32 | comment | added | user10982 | Thanks for the answer. Makes sense to me, and yeah, @Sverre, I am communicating for the most part in English (currently with my wife, colleagues at work, etc. who are all Czech native speakers). I still can't shake the feeling though that there is "loss" present, but maybe it's just an observational bias. | |

| Dec 1, 2015 at 15:26 | comment | added | Sverre | Are you sure that the OP is using English as his daily language in the country he's living in now? I can nevertheless echo what the OP is saying. I lived for six years in a country where I had little opportunity to speak my native language, and it definitely suffered as a result. | |
