- You would use in when you are referring to doing some other action through (or using) English. E.g. I am better at arguing in English. 'At' would be more common when you are talking about English directly. E.g. I am better at English than Korean. (you'll notice that the ' at' in the first sentence was applied to "arguing" rather than "English")0 votedDecember 20, 20130
I think Kara has it right. The brain actually doesn't work in any language at all, it just uses language to communicate.
To explain, if you look at fruit on a tree do you see and think "apple", "branch", "tree" etc, or do you just see and recognise the image and know what it represents? Of course you don't go around linguistically naming everything you can see so while you might switch to interpreting and communicating imagery and emotion in different languages, fluency is in many ways about no longer "thinking".

I'm a 15-year-old Chinese girl.I live in Shantou,Guangdong.I'm in Grade Gread 9.
My English grades are not bad,bBut I always can't memorise a word quickly.And I also sometimes forget how to pronounce a word correctly rightly.When I read an article,I can't understand every word, even those that I have seen before that even I have ever seen.I always get top in the exams (you could also say "come first" or "get top marks"),.bBut I have never thought my English skill is really good.I can hardly talk to others in English.And I am not good at writing and listening. What should I do?
My biggest problem is that I am not in good healthy.I seldom eat junk food,although Ilike it very much.I think my eating habit is not bad.But after a P.E. class,I always feel sick.I don't know why.
I really want help,could you help me?Great job. Very few corrections means your English skill is good !!!

This means that when people say the work is well done, the boss pretends that he is responsible for it. That is, it is good because of something he did. So this sentence is this example is Frannie saying the positive changes in Paul are all because of her and the things she has done ("her doing").0 votedNovember 28, 20132
