Anyone else have dreams in Spanish? ;)

Here recently I have had a few dreams with me talking (...attempting) to talk in Spanish. Just thought it was funny. I'll take that as a good sign my study as a Spanish Education major is going okay! Anyone else have dreams in Spanish?

Hello Ashwad0024. I well remember my first dream in Spanish, in which, among other goings on, I was speaking in Spanish. It’s very exciting! Frankly, it happens seldom with me. But, I think the main point is this: it’s a bigger turning point on the path towards fluency than some people realize. It means, among other things, that you’re motivated and you’re on your way! It’s a big deal and calls for celebration.


By the way, what are your levels of proficiency in English and Spanish? Native English speaker/intermediate in Spanish? (Hint: please fill out your profile. If you don’t do this, other members are at a disadvantage when they’re interacting with you or trying to help you.)

Yay! Thanks for those words of encouragement, Brian. I do have a hard time shutting down the Spanish when I go to bed, but I'll take it as a good sign. Sweet dreams, everyone! - Findy, Apr 20, 2013
Thanks for the feedback! Since posting this I had another one lol. And I updated my profile. Didn't realize that was even there. Just made a profile a few weeks ago lol. - ashwad0024, Apr 22, 2013
Thanks, Ashwad0024. Y bienvenida. - brian5764, Apr 22, 2013

I'm glad to hear someone else experiences this! I seem to have dreams in Spanish every night lately - although most of it is just gibberish with words & sentences that I've learned recently splattered throughout. My goal is to dream fluently one day. lol

I have had one in Spanish. It was a year or so ago but I remember being happy about it and also thought of it as a good sign.

Feels good to know I have gotten something out of my 5 semesters of Spanish, that is for sure. - ashwad0024, Apr 19, 2013

Yo también he tenido sueños en que yo y ¡y otros (de mi imaginación)! hablamos español. Me puso muy contento y reí mucho cuando se despertí :D

Yes I have dreamt in Spanish a few times.

I was back in Bolivia and lost - speaking Spanish did not help me find my way home though.

Doesn't say much for my Spanish I guess.

Outside influences always influence dreams in my humble opinion. I know when I eat cheese within a few hours before bed, my dreams are always very vivid. Maybe some of us have eaten cheese while studying our Spanish right before bed time. lol

I totally agree with Ebeneezer Scrooge when he said to the Spirit, ""You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of underdone potato. There's more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!" -A Christmas Carol; enter image description here

This morning I dreamt I was in my home town and an old friend from my home town was outside my house in the back yard speaking to someone in spanish, but not just any spanish, he was speaking using spanish slang from the specific region I currently live in, and I was totally confused that he was doing that as he only speaks english.. Then I woke up and realized it must have just been my neighbors outside talking and I picked up their conversation and incorporated it into my dream somehow.

It's weird how outside noises become part of your dream when you are dreaming.

I found this explanation to your dream about spanish:

To dream that you are spanish , means that the shadow will feel is jealousy. To dream you see a spaniard , means you will soon experience exotic associated with many emotions.to dream of spain represents a mindset that is seductive and dishonest.

Dream about being spanish

Allthough I don't belive this being the case with you, it's just a random dream involving your occupation

El soñar el sueño imposible ...

Pelear ... el enemigo invencible ... Para llevar ... con el dolor insoportable ... Para correr ... donde los valientes no se atreven a ir ...

Hacer el bien ... al imposible mal.. El amor ... puro y casto de lejos ... Para tratar de ... cuando tienes los brazos demasiado cansados ...

Este es mi deseo de seguir la estrella No importa como desesperado, no importa que lejos

Alcanzar... la estrella inalcanzable..

en íngles Sí -------------------------------------------------------

To dream ... the impossible dream ...

To fight ... the unbeatable foe ... To bear ... with unbearable sorrow ... To run ... where the brave dare not go ...

To right ... the unrightable wrong ... To love ... pure and chaste from afar ... To try ... when your arms are too weary ...

This is my quest ... to follow that star No matter how hopeless, no matter how far

To reach ... the unreachable star ...

Chao
