I think in sign language sometimes, ASL.; as well as mathematics (which I consider to be a language). The other two languages I've taken classes in, Latin and Spanish: I don't think in them at all. Except for "Cuidado: Piso Mojado." That phrase is quite handy. "Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa" is another one. Oh, "je suis, un criminel" (sp?) as well. You can thank Anne Rice for that last one.

The math thing is very interesting. All my advanced math classes have been in English, but I learned the basics in German. To this day I prefer thinking about math in German (also german is much more concise!)
