The Bloggers With The Most To Say

Every time I write a post I have a Dictionary/Thesaurus page open. English is not my first language but right now it's the only language I speak. Whenever I sit down to blog I need a dictionary to 'double check' certain meanings or find an alternative phrase/word...I tend to second-guess myself too much so I google some sentences to see if they make sense...

What about you?

What languages do you speak?
My first language is German, but I blog in English. So yes, I have to use a dictionary to look up some words or phrases. Don't know what I would do without it!
I usually don't think about whether I make mistakes or not. But sometimes, I look at a sentence for too long, and then it suddenly sounds completely wrong. But that also happens when I write in German. :)
When I repeat a word or a phrase over and over again it sounds wrong...in any language!! LOL
Haha I totally do this too. A lot actually...
I usually know the meanings, I just feel like I need to double-check too..
I rarely use a dictionary or thesaurus when writing. English is my first language and I tend to use words I'm very familiar with. But, my browser has spell check and thank goodness, because it saves me all the time. If I'm unsure about a word of phrase I'm using, I will usually just google it to be sure I'm using it correctly.
