Does the language you think in change what you notice?

Lera Boroditsky's talk "How Language Shapes the Way We Think" explores the idea that speakers of different languages may pay attention to different things: how they describe space, time, colour or responsibility. The question is old and contested. Some claims about language and thought have been challenged, and the size of any effect is debated.

We are asking multilingual readers especially. Have you noticed that you think, feel, remember or behave differently in one language than in another? A good answer would give a concrete, specific example, such as a word with no equivalent, a grammatical habit, or a topic that feels easier to discuss in one language. It would say whether you think the difference is in the language or in the culture around it, and what evidence, beyond your own experience, would help to tell them apart.

Examples from languages with fewer speakers are welcome, as are doubts about whether the effect is real.
