おはようございます、げんきですか？
Good to get that off my chest, I drop my kid off at a Japanese daycare and our parenting strategy is to stick to English to help with her code switching. My white ass has to say Good Morning knowing full well how to speak Japanese, lol.
Oh, you didn't have to delete your post, it was a valid question. Code switching is basically the ability to change language without mixing them up. It helps a lot with fluency and something professional translators are good at. My daughter asks her mom questions in Japanese and me in English and builds her two languages independently.
No, it's fine, I just remember I can search on the internet, and it gave me the answer.
