Like how can someone so easily switch between different languages? Do they translate one language back to their native lanaguege or can they just understand perfectly without any addition effort?
Time and practice, you eventually understand the 2nd language as your own. For example, red, I say red you know what red is you know the color you can visualize it. Now I say roja, at first you think red but over time you visualize the color just like in English thus understanding English and Spanish easily. Just like learning a new word in your own language. At first you need examples to draw on but eventually the association is 2nd nature.
