I know the same feeling with English and German. It really is a wonderful thing. I think this would be called Code-switching [0].

> In linguistics, code-switching or language alternation occurs when a speaker alternates between two or more languages, or language varieties, in the context of a single conversation.

Belta loda! You sound like your speaking the Belter slang from the scifi series The Expanse. Set a few hundred yrs into the future, slang used by the working class out mining the asteroid belts.

Wow, closest I can get to that mix is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VqUiSdd3yM , an english band interpreting a finnish tango.

Swedish will have to be separate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hdUKZLQIuQ

(Are you a finland-swede or sweden finn? If either of those, I'm a fan of both Army of Lovers and Nightwish.)

Haha yes that Zappa gig is a classic!

"Swedish-speaking finn" or "Finland-swede" yes.

I hope they won't be training it on HN corpus, because I don't want an algorithm to spit out my own rants back at me...
