You know you're a language nerd when…

[Cavesa]

When you roll your eyes and in your mind correct the czech guide's Spanish during your walk through the Prague center.

[LinguaPony]

When you can't drink a cup of tea without dragging your colleague sitting opposite you into a discussion about the niceties of Mandarin Chinese (of which your colleague doesn't speak a word).

You know that things are getting even worse when the colleague in question is not even surprised anymore.

[Teango]

When you appreciate the irony of your little daughter running off with your guide to Russian verbs of motion ...

When you find an awesome resource for learning korean which has been localized into your native language (spanish) and, when you notice that this resource has been localized into other languages (german, chinese, indonesian, french, thai, arabic, etc.), you can't resist but see each and every version and compare them while you think on cultural differences and similarities and why they would choose to present the material in a certain way.

When your goodnight reading the last three nights has been "Quechua für Peru-Reisende" in German from Kauderwelsch, "L'Albanais de poche" in French from Assimil and "Θεσσαλονίκη - Σύντομος Τουριστικός Οδιγός" in Greek from Μαλλιάρης Παιδεία. Actually I had forgotten the Assimil booklet during my last visit, but my mother didn't flinch an eye when she told me that she had found an Albanian 'dictionary' on a table when I left back then and it had to be one of mine.

When you are watching Breaking Bad with French dubbing and start wondering if the drug production process actually leaves some space for listening to foreign language audiobooks.

It certainly gives the means to buy them legally

[Josquin]

... when you're sitting in a Swiss tram, surrounded by people speaking in French, Russian, and Portuguese, and you think you're in paradise (although you can't listen to all of them at the same time!).
