It could simply be that you have acquired some new semantic 'boxes' from learning another language, and now your thoughts are running along pathways that weren't developed for your native language.

Probably that. I find a lot of people condescending/patronizing/infantilizing. Those words aren’t quite correct, those words have a slightly more negative connotation than what I’m going for. So people accuse me of imagining things and don’t get what I’m trying to say. Maybe another language has the word I’m looking for. Who knows?
