Lost in Translation

Being fluent in two languages may help to keep the brain sharper for longer, a study suggests.
Researchers from York University in Canada carried out tests on 104 people between the ages of 30 and 88. They found that those who were fluent in two languages rather than just one were sharper mentally. (BBC)


I would like to introduce myself as Exhibit A in proving that the above study is a complete crock. I have the worst memory and dullest brain of anyone I know. In two languages!
