ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Embodied bilingual language

Embodied bilingual language means being able to speak two different languages fluently. Imagine you are like a boat that can go in two different directions. On one side, you are travelling in the English language boat; on the other side, you are travelling in the Spanish language boat. When you are bilingual, you can switch between the English and Spanish boats whenever you want, so you can understand and speak both languages easily. Being bilingual is a great skill to have because it allows you to communicate with more people and understand more things.
