What is your first language before the mother tongue?

Tweet

The mother tongue/dialect was the person's first language in his/her society or country, but it does not apply to some people because they were taught by their parents to speak the other language before the native language and take note that the person who's learning the other language first before the mother tongue does not mean that person was a social deviant to the society. so what's your first language before your mother tongue/dialect? I was trained by my parents how to speak English at an early age here in the Philippines, not to mention that i was mistaken by the common folk that i was raised in the US due to my accent but in fact i wasn't.
