I started to say that I only dream in my national language, and then I realized that is not true. Once a long time ago I had a very vivid dream in a language that I do not even speak, but in the dream I was conversing fluently in that other language. When I awoke, I knew what language it was, but could not remember a word of it, but I remembered having spoken it in the dream. Then another time I was adding a long list of 5 or 6 digit numbers in my head. There was no way to check to see if my addition was right, because I sure didn't remember them when I awoke. But some of my dreams have symbolic and silent language that seem real in the dream but then turn surrealistic when I awaken. There is no spoken or written language associated with those dreams. In fact the thought forms in my dreams are almost always silent even when language is perceived. The language is not spoken in my dreams but transmitted in some other way. Now I am curious to know if other people hear things in their dreams.

i had always dreamt in my mothertongue and other than that never. actually its a good question you raised and it is really strange that a person usually dreams their own montongues and not any other languages. and i think here it is good to dream in our own languages as its common with our near ones and it is easily understandable.
