Q. What language did your parents speak as their primary language SmileyRose?
A. Neither could speak any other language, other than the English language.
Q. What is the primary language of the rest of your family SmileyRose, ie what language did your sisters, ex-husband and children speak?
A. They could only speak the English language as their primary language. It was the only language we all spoke together.
If you come from a Scots, Irish, Welsh, American, New Zealand or Australian background, you are likely to speak English as your primary language!
If you come from another white background, it may mean that English is not necessarily your primary language.
Primary language is the language that someone uses most frequently to communicate with. It is the language a person uses in most situations. For many people, their primary language is their first language, but for others, their primary language might be their second language.
My family’s primary language, #English, is their first language.
