Re: The languages of our dreams

Most of my dreams that I remember don't involve interaction with people all that much but I think in English during them. On odd occasion I will hear Japanese or Serbian in my dreams but very rarely.
The only example that can come to mind is this dream I had where I was travelling in town somewhere and I heard someone speaking Japanese. Since I was learning it at the time for school I really wanted to practice it with them as this was a rare opportunity (there aren't that many Japanese in Sydney) and when I got close to the speaker I was disappointed to find out that they were not Japanese (I think they were Indian or something) and were just practicing the few phrases they knew themselves.
EDIT: The night after I posted this I had a dream in Esperanto. I dreamt that I was in a book shop looking to buy Esperanto books and was asking about them in Esperanto with the lady at the counter. Pretty cool
