My native language is dutch, but I'd say about a third of the time I think in english. Especially when I am doing math, working on my computer or daydream.

I think in the language that I'm currently using. If I'm talking to people in German, then my thoughts are German. If I talk to Americans, my thoughts are in English. My thoughts also change to whichever language that I'm currently reading, so for example on voat, my thoughts are in English and if I read a German news site they switch to German.
I still remember when I learned my third language, French, in the beginning it felt like I was thinking like a translator; thinking in English or German and then translating words to French, but once I started getting better at the language, I actually started thinking in French.

I worked with a Brazilian woman who said that her internal monologue switched completely to English after 10 years of living in he US.

I speak English and Indonesian. At first the language for my internal thoughts were more leaning to Indonesian, but at the age 9-11 it sort of changed to English. So now anything I do is in English. I'll only do Indonesian if the environment, the conditions, and the situation demands it.
I am learning French at the moment and sometimes a French word would pop here and there.

It's a bit of a mix-up between all of the languages.
