Mostly in my native language (portuguese). I think in english or german when I am having a conversation in those languages, or reading/writing in them. I cant have two different languages in my mind at the same time. Even if is just the TV at the background, I tend to switch to the same language as it.
People who can do live translation baffles me. The quick switching back and forth between languages is impossible to me.
