In my life I came across a few people from Italy that moved abroad at different ages of their lives, but all of them had the same outcome, they forgot their native language.
I didn't think it was possible, but they proved me otherwise.
It seems that after living abroad for a long time you are able to almost completely forget your native language, even if you spoke it for two decades.
What do you think? Would you forget your first language if you lived abroad and with no frequent connections with your original community?
