Hrrm...
a. English (i have never been able to do math 'fluently' in any other
language; i can understand numbers in Hebrew, but ever since i was absent
the two days we learnt Spanish numbers in highschool, i haven't been able
to count fluently in any other language.  although i count on my fingers
in finger-binary in Rokbeigalmki)
b. don't remember... i think i just make non-language noises... what do
you mean by crying in a language?
c. Hebrew

i knew i was confused!  :-S  :-)
