At physical therapy this afternoon, while showing me a stretch, the therapist said a couple of words of Spanish. I did what I thought she was asking for and asked "¿Como si?" which got me spread hands and "no hablo." I'm nothing like fluent in Spanish, but the code-switching just happened. So I went back to English, and then commented that the bit of Spanish had come out without particular thought, just as if I'd said "like this?" in English.
