How does the language in which we think change?

So at one time the language my brain uses to express thought changed from one language into another and I can't understand the process behind that. (At that time I lived in another country for some time and was not confronted a lot with my first language.)

How does that happen? My brain made all these associations throughout my life doesn't it have to "reboot" all the information? Isn't it difficult to translate everything I remember? Why does my conscious mind do that, even though I understand my first language better?

As you can tell, I have a VERY rudimentary understanding of neuroscience. Do these questions make sense?

Language is so fundamental to how we think. I am just confused about how this drastic change happens.

As sea levels continue to rise, will sand migrate to the "new" beach locations? Or will sandy beaches end up becoming a thing of the past?

Does consuming violent content make you used to violence?

My parents say that watching or playing violent content will make you not care about murder and not feel guilt etc. Is this true? Could you give me some links regarding this as well?

When I ignite methanol, is it only the fumes that's on fire, or is it the liquid burning itself?

Artists picking color schemes talk about the psychology of certain colors a lot (red = rage/passion, green = nature/health, yellow=activity/sportiness, etc.) and often discuss them as cultural universals. Are they?

Because whenever I hear these arguments my suspicion meter goes to max. Even what even counts as a "basic/simple color" is not a cultural universal so how could "color mood" be?
