new to me crazy speaking languages when all speaking english
English is probably the hardest language to learn in the entire world, after Chinese, for non English speakers in my opinion.
Not least because almost everything in English is a symbolic reference, or hyperbole, or an alliteration, or figurative speech, or a metaphor, none of which can be taken literally.
This is why Autistic people who take things literally struggle as English people.
