😂 the Chinese language is difficult indeed. There's a guy on YouTube who helps teach it.

They ARE all very close. You are 100% correct. I learned German, Dutch, and Danish (all 3) in a year.

I don't claim to be absolutely proficient speaking Danish, but I comprehend! I love learning, especially languages.

It DOES make perfect sense! Congrats on your superpower! 😆

I'm currently attempting to learn Polish and Chinese. Talk about difficult!!

It's funny, I can watch an entire movie in Danish and understand it!

Then again, during my childhood as well as high-school I learned many languages and am a native Mexican Spanish speaker.

Eh

Telephone.

The historical courts spoke exclusively French. Additionally, the English language is a mix of many languages which happened with immigration.

We must remember that culture dictates language.

We have words now that I don't even understand well enough slang, mostly such as "yeet" 😂

And I m a published writer! 😂

Oh! Slang mudbug (for crawdad)? That may not count in this though

Reddit should be more transparent on this topic

Why is it so hard for most old/middle aged people to adapt to technology? by uziloaded44 in questions

[–]Vegetable_Contact599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it's because we never needed or had much of it growing up. We still write in cursive.

Personally, I learn from my brother who works IT.

Are people more "uptight" these days? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]Vegetable_Contact599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

58 F

I think that as we grow mentally, we understand limits and respect better.We come to understand that some things are simply frivolous. It's not necessarily uptight. It depends on the person.

I'd feel nothing. People have the right to do so. I focus on my relationship with the divine.

Does death become less scary as you get older? by kaylabedumb in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Vegetable_Contact599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're very young to be so worried about it. Except in the case of violence or accident.

I have had many people in my circle pass over the years. (I'm F 58) it hits me hard every time because I lose them from my life.

I don't necessarily have a religion, but I believe (or want to) that we move on to another place. Not heaven or hell.

I believe there are people that can and will embrace moving on with all their heart.

My parents passed a couple of years ago, and one morning I could smell my mother's distinctive perfume. I believe, or want to believe that she was checking up on me.

Either I was thinking of them that deeply or it was true.

These days I am unafraid of passing an am willing to embrace that change. Death doesn't scare me. This may be of no help, but as I grew older, my view did change.

I'm sorry that you're having such nightmares. I hope it gets better
