haha I had a friend in high school, his dad worked at a local store as a clerk, but spoke multiple languages in what appeared to be "fluency", but I was young... anyways, he found this book at a yard sale "Russian by pictures", a year later he is throwing around full Russian sentences...

Some people are just magic at learning languages. 2 vs 10 isn’t that much more work. Always seemed wild to me as I struggled with Spanglish.
