Learning English The Hard Way
Learning English isn’t just about grammar and vocabulary π — sometimes it’s about survival, patience, and a good sense of humor π.
In this gentle and funny reflection, Bob shares what it was like learning English after immigrating to the United States at age 13 πΊπΈ. From confusing words and broken “rules” to embarrassing corrections and baffling idioms π€, this is a lived story — not a textbook lesson.
Now at 85, with no accent left and a lifetime of fluency behind him π, Bob offers a calm, thoughtful look at what it really takes to master a language that doesn’t always make sense — and why effort still matters π¬.
This isn’t about complaining ❌.
It’s about perspective π, persistence πͺ, and quiet pride earned the hard way ⭐.
If you’ve ever struggled with English — or assumed it was easy — this one might make you smile π, nod π, and think twice π§
