It was a response to a pro-Russian troll writing that Ukrainians are Russians and that Ukrainian is a dialect.

As a linguist you totally outclass me.

In Thailand in 1989 I was unintentionally telling everyone I talked to in Thai that I was a woman. They were all smiling. Learning a few hundred words to converse in Bahasa Indonesia was much easier.

At 68 I find processing Portuguese's phonetic kisch-misch quite difficult, though it's easy to speak.
