I was just wondering about all the Europeans (excluding UK)... like do y'all understand... say, an American movie or TV as well as those in your national language?

I understand perfectly. I can read it, I can hear it, I can write it. The only thing I can't do, even if my life depended on it, is speak it. But that's the fault of English and its non-existent pronunciation rules. That shit is based entirely on ✨vibes✨.

Now I get why spelling bee is such a big deal in the US, jeez...
