I have never tried Korean, but I am literally always suspicious when anyone tells me a language is easy to learn. K-Pop fandom keeps posting about the ease of Korean. And, I mean, they're probably not wrong? It's just that all language learning is hard for me? What's weird is that that I decently good at auditory learning. This is partly why I use text to speech on the ChatGPT. I have a fighting chance to pronounce Japanese correctly. Spelling it? Good luck!

And, yes, apparently my brain decided that big spiders (or a big spider, as Japanese has no plural) was, in fact, an excellent emergency. Surely you would waive the rule against bicycles if an army of swarming giant spiders was approaching.
