how unbelievably easy English is. In structure, in function etc. Especially for entry-level/basic usage (at higher levels of vocab and nuances of copy editing, English becomes a detailed mess)
I no longer believe hat English is the go-to world language only because America is big and powerful and bullied everyone into it... it's just, like, objectively a better/simpler/easier communication protocol
Any other language I've had exposure to (German, Icelandic/Swedish, Portuguese/Spanish, Hungarian) are tons more difficult.
I never cease to be amazed by how you can express profound truths with very simple words
