English isn't my second language, although some might think it is in how poorly I use it, but I learned it the same way as you, only from inside of the culture, not from the outside looking in. A lot of English is idiomatic, and I spoke mostly in the idioms of my generation, with maybe a few connecting words, or explaining words tossed in here and there. Today I think it is worse. It is still just as idiomatic, only there are less idioms, which are just repeated more...but that makes it easier to text.

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
