        It’s not amazing for anyone to understand if you leave out an unnecessary word. It happens in all languages, even those not connected to civilization at large because humans intuitively understand. You don’t need to explain how you immerse yourself in language or anything, it’s impossible to misunderstand the omission of an unnecessary word

          I simply gave context to how I learn English, nowhere did I say that it’s amazing that I understood an omission of a word, in fact I said that I never noticed how it was omitted until it was pointed out. What are you on about?

            I am telling you something Why are you so defensive? You’re entire argument implies that it is interesting that omitting a word can be understood

              You misunderstood what I wrote and are arguing with me about something I didn’t say, you made up that implication yourself
