Different skills take different amounts of time and parameters to master.

Comparing learning a language to watching a video or reading a recipe and spending a few weeks adding some oil and spices in a pot or pan is ridiculous.





Sorry, I wanted to sound edgier and made my point less clear! What I wanted to convey is, it's waaaaay easier to learn a skill when you've been exposed to it since you were a baby.

My mother and grandmother cooked, but I have never participated, I just ate the food. Does it count as exposure?
