Language
is something we start learning from the lap of our mother. Some people believe, to learn any

properly, one must live in the
country
where that

is being spoken either as official or as

Language
is not a

, it is a process. Most of the languages have been evolved over centuries, not years or decades. Every
language

in scripts, as both languages share many alphabets, even words, but these languages are entirely opposite to each other. Sometimes, we understand the meaning of a particular word, but native speakers use it in different context.

no one can speak or understand it better than a native speaker. We do not
