I feel awful about never having learned my husband’s language. It’s very difficult later in life.

There is a proverb that sounds offensive in Portuguese, but it comes to my mind a lot when I teach. “Old donkeys don’t learn languages,” which means it is better to learn when you are young because as age advances, the difficulties will be much more significant for you.
