      If you need to use a language for ten years in a fully immersed setting and have not learned conversational level skills, the issue is that you didn’t really try, no matter your age.

      I can understand if someone has a learning disability, but that is a small fraction of people.

        Wrong. Try and make your grandparents learn a new language in 10 years with them being 50-60 years old.

        Judging by this thread you do.
