I learned English at age of 8. It was weird, when coming from a phonetic language like Dutch, I agree. I understand Frisian too and a little German. Frisian Is mentioned in the article which surprised me because so few people seem to know about it. I was in Curaçao the first 4 years of life, where they speak Papiamento, Spanish and Dutch, so I've been exposed/immersed in a few. 😃
Spelling bees not being common in phonetic languages is understandable. Hadn't thought of that before. 🥹😆
