I write code in a bunch of different languages without breaking a sweat, but the human spoken language has always been a mystery to me. I can barely handle one language, I've tried learning two others and failed miserably except for a very small handful of words.
I love linguistics and the study of language, but i struggle exactly as you. Programming languages are a lot simpler to learn.
Especially these days when so many of them are all based on C. I started off back in the day with basic because pretty much every computer came with that, but now you have various programming languages, scripting languages, things to write web pages, things to build little tiny computers... it's crazy.
