We have someone in our system who understands Irish Gaelic, but cannot speak it. We also have a language in our "inner world" (Alorya) but we have a really hard time getting it from inside to outside, if that makes any sense. As soon as we try to make any sense of the language or speak it aloud or even just try to remember it, our "brain" decides to translate it automatically into English, which is really frustrating. Consequently even though we've known about this language for a long time, we've only managed to translate a handful of Aloryan words.
