I live in a country that doesn’t speak english. Trust me when i say it isn’t cheating using a translator. Until you’re conversationally fluent you’re going to confuse or not understand a lot of words/phrases. For me it was best to carry a translator or dictionary until i understood most of what was said. Now i figure stuff out by context or asking questions about the word i don’t know.
