I am Turkish and English is my second language.
Here is a memory:
Many years ago I had a girlfriend who was English. One night we drank too much and started quarelling. Despite my very good technical and official English as a second language, I was astonished how little I knew to be able
to quarrel with a drunk woman.

P.S. Because I could not utter any prickly words, the "dispute monologue" did not last long and we were OK again.
