Languages I do know are Portuguese (which is my 1st language), English and a tiny bit of French and Latin (which I learnt at my 1st uni). Also, because I'm obsessed with Bollywood I know a couple of words in Hindi.. I would love to learn Welsh and when I was younger I was obsessed with the idea of learning Yiddish, I can't remember for the life of me why though!! =P Here in Brazil we start learning English at 5th grade, but because my sister is a few years older than me, I came into school already knowing it, because I used to read her notebook, so I was always top of the class and I even used to help my teacher mark other kids exams... =D
Don't give up, you are not boneheaded and you have the perfect outlook to learn which is "I will get there", is fine that you are slower than others, you don't need to be at the same pace as everyone else. Take your own time, do what is right for you and you will get there!!
