/lit/ I'm a western guy with about 15 years of experience in Japanese language and literature, and as I delved into their older works and older poems, reading them is almost like reading a different language entirely, in which you need to actually translate within the language what the poems are saying and the meaning behind the words being used.

Anything like that for English or similar that you can relate to this?
