I still sometimes say cat-a-stroph (incorrectly applying a silent e, so it's pronounced just like autotroph) and arch-angel (heavy emphasis on the h, which is apparently silent for lots of people, the same people who say character "arch" when they mean arc, so I genuinely think they might just be having a hard time with the h sound)
English is a very easy language. No gendered nouns (mostly). Relatively simple conjugations: I run, you run, he/she/it runs, we run, they run.
Did I say run? I think it was more of a walk. Or maybe a slightly different but similar word: ambling, footslogging, gallivanting, hiking, hobbling, jogging, limping, lurching, marching, pacing, power-walking, prancing, ranging, roaming, sauntering, shambling, striding, strolling, strutting, treading, trekking, trudging, waddling, or wandering.
Anyway, it's a super simple language. If you already know greek or latin or french. All you have to do is figure out the context of the situation, rifle through the antiquated, modern, and brand-spanking new synonyms for the most appropriate word, hope you got it right, and just repeat that process several times a sentence for the rest of your life.
Heaven have mercy if you foolishly decide to make writing your profession.
