I use this metaphor: If you only learned 50 words from a new language, that may be enough to have a great 2 week vacation but it won't be enough to actually life somewhere else and do successful real legal business.At least it will be quite hard to do so.

Learning a language to be able to do that will take some time and training. But once you learned it, life will be much more easier and success will be easier.

Computer languages are called "languages" for a reason.
