Some just have different brains. I think most people could not do that no matter how hard they tried, but with billions of people some just can.

  It's not as hard as you think, he's an English speaker and French and English shares approximately 40% of the vocabulary. And once you have mastered French, you have the other 80% needed for Spanish as it's a Latin language like French.

    How hard do you think I think it is? Are you implying that it's easy for an English speaker to master the English scrabble word list?

      Well, I think it is impossible, so the comment works for me. And I refuse to update my priors to account for the fact that somebody did it. Because I can’t even memorize the English scrabble dictionary well enough to enjoy playing. I am happier to live in a universe in which Scrabble is just impossible.

    For the stated time frame, it's definitely as hard as you think, and then much, much, much harder.
