I speak several languages so i also have to listen to them being spoken but when hearing loss occurs it is not the language that is the problem but the people.

Men are the worst to hear because the have low voices and mumble a lot or speak without looking at the person. Woman tend to talk to fast and the (particularly) when I wear my hearing there voices are very thrill and hard to follow.

So, in my case changing the language ir not the most pressing problem.
