Since the way a language develops is a reflection of the mindset of the people who use that language, understanding the cultural context of a military in which you have not extensively operated can be aided by learning the language. Of course, languages aren't constant, for example, the Ćnglisch tongue hast changéd over tyme. And even if you grew up speaking a military's language, you may still need to learn the military language.

So how much effort do you put into that type of learning?
