When I was real young in in one of those early second language programs I was super confused at the concept of different languages. I was like "if people say dinero and just mean money, why not say money in the first place". Like the idea that people weren't thinking in english was just beyond me.

I know someone who last year, as an adult, came to the realization that to Chinese people, 一 means 一 and not "one". Same thing you're saying basically.
