Kevin is a Chinese immigrant who came to the United States in 2003 when he was 18 years old. He mentioned that he continues to have difficulty with comprehending English and sometimes he pretends to understand what others say:
I just learned to understand some topics. Sometimes they [are] jokes [and I’m] like how to hell [was that] so funny? It actually happens to me right now sometimes [and that] I don’t know that. So I’m like okay.”
