When learning a foreign language, learners try to translate phrases from their native language to the target language using a word-by-word or structure-by-structure approach. That not always works. It would help if you embraced the fact that sometimes the way we say things don't quite make sense, but we are so used to saying them in a certain way that we don't notice it. That comes up when someone from a different background notices it. There are many weird ways of saying things in English as well. The way to go about it is to simply memorize it. By the way, it is easier to memorize weird things than ordinary things. Just ease into the process and have fun. You are creating new neural pathways. Once they are created, learning will start to feel easier.
