"Enough that I know better" has as much backstory implication as "Baby shoes for sale, never worn".

On that note, i sense a little bit of maybe some societial bias? Well, a lot, but in this case specifically about speaking. It occured to me Jaster seemed more surprised Wik "could talk" and never how he learned the language. Makes me wonder if there is a perception of mares being on a lower level and unable to speak than simply having their own equally complex way of doing so. More like a talking dog than another linguistic being, if that makes sense

Song you are so good with allegories I'm gonna die. To create a literal language barrier and then give the main character the "wrong" language growing up, and seeking those you can understand is such a genius and poetic way to depict irl struggles with gender. I can't wait to see how much deeper it runs than even this, and how the story will go
