> a long long time to understand

No. The vim language has a simple and easy to understand grammar that is very close to that found in many natural languages. That part is freaking easy to grasp. The vocabulary is a lot bigger, though, but like with natural languages, you can be a perfectly functional speaker/user without knowing everything there is to know. As long as you make yourself understandable and know how to use a dictionary you are fine.

And, like with all natural languages, practicing, making mistakes… are keys.
