I had a similar experience with trying to relearn vocab from a language I spoke as a kid. I couldn't tell if I just learned the language wrong or if the app was feeding me bullshit. I knew I learned a weird dialect but the differences were in basic phrases relating to family life -- the stuff that can't change with a dialect without it getting classified as an entirely distinct language. glad to learn I wasn't crazy.
