I have been doing these research for many years. I always tell my students that English is very easy to learn and bring these examples connected with similar words with the same meaning in English and Armenian.
For example: English Armenian
am em
team tim
hero heros
door dur
listen lsel
Do you have "taxi" in Armenian? I'm told that this word is exactly the same in the most languages.
