I’ve watched videos and ordered the right type of connector. It doesn’t seem so hard with flood soldering techniques.
Fortunately the break is clean and happened on the connector’s legs, so the traces are unharmed. I think the hardest part will be to remove the remnants left on the traces.
My headcanon theory is indeed that English is a creole language.
Mix the grammar, verbes and functional words of the lower-status people (natives, imported slaves) and nouns of the higher-status people (invaders, colonizers and masters) and boom, after a few generations you get a creole language.
This theory works surprisingly as well for English as for, for example, Caribbean creoles.
