How to understand the LGPL license for Qt to a person without a legal basis?

Good day.
A couple of days ago there was a question about writing a GUI with the visualization of some graphs for an embedded project, which will later be distributed under an opensource license. After that, I immediately fell in love with Qt and its Charts. After rereading the Qt Licensing terms , I still do not understand how I can use Qt charts without fear. Reading licenses in their original format does not give them an understanding, they are written in some strange language, which, by the end of their reading, turns into a mess in the head.
0) If someone has dealt with linking Qt to an opensource project, please share your experience.
1) Is there actually a resource that can help me clarify this issue?
2) If you know any convenient alternatives to Qt for drawing interfaces and graphs that are distributed by MIT, please share them in an answer.
Ps used before this SDL2 & ImGui - pretty good bunch, but the latter doesn't give a hassle-free way to display multiple data classes on a chart..

Do you even have a secondary education? Licenses are written in a fairly simple language, without reference to the laws of certain countries.
Therefore, there is nothing complicated in them.
0) Depends on the license of your project.
1) School, wikipedia, etc.?
2) Qt is the best open source for C++ for most applications.
You better ask a specific question ("Is it possible to do XXX with Qt?") and you will be answered.
