Unreal Engine

I’ve already learned C++ (including concepts like DSA and OOP), and now I want to start learning Unreal Engine. My main doubt is: how different is the C++ I’ve learned from the C++ used in Unreal Engine? Specifically, I’m wondering if the syntax and keywords are the same, or if Unreal has its own version of C++ that I need to learn separately. In other words, can I directly apply the C++ I already know inside Unreal, or should I relearn C++ specifically for Unreal Engine? Iam really confused right now!!!!! 😕
