To me it does look sunburnt but the question would be was it outside getting direct sun in window or outside? If so I would say yes. If not then it may be a fungus or over water. (?) I’m not much help but those are my thoughts.

Thank you so much! 😊

Cut off the burnt leaves and move the plant somewhere else where there is highlight, but no direct sunlight. About 1-5 feet from a window
