I found it easier to learn Spanish (not my native tongue) by continuously having Spanish language radio and TV on in the background.  Even if I did not understand individual words, the rhythm and sounds of the language became familiar.\n\nLook for recordings of songs and poems - especially children's songs - again what you need is exposure to sounds and rhythms.\n\nThink about how babies learn language - they don't study books, they rely on repetition.\n\nIt sounds silly, but it works - and I don't mind taking baby steps - I couldn't have serious conversations at first, but slowly the skills build - and I still remember how to sing nursery rhymes years later.\n\nHave fun with it - and remember people in England speak differently than people in New York, which is different than English spoken in Texas or English spoken in New Zealand.

I'm extremely surprised by that too, and English is not even my native language. I don't know who's to blame for that, I guess that  everything you mentioned has an influence, but in my opinion the main reason for incorrect spelling is that people don't read as much as they should and therefore they don't get used to the correct forms of the written words.

To offer some background, I really suck at talking. I can not formulate the correct words in my head before I say them. That means that I can't always say what I mean, and mean what I say. Bad combo. I'd like to think that I'm good at writing though. I collected a lot of what I know from reading difficult to understand books like Hamlet or other Victorian age books. Learning different lingos will boost the vocabulary and aid in the ability to select better speech or words. Hope I've not talked your ear off about something that didn't help!

You are studying English? Too funny. If you improve greatly, maybe you could teach it or work for a publisher of books or magazines. You might be able to get a job as an editor. But you need much more hard work and study before you are ready for any of that.

There are people from all over the world here.  Not all of them speak or type English that well.  Please pay attention to the question and not the typing.  Also there are people who do speak and type English but are a little on the lazy side.  Its easy to tell them apart.  Just move to the questions you understand and have fun.

I'd start by learning the english language and how to write it. That way, maybe someone could understand your question.\n\nIf you use proper spelling, learn how to structure a sentence, then maybe you'll get an answer to your question!

It sounds like your english isn't all that bad.  You might want to get a really good english dictionary to help you with your spelling and grammar.  You can also get instruction audio tapes to help.  The best way, however is to surround yourself with people whose first language is english.  You may be able to locate english immersion schools in you home town.\nAt one point, I had tried to learn Cantonese and found that being with my friends from Hong Kong, as much as possible helped me to learn faster than tapes, etc..\nGood luck

There are many ways. You can read english books, magazines, newspapers etc. You can learn phonemes to improve your pronounciaton. There are even many online websites. To find them go to google and type ESL.

Check out an ESL class in your area. A good starting point is the United Way they can refer you to a class. They fund a great deal of literacy. My mother teaches ESL (English as a second language) in Houston and she volunteers her time to teach. I don't think there is a charge for most of these classes anywhere. Good luck to you on learning. PS you can also do some online.
