RE: Wednesday walk challenge: A walk to the Cathedral
Hello, @janton! Yes, on schools is taught the English language, from Elementary to University. My English is not si good, at least at conversational level. I need to practice my pronunciation 😅
Howdy again vickaboleyn! oh really? about your English? I mean I thought it was pretty darn good! If you get stuck you just use Google Translator or something similar? I like your English! Do you have other family members that you can practice with?
I can understand what I'm reading, but sometimes, when I write on English, I consult an English - Spanish dictionary or consult Google Translator. I use the latter one only for looking a word that could fit on a sentence.
Howdy again vickaboleyn! Oh I understand, or entender or comprender. lol. So you do not have family members to practice with?
I have a family member to practice with, but I prefer to practice with a native speaker. Sometimes, or at least I've noticed it long time ago, in the school the pronunciation is not corrected. When you practice with someone who is not a native speaker, he or she rarely detect you a mistake on it. But if you practice it with a native, he or she will point out with no doubt.
It happened to me some weeks ago on a reunion on the English Library, and I'm grateful with that because it means that I need to work more on it.
howdy again today vickaboleyn! I understand, it takes alot of time and practice. Does it help to write? Like these comments in English, does that help? I think you are doing very well!
Yes, they help me a lot! And thank you for your kind words. I hope to work more on enveloping my skills ☺️
Howdy tonight vickaboleyn! I'm glad they help. Here is a help..you said "enveloping my skills" but the word enveloping should have been "Developing" my skills. Enveloping means to enclose something. But it was very close and since there is only one letter missing it was clear what you meant. Or maybe you meant to type developing and just made an typo.
At any rate, I think you are doing fine!
Oh, my! I haven't seen that. Thank you so much for your correction!
And I'm practicing with a co-worker from the little schools where I work for.
