wanna write in english
23.05.05 06:34
Собственно, сабж. Английский никогда не изучал. Постепенно запомнились несколько слов и основы грамматики, для чтения почти хватает. Но хотелось бы заняться им поактивнее, тем более что в профессии без него никуда.
Может быть, найдётся педагогичный и терпеливый "наставник", или скорее виртуальный собеседник для лёгкой, ни к чему не обязывающей переписки? Писать в стол и говорить в стенку - глупо и бесполезно. Обещаю быть прилежным и внимательным учеником и слушателем.

Well, here I am. Again. Thank you for being so quick to answer my modest request.
I'm a little ashamed of myself right now, exactly of a lot of following faults that probably will seem terrible to you. But try to be merciful with me. I'm just learning :)
Actually, I'm studing for a natural science. Nothing with languages. It's my daydream, to can write and speak english more or less freely and understandable.
What about you? How did you have the idea of opening this group, of all groups?

Well, I▓d say you are a way too modest. 
I cannot evaluate your speaking abilities but you can definitely write freely and understandable.
There are a couple of mistakes, really minor ones. For example, in this context it▓s better to say ⌠mistakes■ instead of ⌠faults■. And certainly ⌠to be able to write and speak■ instead of ⌠to can■.
What about me? The idea of the forum came by itself. I am really fond of English, more than of any other language I speak. So I thought it would be nice to have some people around who share my hobby

I studied English a while ago but now it's more like hobby. Besides, I often need it for my work. Actually I have a lot of opportunities to practice it but when there are discussions about the language you always learn something new, even if you think you know everything (like it happens on the German language forum).

Seriously, i'm sorry about my silence: i have haved (?) much to do in the last days.
It's a strange situation for me, to communicate on-line with a dictionary on my desktop. Yesterday, i was speaking live with a fellow from Texas. Hi's born in Austin but his roots are in Bangladesh. It's pretty funny to listen him.
I stop writing. Right now, I'm quite drunken and awfull tired.

I'm studying English but I'd forgotten almost everything by the time I restartet my studying at the university. I can't say that I have many oportunities for speaking English but I try to use the each one. I watch English films only with English subtitles, I read a lot. But besides my studying I bring up my two daughters and it makes everything a little complicated. Sorry, I must finish right now.

May I ask you something: do you live in Germany? You have to, otherwise you wouldn't have written "drunken" instead of "drunk". We are so used to saying "betrunken" that we don't notice the mixture of the languages anymore... Recently in an English-speaking company people thought I was German since I couldn't help saying "und" instead of "and"

Is English your major at the university or just one of the courses? And I have a methodological question : at some point I noticed that when I was watching movies with subtitles I didn't really listen to what people say but just waited for written words. So I gave it up in order to learn to listen. Don't you have this problem?

Yes, i really do. Actually, I know that you say "drunk", not "drunken". However, I must have been too drunk for recall this. But you're right: often, the German adlles me totally when i'm trying to speak English (not only me, I think), particularly it addles the structure of phrases and let me misplace wrong prepositions. I think, first I should unlearn German (and then Russian).
This time i'm so awfully awake, perhaps because I had a lot of beautifull dreams. But there is a lot of work to do. I wish you a glorious weekend.

You know, your English is really good, I don't know why you were so modest in the beginning.
And the words you use are quite sophisticated. I'd say too sophisticated for the conversational English. For example, addle. It is totally all right but I am sure I've never heard it from a native speaker. BTW, I've just looked up in Google and there are 60 "addles me" in comparison with 172000 "confuses me". The same with "unlearn German"┘ I personally would say "forget German".
Anyway, I am not a native-speaker, let's say we are practicing synonyms

BBC is also not bad and it brings visible results
As to the spelling, I guess the only way to improve it is to read and write more. I didn't have this problem since I learned to read and write first and started communicating later. I have to admit, when I came to the US for the first time I couldn't understand a word for two weeks
But if you want that others don't notice your problem with spelilng you could just use spellcheck

Yes write and read is a good idea. Spellchecker, word and other stuff are also not bad but it▓s not what I▓m looking for. I think time will solve this problem. You are also right -American English is something very special and it gets even worth if you move to the Southern States. I mean not only grammar and different words also pronunciation. From the other side not impossible.

Don▓t worry about this. Of cause we learn language in order to communicate with other people, but as soon as you get in English speaking environment you will be surprise by yourself how quick it starts to work. My point of view is good basic knowledge before you start to talk to others.

I don't want to write English I would rather speak English instead. The great problem of this group is that we all aren't native English/American etc. Therefore, we all make mistakes and if one says something wasn▓t right the author will maybe feel offence or say it was right etc. And how should we decide who is to blame? Per voting? That is the great problem and it shows that we couldn't improve our abilities this way. I think much more effective were to speak/write about how could we improve our skills or maintain our level if we are professionals yet . Leisure and English (see above) is a very well subject I think. I would
suggest a bit more: "How to improve English in Germany if we have just a little time?" What about that?

IMHO, we can discuss any topics here - music, books, films, whatever! We do it in English and that's the difference to the other forums related to music/films/etc. So, my ideas are:
- books read, films seen,
- favourite music(ians),
- travel,
- English grammar (if anyone would like to discuss a particular topic / ask a question),

That's my favorite one
All other topics are welcome too, of course

Hi overthere ,
There is not about Grammar, but it▓s also interested for me. What would you say if somebody in order to say good bay will say ⌠Take care■. What do you think is the most suitable answer? This expression isn▓t new, but I never thought about possible reply. My version was ⌠Thanks, you too!■. ⌠ I always do■ sounds good as well, but it was very official talk , so I couldn▓t use that.
So, what do you think?
P.S. I personally haven▓t got any problem if someone corrects me either my grammar or spelling.
Good luck and take care of cause!

It's not quite about grammar but it's about language usage and equally fascinating.
I think the expression ⌠take care■ is really like saying ⌠good bye■, not more. So I wouldn▓t answer ⌠thanks■ or ⌠I always do■.
Imho, ⌠you too■ is the best answer. I personally wouldn't be reluctant to use it in any situation.
btw, it's interesting for me or I'm interested in it

I also think "You too" is a very good answer.
BTW, that's another favourite topic of mine:
- language usage.

Thank you very much to all or you! 
Of cause I▓m interested in and it▓s interesting for me- my mistake.
I don▓t see any reason not to use this and other expressions. It▓s modern English either we like it or not. I was also shocked by the first time in English speaking country people used ⌠How are you?■ and ⌠Are you ok?■ more for saying Hello. But you are right everybody choose his/her own way of speaking. Scientists say that our way of speaking shows our level of education and our potential for the future development.
So take care everyone!!!

Hi! Very good answer is "Bye!"... However, I really don't get what is it here? Do you have so much time to speak about nothing? I did really hope here we could exchange our experiences how to improve English faster and easier┘ I don▓t think we can help each other another way here. The discussions in this group (all topics) are not much more demanding as that I found in another group, here you are, ⌠Чем отличается прыгать от скакать? Я обьяснила так: скакать - это прыгать в высоту, часто и коротко (не слишком высоко)⌠.
I don▓t think the knowledge of the deep difference between ⌠прыгать⌠ and ⌠скакать■ helps us really to speak Russian fluently: either we FEEL the difference or we are not fluent in Russian. And English or any other language is the same thing. Either you feel the language or you are not fluent. To know something theoretically is not enough and is often even badly because you have to translate if you want to speak/understand. But you want to speak/understand instead!
I▓m sorry for that hard words but don't we want to improve our discussion and make it more┘ rational┘?

Hi,
Do you know what▓s special about any Internet forum? You can▓t make people discuss what you (or I) think they should discuss. The last thing I would do is to limit the discussion to one topic only.
Your question ⌠how to improve English faster and easier■ is really important but what do you expect? For most people, to learn a language is hard work, and it takes time. If you could just start and give examples of how it possible to make it faster and easier, perhaps others could follow.
And I do think that the difference between ⌠прыгать⌠ and ⌠скакать■ can help one speak Russian better. And I do think that it is important to be confident that if you hear ⌠take care■ you answer the right thing. I do feel intuitively many nuances in the English language now, but when I started learning it, it was exactly the discussion of those nuances that helped me to become fluent in English.
You might have a different opinion but different opinions can coexist in the same forum. One does not exclude the other

Airet,
Brilliant!
What I would like to add is that it's much easier to criticise than start a new topic which would be interesiting, "rational" and so on... Isn't it?
Could you please tell me how you imagine this? Thanks!
