  1. Yes I experienced that, but the only difference is I use to fake the accent at times, when I moved from India to UK, I was young and started talking like others, however, sometimes, I use to do it deliberately just for fun, or to look cool. Then I returned back to India and went to the States after four years, there I did not fake the accent, I was myself. I guess the change of accent only happens when one has lived in the country over nine to ten years or more I believe.

  2. The use of who and whom has been pretty confusing for me as well. Back in the day I made mistakes all the time in the usage of these words. Through the time and experience, I have learned the techniques of English Grammar and now I am confident about using perfect grammar.

  3. I think Homophones are funny words because they can cause someone to stumble while writing. I use to make mistakes with homophones, with time and experience I learned that consciously I have to be aware of these common words that sound the same but spell differently!

  4. Hello Cutler4life, it is a great huge post about learning spoken English, your effort for sure is counted. Well, I learn my spoken English by listening. For me this language has been ringing in my ears ever since I was a young girl of 5 years. We had many missionaries visit us all the time and hence there presence helped me to learn Spoken English. I think one of the biggest tip in learning any language is 'Listening', this tip works wonders for many, in fact I teach English to Indians here and they learn it while they hear me talk....

  5. I am from India and excited to be part of this forum since I love languages. I am basically here to learn various languages if I could especially Spanish and French and additionally, I can share some knowledge of my mother tongue which is Hindi and Marathi. Looking forward to many interactions and exciting discussions ahead.

  6. I personally love languages, being Indian, I already know Hindi, Marathi and English. I had English as my first language at school and then I had the opportunity to travel UK and U.S.A, so it made my English much stronger. After three languages, I have a desire to learn Spanish and French. I am planning to re-locate to Canada and I guess some parts of Canada require one to have some knowledge of French so that will be my next bit.....
