I like that they are trying to speak my language. It doesn't matter to me if they are fluent on it really. As long as they try.
-
Chrome has a feature where in you can click to translate the website to your desired language. And that's what I do when I don't understand the site I land on. I love Google for that.
-
It is quite possible to learn a new language with music. It doesn't have to be understood right away but eventually, you would. I would love to try this to myself as well.
-
It is fun! And it will broaden your mind and it will make you more intrigued on learning more. I love learning a new language, that's from the heart.
-
I'm still having a hard time learning Tagalog. But I would bet that it's going to be more hard to speak another dialect. I will definitely check that out though.
-
It depends on the language. And it also depends on the level of interest the person has to learn it. These are crucial matters.
-
This depends on the individual I believe. Some people can learn fast with groups involved because they can interact with each other. Others choose it 1 on 1. I do love a group session though.
-
If it's a new language I'm just starting to learn, I definitely find it hard to write the language. Speaking is easy because I could easily mimic it. It's the writing and the technicalities involved with it that's hard.
-
This is so far going on successful these days. Koreans and other asian countries are learning through this now! I can see why it's helping because it's totally convenient now with skype!
-
Not really. I accept myself for who I am and if they don't like the way I talk, then that's actually their problem. Not mine.
-
English is my first language so I learned it when I was starting to speak. I didn't talk immediately though when I was a kid my mom even thought I was deaf because I was silent. But eventually, I learned and spoke.
-
I am so guilty of this. I mean, is there anyone these days who text without using it? Sometimes I even add that even when I didn't really laughed out loud. LOL (Okay I think I just did it.)
-
For a moment yes. I recently had this trip to the Philippines. And it's embarrassing because I don't speak Tagalog. So when the people around me talk, I just drink my beer. LOL
-
Oh I am so guilty of this! I speak my native tongue fluently but there are pointers in grammar that I am actually not aware. And yes, I kind of am bad when it comes to spelling. LOL
-
English is my language so definitely not. But I could just imagine the pain of memorizing the ones in Chinese! Or Egyptian. I am intrigued to learn though.
-
I wish Google would actually update Google Translate because it's super not accurate! I'd rather go for the dictionary or some other translating site if I want to translate something. It's funny how some words turn out there though.
-
For me, as long as the message can be stated and understood I couldn't care less about the grammar. I'm not really one of those grammar nazis. We convey to be understood and not be judged on how bad our speech is.
-
Non-fiction for me have always been appealing than fiction story. Why? Because this is the real deal. Like you can learn real facts and apply it to your life on a daily basis. I love non-fiction so much that I keep a handful of them in my mini library.
-
If you seek wisdom and good motivation to live, try to look for the book Master Key System. I forgot who the author is but it's a really good one. You will learn the methods of martial arts and how you can apply that in everyday living.
-
I say stay away from Twilight that's for sure. LOL But if you seek wisdom and depth in life, I say go for CS Lewis. All his books are gold.
-
I always use my first language which is English whenever I communicate to people. It's hard to communicate still using other languages that I have learned. This is so far proven effective to me.
-
Unfortunately no. But I would love to be. I think it's going to be easier to learn when I have that. This is a good suggestion.

This is so true! I even catch myself quoting memes most of the time. They are pretty funny. But you have to admit some can be really full of wisdom too!
