Happy to meet someone like you who is an English enthusiast...I, too would like to master this language. I am with you when you said that it takes time and pain to learn it...There are so many rules that should remember when formulating a sentence..There are strict patterns to follow but ther are also a lot of exception to the rules...I know you can grasp what I'm refferring to here...
Hmmm...I'd like to master the verb tenses especially the perfect tenses and their passive form...When I am speaking I really don't know when to shift, what tenses should I should I use..That's really my problem...Conditioanals also, I can't grasp the the difference of unreal past, future contionals to the other conditioanals, hmmm something like that...including the subjective mood...hmmm also the modals, I find difficult it cause don't know when should I use them in a sentence....
I'd love to hear your ideas about them on how you learn them...
Thank you very much for your continued reply...
mayumee...
I'm not really a teacher or an editor or a writer, although sometimes I do teach and write English. I'm just a 'fan of English'. Now that English language is thought to be a global lauguage, it makes sense to take time and pain to learn and master it, doesn't it?
BTW (by the way) or incidentally, what aspects of English grammar you think are hard to learn? How about 'verb tenses', 'prepositions', 'the articles' (a/an,the), 'modal verbs', and the like?
Thanks for your comment. I was really flattered so much. In fact, I really think your English is good. But I did see some errors in your comment - most of them are just simple typos (spelling mistakes). We all make mistakes when writing or speaking, even native English speakers. So, don't fear to make mistakes. When I'm aware of something wrong or improper in my writing, I usually consult an online dictionary for the right usage. Since I always try to write something grammatically correct, I try my best to read more grammar books or other material in English. Even so, I know I still make mistakes when writing. But, when I reread my writing, I usually can spot the mistakes or something inappropriate easily. I'd say it really takes time and effort to learn a foreign language - including learning grammar or writing/speaking skills. Grammar might be the answer if you really want to improve your English skills.
As for speaking, it's also true don't be afraid of mistakes when speaking English. More practice is needed. The more you speak, the more confident you may feel. It's useful to listen more. You can listen to English radio broadcast. I prefer to listen to the BBC or VOA, and to watch the BBC or CNN TV programs. Just turn the radio/TV on, even though you might be busy doing something else.
Hope it helps. Good luck!
