Then, however, I've learned there's much more to it than just "sounding" like a native speaker... I've come across lots of speakers that would sound closest to a native but were not fluent in the language. In other words, it was a struggle for them to put their thoughts into words and/or to engage in different communicative events.<br />Overall, I think that using a language is just like wearing clothes, we should know what to wear on different occasions. We should adjust the kind of language we use to the situation or the person we're talking with in order not to get ourselves misunderstood.<br />What are your thoughts on this?<br />Best,<br />Bruno<br />Brazil<br />PS.: The girl is tired, so she wants to "lie" down.

Why don't you just learn the professional English from the beginning? <br /><br />Major, Taiwan耐心https://www.blogger.com/profile/05721059259120179036noreply@blogger.com
