For people with English as a second language, what do you think?

[Westbrook]

French was the only choice in school? We started with Spanish as the only foreign language class around age 11, then in high school we got to choose between the other main Euro languages.

Reading is very easy, but listening is a little bit harder and i have problem with "could" word i can't use it. English is the easiest language to learn, i've never learned it in the school, my all english knowledge came from internet In school we learn french, sorry but i hate this language

ps.: i have no problem with french peoples

Speaking. I try to teach myself how to speak like Black Americans, but it's easy when you don't live in a Black American neighborhood.

[Argentano]

pronunciation by far

[Thracian]

Speaking, I think.

Speaking with non-native speakers is quite simple. They can understand you easily if you don't have really heavy accent. On the other hand, speaking with native speakers is little bit difficult. You have to use correct words with excellent pronunciation and grammar. Also, British, American and Australian accents are quite different than each others. In the beginning, I was spelling my last name when they ask for me, they couldn't even understand Z (I was using British one like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ehrR6j_D4E).

Listening because at school we aren't taught everyday spoken language.

[Aldaris]

Understanding certain local variants of the language - due to regional vocabulary and idioms aswell as different accents. The standard form for me is American English.

I struggled with every aspect of it. But moving to Australia for university I was working hard on reading and writing to get good scores in university and it took a while but lost abit (alot) of Greek in the process over past 13 years living here. Some things in English language just doesnt come naturally.

Understanding speech >>>>> Pronunciation of this sound: think > Speaking

Writing is easy, reading is no problem at all.
