You know that I believe you are good in English cos I saw the way you encoded this discussion. You will speak or write the proper English. By watching English movies, drama, news etc. Or taking with the Americans, Australians, England, Filipinos, Canadians and New Zealanders; they are good in English. Taking is good communication but there are some English wizards always making fun of the grammar of other people. The checkers of the English, it is good to check people in class but not in gossiping to others. You know even some Americans are not good in grammar they said, I know cos they are practiced the things which they learn from home since young. Grammar is perfection but nobodies perfect as long as you communicate. but when you have time learn the grammar for good. Basic conversation is the most important next the grammar it self. I spoke some other language but they are happy to me even I spoke one word, phrase or simple greetings and sentences they are happy to me. When I spoke to American when I was teen they are happily listening on my words but other fellow citizens they are making fun of my English. I forgave them and they makes me like them learn English and now I'm happy I overcame it now I spoke English not perfect but comprehensibly good said by the listeners. And I so glad. Have a nice day.
