This thread is for the people who used English as their second language. Please rate your English skills from one to ten. Ten is the highest and one is the lowest. How good are you in written and in oral.

I can rate myself in written as 7, and oral as 5. Honestly I'm having a hard time talking in English, because I'm quite disturb about my grammar.. lol I can speak english but not that good, maybe because I'm not used talking in English. How about you guyz?

Same about me,7 in written and 5 or 6 when it comes to oral speech. It's great to take your time expressing your feelings in written but one doesn't really have time for that when talking lol That was an inconvenient joke:)))

hello there ana thanks for the reply!
well as i have said they are not used talking in english that's why they having a hard time talking. my friend told me that if you want to boost your english especially in talking, always read a book, not just reading, read it out loud, so that your tongue will be used in talking in english. thats it. have a great day ahead!:)

I know,I used to read in mother tongue before but now I only read in English. That's the only way you get to enjoy the style of your favorite authors to the extreme plus that helps to improve writing skills. Speaking is a bit different,though cause not so many people use sophisticated words in day-to-day life

7 or 8 both in oral and written...grammar,that's the most important thing you have to consider in speaking and writing English...I can speak English well because I'm already used to it...Me and my friends used to converse in english most of the time.


myLot reputation of 92/100. xxjinx8xx (909)   ranked 36 out of 2,134 in enjoy life  3 months ago

hi there bestie thanks for the reply, yeah your right, maybe it's our mistake that we're not using english in our daily life. what i mean is we're not talking straight english, we just use it when we need it. by the fact that we have english subject, we're using english in our reports in school as well as in the office, but still some us is not good into it. we must practice talking in english now so that we will be used to it.. have a great day!


myLot reputation of 92/100. bestie (537)   ranked 151 out of 2,134 in enjoy life  3 months ago

your welcome!...oh no...don't consider it as a mistake,as long as you know how to speak and understand it,it's not a problem.


myLot reputation of 92/100. xxjinx8xx (909)   ranked 36 out of 2,134 in enjoy life  3 months ago

ok thanks again!
have a nice day!:)

ok english is my second language but i write it alot so i think im pretty good in it. i loved doing grammar in school when i had an english class.. i even wrote a poem once for my teacher for christmas and she said she tried to correct it but she didnt find any errors. so i'd give myself a 9 in writing.. as for the oral probably a 7.
And if english is your second language, what is your first language?
mine is french


myLot reputation of 92/100. xxjinx8xx (909)   ranked 36 out of 2,134 in enjoy life  3 months ago

English is actually our main language here as all the teachers in school teaches in english.. For me, i will rate my written at around 5-6 only as i dun really care about writting the right sentence as long as i can get the message thru to the other party.. LOL
For oral, i will rate it at 7-8, because i can speak fairly well and can understand as well^_^ haha


myLot reputation of 92/100. xxjinx8xx (909)   ranked 36 out of 2,134 in enjoy life  3 months ago

i thought you speak chinese hehehe.. yeah i agree as long as they can understand what you're saying..:p


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2165)   ranked 196 out of 2,134 in enjoy life  3 months ago

haha.. Yup, even though our main language is english, but majority of our ple speaks chinese, including me.. LOL
