Hi everyone! I’ve been thinking about how we learn English. Some people find reading and listening easier than speaking and writing, or the other way around. I’m curious about your experience. Are your reading and listening skills...

Toni @annierose The problem with learning Mandarin is that it's tonal. So it's not just the pronunciation but the tone which changes the meaning of your word or sentence as your tone changes. Not the same with French. That's why I never learned Thai language...

Toni @annierose I don't really remember how it felt. Just like any ordinary test. Wasn't nervous at all. Guess because I was really confident.

Kayla Tsukino @annierose Yes, they do. I knew when I first moved here mine was thick and strong. The first place I called home after I got here tried to "train" it out of me. by "correcting" my speach. They failed.

Jimlos Tatooth @annierose Hang on. I am at the level that all native English speakers should be at , surely. I was this proficient when I was 10 years old. If I didn't know what something meant I went and found out.

Jimlos Tatooth @annierose It won't improve. Those who took away parental controls at the end of the 80,s are to blame. A slap on the backside never did kids of the 60,s and 70,s any harm And we were respectful to parents and teachers alike I mean , a.parent in our...

Jimlos Tatooth @annierose It's not just that. Pupils don't show teachers the same respect we did. There are no sanctions or punishments in place for bad behaviour. Pupils are violent towards teachers, verbally abusive, etc etc Disruptive to other pupils. The whole...

Kayla Tsukino @annierose I can understand that. I didn't realize I still had my suthern acient until someone asked me if I was from Georgia. I've been once, but I've never lived there.

I was thinking about my MyLot routine and got curious. What time of day do you usually do your MyLotting? For me, I usually do it in the morning right after I wash the dishes. It feels like my little “me time” before starting the...

Loretta @annierose It is, but lately, I am so tired by the time I get on, it's hard to stay for a bit. I think I'll do a little in the mornings and at night so I can keep caught up. I hope you had a great day.

We all get tired sometimes, both physically and mentally. I believe taking small breaks is important. How do you usually take care of your energy? Any simple habits you’d like to share?

Indah Fetha Andri Ariyanti @annierose simple habits really are the easiest to stick with, especially on chaotic days. For me, when energy is really low, the most helpful one is giving myself permission to slow down without guilt. Even a short pause, deep breathing, stretching for a...

I am so fortunate that I don't suffer from either of these, but I know it's a real thing, and I've seen it in various friends and one of my family members. So many seem to suffer from one or both of these conditions. Earlier...

Marie Coyle @annierose Oh dear. That’s not ideal, either. I really hope and pray your Mom will try to come and visit you again. Maybe gently remind her that hey, she did it, she flew by herself and she can do it again! Sometimes, encouragement helps a lot.
