Most people will still take the time to try and figure out what you are asking. I understand what you wrote and it was put together quite well considering that English isn't your first language. The best advise is to make sure that you read it a couple of time before uploading to make sure that you have caught any mistakes. We all leave out words and misspell things so don't let that worry you. I have heard that people have said that mylot is helping them with their English, and typing skills. Hope its a great place for you too. Welcome to mylot and I wish you much success.

I can understand your English. Just keep on practicing so that you can't forget the language. You can read a book, or watch a movie in English once a week so you can still practice it.

I don't see anything wrong with your use of the english language. Its great that there are people from all over the world here and I know not everyone is good with this language so I try real hard to figure out what the person is saying. I am getting pretty good at it too. Just try your best. Thats all you can do. If anyone says bad things to you because of it, then just ignore them. Good luck.

Yes. You write very well for someone who does not use the language very much. There are a lot of people on here who do not speak English as a native language. I admire all of you who make the effort to communicate. Only through talking to each other will we ever be able to understand one another.

Yes I can understand you better than most people for whom english is a second language (that would include me :) There are a few mistakes but they can be easily corrected. Send me a message if you're having a difficulty on composing something and I'd gladly help you. I'm here everyday so you're guaranteed to have on-time response.

I'm not a grammarian or an english teacher, but you write your thoughts clearly. Really not bad for someone who don't use it oftentimes. Keep it up.

Yes. Not only me, I think everybody who sees your discussion will clearly understand what you want to say! Your english is pretty good and grammatically correct to a large extent! Just read more english magazine, books, newspaers and journals to add on to your vocabulary!
