Find it difficult to choose a discussion to respond!

I have the flip side of this my friend as some days I find it hard to understand exactly what a member is asking. So what I do if I truly feel I can be helpful is always start my response with; If I understand what you asking - see this way they know that I tried. I do have days where I am too tired and perhaps unable to read a very long discussion so rather then commenting any rubbish on my behalf I will move on to something simpler. So you are not alone.

You are right! Most of the discussion topics in myLot are very difficult to be interpreted correctly. And this happens in common with the people whose mother tongue is other than English. Sometimes, there is some complexity in expressions that makes it more difficult, though the language used is easy. The complexity of the topics also depends upon the knowledge, interest and personality of the reader. One should choose those topics to which he/she can give response in a more clear and comprehensible way. So, the way you select topics for giving response to, is the best for you. Enjoy myLotting!

I do feel the same especially the conversation is already using difficult terms of English then I just feel like I am out of it!lol I think most discussion that's difficult for me is the political view.

It was the same case with me.. I was not so good in English and had find it difficult to respond to discussion or create a new one.. But then I started to check only those discussions that are started under the topics which are in my interests.. by doing this I get more of it that I know something about and that I like to read and comment on...also try to identify friends who share the same interest and respond to their discussions... GOOD LUCK

This happens to me, too. Sometimes I find so difficult to express my thoughts in English! In such cases I choose to skip the discussion and search for another one who permit me to express myself easily. I set a goal for this month: each day I choose such a difficult discussion and I try to respond, even if it will take longer to write a satisfying response. This way I think I can improve my English skills and I hope I can express myself with more ease after this experiment.

Woo so many people responded and belong to your group girl,i think it's a commom problem for any non-english speaker.I could only read and respond to a few discussions one day since I need more than ten minutes to read and translate and type to respond to one disscussion.Let's move forward together.

Yes, I too often experienced the same thing as you. I often struggle to find a discussion that I would have responded. I do not find the right responses, and discussions are made about something I did not understand. I also more often chose a simple discussion, such as about everyday life.

Yes sometimes it is really difficult to find any discussions for responding. I think sometimes when we don't find any good discussion then we think which discussion is good or bad. I have also faced this situation with me. Because I always try to give minimum 50 posting daily. But when I not find any discussion then sometime I take help of search bar of mylot.

Hi dear, You please read the entire topic and after reading you will get an approximate idea about the subject. Once you understand the matter, you can prepare your own response in simple English. I have advised some short cut methods to learn English in the earlier discussions. However, start learning the basic lesion and it will help you to improve. Regards, Thank-s

haha sometimes I feel the same way..there were days were I just dont know how to answer all the discussion here..lol but thats ok..its better not to answer than to give a wrong information or to give a bad feeling for giving an answer which is not even conncected to the topic.. So dont worry and CHEers to that your not alone:)

It is really indeed hard for someone to respond most especially if it is not your part of interest or if you are having a hard time to express your thoughts in english.

yes it is difficult to participate some discussions but if you are participating continuously throughout months it will be very easy because you can simultaneously improve your language and knowledge. mylot is the best place to enhance your language and knowledge so best wishes

I have the same problem as you sometimes too! I have to find simple discussions to respond to because others require too much reading or .. just hard to answer and I cannot relate to.

I'm sure that all myLotter have the same experience. Sometimes, you're full of ideas, sometimes your mind is blank.

Hi friend, good day! I know your situation. Maybe you can try learning some english first? I know it's hard but as it gets along, you'll get the hang of it. Don't worry :)

hello, Well,usually i do respond to topics that i can relate with. It is really hard to respond to topics that you hardly understand,and you will end up messing with the real essence of that discussion. Well,i can say that,you can start with simple topics and later you will get used to replying and you will noticed that,your English will improved. This site will help you with your English skills,i assure you that. Have a great weekend,enjoy mylotting always

Hi, There are plenty of discussions in MyLot and you can simply choose the one that you find easier to respond and you really have the idea on how to write. For me, I love to go for those topics of my interest. I will use the seaching tool to look for the topic that I want. DIfferent mylotters will post different kind of questions and I just need to pick some that I really feel good in responding it.

Same same, generally I want to answer the questions that my friends posted discuss, but some time its difficult to understand, it will take long time to read and to think, because my english is bad too, usually ten minutes over one discussion, the problem is not only this, when I finish the reading I find myself don't kwon the answer is what. it is too professional for me, maybe friends come around all over the world and have different job occupation. make me as a frog at a well bottom, I just have a small area of heaven. Ah!

ohhh, I'm having the same problem as well because I'm not an English-speaker. Sometimes I feel complicated to express some of my feelings in English and it takes quite a lot of time for me to respond just a few discussions. That's why I'm choosing some simple discussions as well.
