Mylot Is Improving My English

@pgiblett Exactly my friend. It would be waste of learning if a person doesn't know the proper usage of the words or phrases.

@Shavkat I would also confirm them before using them as there are some phrases that are misused.

Yes using the expressions you have learnt is the best way to understand their correct usage.

Yes you can. May I give you a pointer. in your last sentence "You can earn while you are learn also." please note that "as well" is preferred to "also" at the end.

@Karjivkaran,Yes,that's exactly what I try to do here.Here in Mylot we use English practically.This gives us a better understanding of this foreign language.

@pgiblett Tons of thanks for adding to my knowledge,my friend.Yes,there I should have used 'as well' in place of 'also.'Thanks again.

@pgiblett,Thanks.You are right.I should also know how and where to use these words and expressions.For this,I refer the Collins-Coubuild dictionary to know the context they are used in.

@pgiblett @Jessicalynnt,who is a native English speaker,says that they use these phrases and words without thinking about them anymore.Is it possible?I am surprised to know that even native English speakers commit mistakes.How is it possible?

@pgiblett Now I can understand why my English teacher had once said to me that I may learn English very well,but can never have the same authority over the language as someone whose mother tongue is English.You may sometimes have confusion over the pronunciation,meaning or use of words,but you talk fluently in English.This is something we can't do.We have to think before speaking a sentence.I had once met an American tourist who told me that the way I pronounce the word 'rice' is wrong.He also tried to teach me how to pronounce it,but I could not follow.

@AbbyGreenhill,Thanks.I want to use the time I invest here in this site in the best possible manner.I learn new words and expression here and then refer the Collins-Coubild dictionary to know the right context they are used in.

@else34 You have a good goal and you are doing a great job on, keep it up!

@AbbyGreenhill Yes,I'll go on with it.Mylot is the only site that provides me a conductive atmosphere to express myself in English.I'll not let the opportunity go.

@gudheart I agree.Mylot improves our writing style also.

@gudheart,English is your mother tongue.If Mylot improves your knowledge of English,then it can easily be understood how useful this site is for us whose mother tongue is not English.

@else34 Very true. :) I have never been that good at writing so it has helped me :D

@rina,Thanks a lot.I am sure,this site must have been very useful for you in improving your knowledge of English and your writing skills in this language.This site helps us to earn while we learn.

@salonga,And this is perhaps the greatest benefit we get from Mylot.Here we learn what we can't learn in schools and colleges.I highly appreciate your quest for knowledge.Keep up the good job.

@maezee,Thanks,my friend.'Worn to a frazzle' means making someone extremely tired and nervous.'You may learn about the phrase from the internet.

@sjvg1976,You are absolutely right,my friend.And if you read with open eyes and an open mind,it works wonders.I am sure you must have experienced this.

@else34 That is great.

@LeaPea2417,Yes,Mylot is a unique site and a very useful at that.It has added a lot to my knowledge of the language.

@Jessicalynnt,I must thank you for it is from your posts that I learned many new words and expressions.I t read your posts attentively and know the meanings of new words and expressions from online dictionary.Thereafter I refer Collins Coubuild dictionary to know what context these words are used in.English is your mother tongue,my friend.You can play with English words.But we, who are not native speakers of English, have to be very careful while writing in English.

@Jessicalynnt Perhaps we all do exactly the same with our mother tongues.Here in India we mostly use slang while talking in Hindi.I have a friend from France.He has learned Hindi,but sometimes he fails to make out what we are saying.But how can I ask you?To me,whatever you have written is right,grammatically correct.How can I know if you have written something that doesn't make sense.

@else34 yeah, and we throw slang all over the place and dont even think about it. feel free to ask me if I write something that doesnt make sense

@Shiva49 You are right,Sir.Those whose mother tongue is not English commit mistakes.That's why I prefer visiting posts by users who are native English speakers.

@Shiva49,You are absolutely right,Sir.I don't have a conductive atmosphere to speak in English.Here we use our mother tongue Hindi everywhere.I still commit some grammatical mistakes.For example,in using 'too' in place of 'also.'

@else34 I think most are not perfect especially those whose mother tongue is not English. What mistakes I make are mostly those I am unaware of - siva

@krosscrime,Thanks.I,too,hope so.I have been trying everything to improve my knowledge of this foreign language.

@makaujackson,Thanks.Mylot has been a very useful site for me.
