@tonyp6631 Місяць тому

@hugogalciusphysics yeah but "where do we start" was the only words that were technically English. The rest was undoubtedly alcoholic gibberish crossed with bird chirps. As someone who frequents bars, I have an ear for it.

As a native speaker, do you understand Brad Pitt in "the Snatch" movie?

@tonyp6631 Місяць тому

Bradd Pitt doesn't understand bradd pitt's character in snatch. I know it's technically language, but I think it only applies to squirrels from when the romans used messenger squirrels. It's a dead language

@dimanimatedtakes Місяць тому

0:46 - 0:55 What is that clip from? It sounds like something I would say and I'd like to reference/meme that LOL. "Why have I chosen to study Russian?" is also a mood, but for me it's a little bit different. My situation is I'm fluent conversationally, except I'm a heritage speaker so I make mistakes (and hate when I do / get embarrassed when Native speakers correct me, even though I'm very thankful for their corrections) and I learned while growing up in household while living in the US and also learning English from comprehensible input (TV, radio, etc, and it just came naturally) and I still basically "study" it every day organically/naturally, but I consider English my native language and I always struggle and switch to English with natives speakers of Russian who also know English. I've taken courses too to improve my knowledge, but I still am not super confident in my abilities. Any advice?

@ianai7903 Місяць тому

You can start with shadowing for better pronunciation, watch a minute of video, write what you heard, check if you wrote correctly and try to repeat many times until you can speak as the person in the video. Choose a random picture and describe it out loud, using simple words and structures at the beginning Just say in english what are you doing, like: I'm reading a book, I bought it 3 weeks ago, I find it interesting I'm going to wash some apples for me and my family, we all love this fruit We're listening to music, I missed this song, it reminds me of my childhood Something like that)

I’m a native English speaker and to me she sounds like someone that moved to America as a child - not native but extremely close Also, her accent in English isn’t a Russian accent - I doubt most Americans could correctly guess where she’s from
