Do You Spokening English?

[mrpink]

speak straight english if you can, straight tagalog if you cant do well in english

imo ... if you want to learn but you can't speak straight english ... you should still try to speak it ... it's only when you practice speaking will you be able to speak correctly ... you'll get to figure out which correct nouns to use .. which correct verbs to use ... it will improve your sentence construction and grammar ... and it will improve your confidence that you're able to communicate your ideas in english ... you'll only sound stupid if you're trying to impress ...

I just recalled something:

When i used to live in Canada - they read Z as "Zed" not "Zee"....its freakin annoying when they say zed.....

300 zed x (300zx)
350 zed (350z)

they'd spell out zero as zed-e-r-o.......

.....one of the weird and funny thing about Canadians....oppsssss....what am i talking about.....im a dual citizen (actually, i have 3 citizenships, LOL)

One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo Theory
to his buddy Norm. Here's how it went:


"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this...

A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo.

And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones

at the back that are killed first. This natural

selection is good for the herd

as a whole, because the general speed and

health of the whole group

keeps improving by the regular killing of the

weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can

only operate as fast as the

slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of

alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells.

But naturally, it attacks the slowest and

weakest brain cells first.

In this way, regular consumption of beer

eliminates the weaker brain cells,

making the brain a faster and more efficient

machine.

That's why you always feel smarter after a

few beers."

Sometimes I have to think first and translate in my mind of what Im about to say before speaking in english, but the good thing about canadians is that they dont seem to mind if you do make mistakes and get tougue-tied once in a while.

i remember what my english teacher used to say:

if you're speaking in English, think in English.

Kung magsasalita ka ng tagalog, mag-isip ka sa tagalog. this way, the processes involved are lessened. you don't translate on the fly..
