learning to speak English...easier said then done!

Have you ever realized how many native English speakers have trouble with grammar and pronunciation...think about it! So why do most Americans frown upon "those" who don't speak proper English, when we ourselves don't speak it correctly either??


I was caught in the oddest situation last week. I can barely speak a complete sentence in Spanish but I found myself having to communicate with a person who could barely speak English. Oddly enough, we both had the patience to try to understand eachother. We had a nice little chat about a stray dog who had 6 puppies in her backyard...I think that is what we were talking about anyway. I have really got to learn to not only understand Spanish but also speak Spanish better.
