I realize that America is the land of the diverse. Many people come to America equipped with another language other then English. But if you can speak both your native tongue and English, when in public, why do you speak in your tongue? Honestly? Is it just easier and faster, or do you just not want the Americans knowing what you are saying?

I know English. I can understand it pretty well, since a little girl I have taken English as my second language. My problem is speaking it. I speak my native language all the time with people and don't really use it to have a normal conversation with people. I can understand it and write it pretty well, but when suddenly I have to speak in English, like on the phone for example I get tongue tied.

I don't know if this has to do with shyness, afraid of not saying right, or not being accustomed to speak in English all the time, but I would like to improve it since I am planning to go to the U.S in the future and I want to fit in with no problems.

Is there a creative way to improve the way I speak in English. I don't have time nor money to spend money on a class. My college offers one, but one class isn't enough for me to learn.

English is my foreign language and I thought I had learned it well, but lately I'm not so sure anymore.

More and more I hear:

- between you and I
instead of "between you and me"

- thanks for the present you gave my wife and I
instead of "gave my wife and me"


It almost looks that someone went out with he and she instead of him and her!

Help please! I hear it on TV, my boss is starting to use it, and everybody seems to think they are speaking proper english. Am I nuts?

I have noticed this phenomenon when watching the 'peoples court' TV programme, and occasionally when a black person gets interviewed on TV

I was shocked to hear that a friend of my learnt that at her english school today... it sounds so silly/stupid to me!

But then I wonder, perhaps people say it that way somewhere?

Se equivocó la paloma.
Se equivocaba.
Por ir al norte, fue al sur.
Creyó que el trigo era agua.
Se equivocaba.
Creyó que el mar era el cielo;
que la noche, la mañana.
Se equivocaba.

Que las estrellas, rocío,
que la calor, la nevada.
Se equivocaba.
Que tu falda era tu blusa;
que tu corazón, su casa.
Se equivocaba.
Ella se durmió en la orilla.
Tú en la cumbre de una rama

Also - If you know of any other good poems by Rafael Alberti that are short (8-15 line), tell me.
