I get really ticked off when I hear that. If you want to live in America fine, become a citizen and speak the language. Speak you other language at home.

I was wondering. Im currently studying Japanese right now and I wondered if I should learn how to read Hiranga and Katakana while learning how to speak it, or if I should just learn how to speak the language first then learn how to read it.

Your views on Gerunds and participles?

They can be Gerunds in English or any other language?

Just curious if anyone does that, or can I start a trend maybe?! It sounds cool to me. FYI, I'm a dork so maybe it's OK for me to say it.

(I was trying to tease someone in my German class who studies all the time.)

Or "swot" maybe, if you have a better word for that.

Hello! I'm Brazillian and I'm currently studying English. All I know is by myself, it shows you how much I admire the native language of yours. What about mine? Have you ever heard to someone speaking Brazillian Portuguese? How does it sound to you? Is it resembling to some other language that you've also heard?

I wonder I could some day talk to a british person, just like friends, and get to know things about you there, our differences and resemblances... would some of you share your MSN with me? Mine is medeirosdez@yahoo.com.br That'd be great we to talk on MSN by voice!

Tell me first what you think about my language!

I've been taking Spanish formally for a year but have been speaking it for a few years and would love to get more practice in. There is a large population of Hispanic, native speakers where I live. The thing is, I am afraid that they will laugh at me and/or be offended if I walk into a deli and ask for "un sandwich con pollo y queso," being a white person. I am also afraid to chat with other native speakers; a lot of them follow the hip-hop/ghetto lifestyle and I'm not sure if they like white people! So, native speakers, help me out. Would it be okay with you for a white person to practice Spanish? Or should gringos be gringos?

I'm from Japan and studying in the US now.
While I was doing my assignments, I found the following expression;

"Be there, or be square."

What does this mean? Is this a figurative way to describe something? I can't imagine a person being a square (shape). This sounds really weird.
Could you tell me what this expression means?
Thank you for your help!

Do you have the tendency to correct somebody's pronunciation or phrase usage if that person you're talking to has an accent that's not from English speaking countries (like Britain, US, Canada etc) even though he or she might be fluent in English?

For example, if you are an American, you would probably understand it when a British says "rubbish" (as oppose to trash) but would you correct him/her by saying, "Oh, you mean trash?"? Are you more likely to correct that person if he/she is from a non Western country, say India or China?

I guess this is more about communication between peers or coworkers rather than client or managers because it would be inappropriate to do so for the latter. But I am just curious if native English speakers would unintentionally assume that non native speakers are not as good in the command of the language, thus, more likely to correct them despite their fluency in English.
