Your written English is quite good, far better than a lot of English first langauge speakers i see posting here. At least you are trying to produce proper sentences and grammar.

Try finding some Emglish penpals, heres some websites to start you off:

http://www.penpalparty.com/country/England_penpals.html
http://www.giveusahome.co.uk/fun/penpals.htm

Also you might want to try creating an account on www.myspace.co.uk

.. as you will find a lot more people with similiar interests.

Lastly try looking for English speakers who want to learn Chinese, its a fair swap then and also you will helping someone to learn your language, a worthwile experience.

As to speaking in English, don't be nervous. If you do get the chance and get it worng, ask how to say it correctly. Also try learning the accent too, often you may be saying it correctly but the accent makes it sound different. Whats called an RP accent is probably (in my opinion) best, its the home counties middle upper class accent as it will probably serve you best with getting jobs and being generally understood by most people.

Many English speakers form different countries (UK,US, Australia etc) have problems understanding each other all the time because of different accents. Within the UK itself there are many accents and someone from Cornwall may not understand easily all the words spoken by someone from say Scotland or Cumbria.

edit: The use of "deadly" not "dearly" looks like a typo that the spell checked would not have picked up rather than a mistake on the part of the user, because its a correctly spelled english word. D and R are next to each other.

I am wondering why you posted the same question twice. As for your use of the word 'deadly' I am not too bothered about that as it just shows that you need to work on your English. I know that foreigners often use very strange expressions.

well i am not a guy, but i will say that your sentence construction is a lot better then some of the English speaking people. So, be proud of yourself and don't be afraid to talk.

you may just have one or two words which are not correctly used, though I am certain that most people will understand what you are trying to say, e.g you could say , "I really want to....", or even "I dearly want to....".

Good Luck , and don't rule women out to help you , as it is in our nature to nurture. keep smiling.

In church, we pass a set plate, it really is an providing. human beings are envisioned to positioned income it to assist fund the church and that's ministries. i'd guess that through calling it a correction plate, they're relating how the church is continually telling human beings they're making blunders? each and every each and every now and then, if someone wears 2 earings, that ought to point they're gay. yet a lot of adult men have 2 earings merely because they prefer it, so it quite is only a stereotype.

Um, if you keep using the word 'deadly' when referring to friends rather than 'dearly'.... You're either going to be very lonely, or you're going to make a lot of weird friends:)

I think the word"deadly" will put people off. I think you mean desperately. If you're looking for a gay man,you have to say so
