How to speak English fluently ? ( I am an Indonesian)?

Question

I want to speak English fluently...just like I speak Indonesian... Tell me how... should I go to America or England....??

Answer 1

Either place is fine. But practice, practice , practice!!

Answer 2

Well, you're doing a fine job typing in English, so I'm assuming you already know a lot of English. I live in Canada, and I think you should consider coming here. We're like America except more multi-cultural. Any of those options would be fine if you're just interested in speaking English though. You should look into a few English countries and see if you find anything out about them that you are interested in (besides just the language).

Answer 3

America

Answer 4

I would recommend you go to England. The British respect their language (to a cirtain degree) I dont know about the Australians though.

Anyway Im African (Botswana) but i was raised in England. Since my country is a former colony of the British most things done in my country follow the British system especially the education and thats the English i have been taught.

Im living in America now and I have a hard time understanding the way the Americans talk and write. The British language in my opinion is more direct and refind and interesting to listen to. The American english isnt bad but it feels different somehow and confusing also its less formal and slightly slangy.

But anyway the secret to learning english (or any language) is to expose yourself to as much of it as possible. I recommend you expose yourself to British media and english speakers where possible like the BBC radio and programming.

If you want to learn a refined and proper form of English with adroit grammer and vernacular I would expose myself to BRITISH English.
If you want to learn a more dynamic and less rigid form of English then I would go American.

For someone who says they dont know english well you seem to know enough to be able to write a good question without any problems,,,,GOOD LUCK

Answer 5

This depends on who your target listeners will be. The difference between English English and American English isn't that great. having said that there are a few words which will trip you up as they mean different things to each culture.
On balance I would choose England - the birth place of the language. You will get a better grounding in using the mother tongue on which the American nation has derived their own version.

Answer 6

if u want 2 speak right English than go to England and if u want 2 speak incorrect fluent English than go 2 America .

Answer 7

first of all it's How to speak English fluently? What I recommend is practice practice and more practice. try speaking English with friends that speak fluently.

Answer 8

that depends. is there a reason behind wanting to learn english? Either way going to england or america there are slang terms and slang words that you might find confusion, plus england english is a bit different from amercian english

Answer 9

It really doesn't matter. Simply speak frequently and constantly in English with other English-speaking people, and read as much as you can in English, and you'll become more and more fluent. Fluency in English varies, anyway; there are certainly innumerable non-native English-speakers who are more fluent than many, if not most, native English-speakers in either country you've named. I should think that you could become fluent without visiting either one, although it would certainly speed up the process.

Answer 10

if you want to speak English fluently....... go through the lots of English Cd's and listen their pronunciation by using headset and practice(talk) more with your friends and colleagues with out fluctuations... then you will get success.

Answer 11

The best place to learn a foreign language is between the sheets! (o.k. o.k., or in a household)

England or the U.S. is your preference. A lot to weigh in the options there. The town you end up in could make all the difference.
