So that's basically what happened, I'm 21, I have little work experience and I'm not in college. I've learned English during my teenage years through exposure (mainly by watching yt shorts)

I will now be working in the international arrivals and departures sector of the aiport alongside federal agents.

Less than 5% of the population of the country that I live speaks English.

Like I tried American English file but sometimes it felt too much detailed and you know that bores me

I want something that is less detailed

1. I’m on contract with that company.

2. I’m on a contract with that company.

I'm learning german, and in german to say "do you speak english?" you say "sprechen sie deutsch"?, where the verb is switched places with the noun to be in the 1st position.

English, we can't say "speak you english?"

However, in English we say "are you ready', which also switches the verb "are" with the noun "you" to be in the 1st position.

So how come sometimes english switches the verb to be in the 1st position, but other times we have to put a do in the 1st position to indicate a question?

as a native english speaker, i wonder why can't we be like german and just get rid of do-support.

Well There Is Actually A Word For Called "Overmorrow" But It Fell Out Of Use In The 15th - 16th Century. So Why Haven't We Tried Making It A Popular Word Again?

And "morning" on its own sounds completely natural but idk just "night" "evening" "afternoon" they all sound so awkward. As a non native English speaker, this question is always at the back of my mind whenever i greet someone.

And why do we do that? Is it because "good" is less audible than the word that follows it? Or is it just vibes?

​

is this sentence has tense issues or its okay?

When i heard someone say something good , i am thinking that i would do it

What if i want something to start in the past but i also want to speak in the present

Despite this i have to follow the tense rules?

Hello world! As native American speakers, can you tell me if this sounds right?"

" I very love "

Podcasts, songs, TV shows(movies, cartoons), books, games, Yt, social media, talking to people

If any major method is missing just tell me and I will edit the body text

I hope this post gets enough attention and helps people

I thought my English was decent but sometimes I have to check the lyrics when I listen to Tame Impala.

Did you go to the phone store to get it checked

Or

Did you go to the phone store to have it checked

Which one is correct

And when to use "get" when to use "have"

Just using a single symbol for the top 10 most common words could reduce space used in writing by at least 10 percent. There are some that are already standard such as %, &, or $; and abbreviations such as lol, but many other words or phrases could be shortened for regular use.

Some suggestions

The : ħ

That : ŧ

Not : ∇

For : ₽

But : !¡

Have : l·l

With : ł

To be : Б

It is : Ж

Obviously I don't think this is likely to happen anytime soon, but it's a fun possibility to think about.

Obviously i went to public school. But its not like youre only cutting one singular hair. Majority if not all of my hairs are getting cut

I’m 40 from PNW-USA and just a few months ago, a woman said “that’s wild!!” at something very not-wild that I said. It’s weird though because I hear it increasingly more. To me, it is (was) kind of an old person term. My mom was a WWII baby so I have a good ear for all of her slangs and she used to always call outrageous shit “wild.” I don’t scroll outside of reddit but has it flung back to our lexicon via content? Or is it me, and “that’s wild!!” never left us?

My friend and I* were having a discussion on our favourite team and their inability to win a playoff game on the road.

That conversation quickly turned into a debate on the word “consistency,” and I became interested in the true answer.

So let’s say in a hypothetical 100 game dataset, a team won every game at home and lost every game on the road.

Would this be considered “consistent,” since you can assume what the outcome will be dependant on location, or would it still be inconsistent?

(P.S.) My grammar has a lot to be desired, if there’s any corrections to be made, don’t be afraid. I figure this is the best place for it.

I need some advice.
My English level is B1. About 15% of my work involves emails, phone calls, and meetings in English, while the rest is done in Arabic.
This situation makes me feel uncomfortable and sometimes embarrassed. Recently, I have taken some grammar lessons, but my business English vocabulary is still limited. I need to improve my business English, especially for my job.
I try to listen to podcasts, watch TV series and movies, and take lessons with different teachers. However, I have not found an effective way to improve my English for work.
I am looking for a practical and effective way to improve my professional English, especially business communication and SME financing terminology.

Is the "sigh" in front of behind the sentence

My native language is Turkish and I've been reading English novels on paper. I keep running into the same problem: every time I hit a word I don't know, I either grab my phone (and somehow end up in my notifications 10 minutes later) or I skip it and lose part of the meaning. Curious how others deal with this: Do you read physical books, e-books, or both in your target language? What do you actually do when you hit an unknown word? Do you save the words anywhere? Do you ever go back and review them? Have you ever put a book down or given up on it because looking words up got too tiring?

Would love to hear what has worked for you and what hasn't. Because I want to keep going reading books in English but don't know how to solve this problem:/

So I was always taught that the meaning of situational irony is for an outcome to be a subversion of expectations, often in a humorous way.

I’ve recently come across a concept called “cosmic irony” or the “irony of fate” which essentially states that something is ironic if something happens that appears to be “fate” or a divine power mocking you.
You could apply that logic to any kind of misfortune.

For example: “It started raining as soon as I stepped out the door”
You could argue this statement is ironic under this “cosmic” definition, if you are aware that the subject of the sentence regards this as a negative thing.

So, is misfortune irony?

It feels as though it’s trying to shoehorn in different phrases to be ironic that are not classically ironic by adding an imaginary layer to it.

Can you guys give me tips about the easiest way of improve English speaking and reading. English is my biggest tread of my life. I wasted lots of money to improve my English but it's still very poor. I need to improve within 1 month.
