It's hard not because English is hard but because in school they teach us differently than is in reality

[@InteractiveEng]

Thanks for commenting & sharing with us. 😊

[@DialloAlphaishaga]

You have to do both

[@Ichfurmich-ry7sj]

Thank you, Professor. You are very patient and explain things in detail and with examples. For those of us who are not native speakers, it is a great help. Thank you again.

[@InteractiveEng]

Glad to hear that! Thanks for your comment. 👍

[@abadalrhmazkoo922]

Speaking 🗣️ like yours, is too difficult, but the most important thing is to understand the native American English speakers. Your presentation is really understood! Teacher Wes, thank you so much for this wonderful video!

[@MuhammadUsman-xx2ef]

Hey Wes, You have been creating awesome content and have been quite rational. I have been following you for a while and guess what, I am from Pakistan and have been working for a U.S based company as an IT Professional where I have to talk to my manager and have to collaborate with the native English speakers. They usually ask me for how long I have been living or lived in the English country because they tell me that I usually speak as fluently as they do and the way I use Idioms in my routine communication. This is all because of you and another quite popular YT channel named "Learn English with TV Series". Thanks for producing such great content.

[@InteractiveEng]

I'm really glad to hear that! Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@Heartland29]

I think it’s more of assimilation has got to do with understanding. I’m Filipino American although I speak several foreign languages, I’m used to listening fast speech the American way. How they pronounce and some of it has been short cut. My American mother in law, pronounce the word “ have “ to half. I understand what she meant the way the sentence is constructed.

[@gabrieladentino2321]

Hola Wes,eres un profesor increíble.Eres de Estados Unidos. Me pregunto porqué cuando hablás en tu idioma yo te entiendo en un 80 % más o menos. Y en un filme o canción no todo.A veces abrevian tanto,su estilo según quien sea. Creo que para hablar en forma nativa es practicar constantemente y tener a alguien nativo para hacerlo.Y / o vivir allá. Y no todos pronuncian igual dentro de lo ya abreviado. Sos un genio,y te entiendo cuando te escucho.No soy avanzada.Gracias,gracias y gracias.From Argentina.😊😊😊

Thanks for commenting. The questions would have a slightly different meaning. If you want to be friends you would say, "Can we be friends?" Using 'get along' would refer to your ability to be friends and work together. 👍
