[@wilma.espiritucrowley]

For non-native English speaker like me, the main reason why it's difficult to understand native English speakers is because we have little to no practice of conversational english. Our learning is mostly thru classroom lectures and reading. And conversational english feels like a totally different dimension. And also, you're not alone in terms of zoning out lol. My brain also does that to me when the information it receives are overwhelming.

[@TheRealTalk213]

I can't agree for more to your opinion. Sometimes I also dont get the jokes specially if a person use unfamiliar words. Whats funny is they be laughing and I would just pretend to be laughing as well even though I dont understand anything.

[@josefranciscosanchescamach4233]

It's so great to listen to someone who speaks English as you do. I wish I had all the resources we do nowadays. When I lived in the US 30 years ago, there was not the internet. In order to learn a new word, I had to ask someone who knew that word to help me with the pronunciation. I was really lucky because I met some helpful people at work. But they weren't available whenever I needed them. Thanks so much for the amazing job you do helping so many people in improving their English. I hope that all the benefits you are giving to us life compensates you. Thanks, Stefanie.

[@haha-eg8fj]

Haha. You need to learn more slangs. She rarely use slangs here but you will almost always hear slangs in movies.

[@fantennis457]

@@haha-eg8fj I feel it's mostly the fact that actors in movies often mumble and drop every unstressed syllable, whereas Stefanie doesn't do that, she enounces everything she says, as an anchorwoman would do. Assuming you actually know the words and (at least most of) the idioms that are being used, if you weren't exposed to real life conversation long enough, you'll still have a hard time at understanding. Nowadays movies are not theatrical, they are realistic. In real life you often say the same things in the same phrasing over and over again, so you naturally shorten it whenever it's possible to save time and effort, to the point when you don't actually say a thing, it's just a mumbling sound. But since your relatives / friends / neighbours / colleagues are used to that, they recognize that sound as something they're familiar with, and associate it to the real sentence. That's why they understand and we (foreigners) don't. This is true for every language and in every country, I guess.
