English Thread

In this thread, we attempt to learn to read, write, and speak English, a language which would be very useful to know. It is widely spoken throughout the world.

Do you speak English? Are you fluent? What resources did you use to learn? Can you give some examples in this thread? Posts some useful links.

Let's help each other out and learn a new language.

I've never seen anyone abbreviate "something" as "sth". I googled it, and it seems the main people who use it are English teachers... haha. http://voices.yahoo.com/what-sth-stands-why-represents-7335556.html

This only works when the "too" is there ("it's obvious of who can't tell" sounds very wrong to me, and I imagine most other people as well). "Too obvious a troll" sounds correct as well, but it sounds more formal than the version with "of". I don't know if that helps as to why we do it, but that's how it is.
