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.

Saying "go to take" or "go to do" sounds awkward, but I'm not capable of explaining why. Like, if I were talking to my friend, and I wanted to ask him out for lunch, I'd say "do you wanna go eat", not "do you wanna go to eat". I tried looking for an explanation of this online, but I couldn't find any.

If I had to explain it, "go to" + v sounds more like you are going to go somewhere and then do something, while "go" + v sounds more fluid, like it isn't necessarily a sequence. But this is just my general impression of things, and it might not be correct.
