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.

be concise. your writing is very...esoteric. it seems like youre trying to write very formally, but just over-complicating things.

english is very relaxed, and rules often have many counter-examples.
it seems to be a yes/no versus interrogative thing.

i think when verbs (lifted) act on a singular noun (june), you use the article (a).
if junepei was picking flowers, you would say:
junpei picked a flower OR junpei picked flowers
BUT, this just seems to be an indefinite article rule:
junpei picked the flower AND junpei picked the flowers
are both acceptible
definite articles do not seem to be affected.
also, john ate hot dogs and john ate the hot dogs both make perfect sense.
