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'm afraid most non-native English speakers visiting 4chan's text boards are too far into their studies to be interested contributing to a thread like this, hence all the shitposting it attracts.

I'll do a serious post because of the enthusiasm displayed by OP.

Education in my country is good, but as a kid I always felt my comprehension of English was horrible compared to those around me. After console games started becoming more text heavy and required reading to progress, it didn't take too long before I'd "mastered" the language.

I usually don't like to describe myself as fluent because I find things are seriously lacking in the pronunciation department. Not quite sure how to go about fixing that without going abroad and living in an English-speaking country, would anyone happen to have a good web resource for pronunciation training?
