First notebook entry: Introducing myself
I am specking SPEAKING An Arabic language [ARABIC], I would like to talk English as will WELL as GAIN[?] fluancy FLUENCY.
My attempt:
I speak Arabic and I would like to speak English, eventually fluently.
Notes:
-"I am speaking" would mean you are speaking it at this very moment. It is the continuous present form. Meanwhile, the simple present form is I speak and is how we normally say that we know a language. It implies habitual, normal action.
-You can simply say I speak Arabic unless you are emphasizing that you speak a language from the Arabic branch/family of languages. This is a more linguistic sense.
-"I would like to talk English" does not sound natural, as we would normally say speak English. You could say, for example, I would like to talk to you in English or I would like to talk in English instead of Spanish.
-You need a verb with the word "fluency". You could say attain fluency, gain fluency, achieve fluency, or speak fluently. Once you gain fluency, you can say I am fluent in English or I speak English fluently.
Good luck with your journey in learning English. Listen to music and videos, talk with native speakers, ask questions, and don't give up! A few word will turn into a hundred words, then a thousand, and you will become fluent :)
