Difficulties to listening skills
I have improved my reading and writting skills, and I can understand so many things that I read. However, when I hear something in english it sounds like I don't know anything about the language. I feel I must improve my listening skills because I want can watch American movies without subtitles but i know this is so hard and requires discipline besides listening over and over again.

Difficulties with listening
I have improved my reading and writing skills and I can understand so many things that I read. However, when I hear something in english I feel like I don't know anything about the language. I feel like I must improve my listening skills because I want to watch American movies without subtitles, but I know this is very hard and requires discipline. You have to listen over and over again.

This really depends on the kinds of movies you are watching. Like Craig implied, you watch crap, you listen to crap. See if you can watch this movie and understand it.

It depends on what you're trying to listen to. You could talk to me and you'd be fine, but if you watch a UK film like, "Snatch" you'd be getting a lot of slang, with accents, and mixed in noises. Don't feel bad about it, if I said "the bookies has been blagged, I think Dave done it, I'd put a monkey on it" how are you going to know what it means? Bookies = betting shop, blagged = robbed, monkey = err I can't remember hahaha I think it's £100.00 (I just found out that a monkey is £500.00 Here is a good site with some money slang on it) http://www.aldertons.com/money.htm
