English is confusing me
I am Chinese and I have been learning English since I was Seven. After 20 years been learning English, I realized there is big different gap of english expression between Chinese and native English speaker when I came to Australia for continuing my university. Sometimes I even cannot understand their question and sometimes they cannot understand me either, they told me they didn't use that word in this situation and the way I speak out is not correct. I am so upset and lost, I have no idea how to change my old fashion English to integrate in local English.

Aha.... Thanks Kafka, I can tell your English is pretty good already.The best way for us to touch real English is more practice, even thought there is no good English environment, we still can create one, just like reading English book, website, watching English movie or series, listening English radio and talk to yourself, that is really helpful. Anyway, thanks again for your cheer up. Have a nice day!

I have the same problem. And what is more, that is the common (and global :)) problem of learning foreign languages. Any languge is a living and developing organism. A book that have described a languge just a year ago today can appear useless. So don't be upset. You have a greate opportunity to "touch" a real english. Personaly I feel envy ;))
