I was taught phonetic transcrption in primary school, so when I memorize a new word, I know its standard pronunciation.
I've been used to memorizing new words by their phonetic transcription and their pronunciation.
When I learn Portuguese on busuu and duolingo, it's hard for me to master Portuguese words because they don't have phonetic transcription! And I don't know its pronunciation rules :(
My two difficulties learning the english
Two main difficulties are in my way. The first is my pronunciation. Of the two of them, this is my main difficulty. I watch TV series and I listen music, but I need more practice with my pronunciation. I have a partner Irvin from China, but we just get together on weekends.
The other problem is understanding what is spoken. I watch children's shows, like Pepa Pig, and I can see how phrases and sentences are built. The problem is again the practice and memorization and how to apply what I know during the day and when I talk with my partner. I forget many things.
I will try to write more on italki.
