To know or not to know, a dilemma when I watch TV
To listen in English and accustom my hearing, I watch TV in English, with subtitles, of course. My conclusion is: the different accents are a problem, one big problem. When I hear Mr Mario Draghi, (President of European Central Bank), he speaks about economy, but, I can understand him. Well! I know English. I am very happy. All is good. If I can understand Mr Mario Draghi when he speaking English that mean I know a little English, All right?
After, I watched different series on TV, the first series I tried to watch was Futurama, one animation series about the future and funny aliens. This series is difficult for me, I thought, better I must watch a series for a children. Well, this is not a problem, I can watch series for children. I put on TV "sesamo street".. and my surprise is: I can't understand nothing. The fear come. At the last, I decide watch "Peppa pig" a series for children about 3 years old... more fair, I do not understand anything... but I remember, why Do I understand to Mario Draghi.
My conclusion is , Mario Dragui is Italian and learned English in an academy of English, as me. Yes! this is! All schools English worldwide, teach the same language, but is not English. It is the language of the English academies.
This is the reason, I am not learn English, I learn the language of the English School, but is not English... or it is a problem with accents
