About Speaking Speed! Hi. I'm a japanese man so I speak japanese fluently. You also speak your native language fluently, don't you? That is obvious. I study English now, I feel like the speed spoken by English speaker is very fast. I practice speaking English smoothly because I want to talk with foreigner but in fact I can't. I have a few confidence about listening English but I can't speak English like you are talking even if there is the sentence what you talk before my eyes. I have a question against people learning Japanese. Do you feel like the speed spoken by Japanese speaker is fast? First of all I will practice pronuntiation of R and L.
