Expressing myself in English is hard
I don't have much confidence in my English skills, especially in my writing and speaking skills, despite the fact that English is my first foreign language. Expressing myself in English is very difficult and unnatural for me. It always feels as if my pronunciation of English words and sounds is very weird. It's hard to pronounce sounds like "th" as in "third" and "r" as in "writing". Combining words with "th" and words with "z"/"s"-sounds in one sentence knots my tongue: "That's the first zero in this progression of digits."
On the other hand, depending on the matter, it's not very hard to read English texts for me. I read lots of programming related books. So my vocabulary related to that theme is pretty decent. But then again, there are lots of very common and easy words which I don't know or which I cannot recall when I need them.
Probably I just have to practice speaking and writing English a lot more. And this one is my first attempt.

Theme is the central idea or message that a writer wants to convey.
Wie man manche Wörter auf Deutsch ausspricht, ist auch eine Herausforderung für mich. Die Kombination von "pf", zum Beispiel, ist immer noch ein Zungenbrecher oder eigentlich ein Lippenbrecher. :-) Wenn mein Deutsch so gut wie dein Englisch wäre, würde ich im siebten Himmel sein. Weiter so!
