My problem with languages Hello readers I'm 29 and I have been studying English and French till I was 18. After more than 6 years studying french I just can read some little paragraphs, say a few words or order something in a bistro, but ever have a full conversation. Maybe my problem with French was my lack of interest on it (my apologies) Perhaps my problem with English language is a little bit different. When I was 15 I could listen and understand whatever I hear or read. Nowadays I have many troubles listening people talking, songs, films...I can't understand what I listening to! I mean, if I'm watching a TV show or a film, first of all I put it on OVS, but it takes me a few minutes to understand what are they talking about without reading the subtitles. When I'm listening music, Queen for example, I have to be focused on what Freddy is saying and I can't get all the words. I think I need to train my brain to be on alert, so I would like to skype with different people with different accents to get my brain used to all kinds of English. Thank you all for reading this.
