~~So what’s where correct? And what else to consider at your (English speaking) place?

Consider:

  • I want that.
  • I want this, too.
  • I want the same.

I’m asking this (and that) since I participated a discussion with only native speakers and it crushed me. Apparently I am the worst English speaker anywhere.

Teach me things, Lemmy. Pleeaase!

Post scriptum: You may prepend your comment with a common, international country code to don’t fuck with me too hard.~~

I am struggling to participate in conversations held in English. Simple choices of words like such named are making me insecure. Which may contribute to the issue that other people have trouble understanding me. I am already trying to keep my sentences short and consume media mainly in English.

Additionally I hoped that countries with English as a second language could provide me with hints to simplify my spoken English.

I learned UK - English back in school; But this has nothing to do with real Englishmen speaking.

Current comments prompt me to revisit the basics of the language. Another task hard to put into daily life.

    Thank you for your time taking a glance. Tend to correct every written sentence multiple times. I am struggling to participate in conversations; But the top reply shows that my expression skills are underwhelming.
