lost lostthis story reported in the Times The Guardian may be true because I suppose that Kumiko has lost her mind becauseshe had problem in her life,someone gave her a lot of dispair,of problem that he has taken the wrong train and she has not able of realizing that the train was going to another direction probably someone had
made her some violence some sexsual abuses,or someone has given some big broblem in her life that she make her take the wrong direction.Everyday the life of men and women is narrow and there are huge or small problems that peole wants to forget and this life makes people crazy,life is complicated,is not easy,people have a lot of problems,there are a lot of violence today everyday features ,tv tells aboume from t a lot of bad facts.When I used to go to England when I was a teenager because of studyings holidydayes in EAstburne ,Brodstairs near the beach resort of Torqay which are also seaside resort as it and they found themselves in the South -west and they can be reached with a train froM London I was taken there from the two family wich took me from London to these city.
When I went to schoolo in these place I wa frighened to find the prper way to find the school,or the way home because sometimes I found in other direction for the pronunction of the slang but I think that I was found the direction thanks to holidaymakers, to real English

[elizabeth]

The fact reported about Kukiko might be true because in life a person can take the wrong train due to the misprounced the spelling some words can be difficult to understand because of the language . A foreign people can have the problem with it ,this is complicated is made of lots of derivations of people who settled a nation English to understand and the gap of the Language is even more. The pronounce for example I am studying in the course is not easy I think in a country you must pay attention of it

[elizabeth]

I think to go from Torquay to London in a hortest way is to use the train and it can two hours 2.57.There is a train from London to Paddington and arrive to Torquay.
The service Leaves two times a day. The railway station is Western one and the South.
1)Can we eat fish and chips on the seaside?
2)Is Torquay called an English Riviera?
3)Can you take a swimsuit to swim if you go to summer vacation to it?
4)Can you go shopping in Torquay?
5)Which poets are native of this country?Is there a literature that speak about it?

I SOMETIMES HAVE PROBLEM WITH THE COMPRENSION OF THE PRONOUNCE AT SCHOOL IN ENGLISH OF SOME WORDS IN ENGLISH,BECAUSE THEY ARE QUITE SIMILAR SOMETIMES IT'S TAFF TO UNERSTSND IT BECAUSE THERE ARE SONG SIMILARS. DICTATIONS ARE SOMETIMES A BIT COPLICATED AND REDONE THEM EVERY DAY AND TO LISTEN TO MUSIC AND TO WATCH BBC TO EXERCISE A LOT TO IMPROVE A LANGUAGE

Hi Elisabeth, yes it's true, some words are difficult to pronounce in english. There are many words that look similar but are pronounced differently etc. ASnother good exercise to improve your pronunciation: all the listening exercises in the Netlanguages courses have a script. Listen to the audio and read the script at the same time - that will help you.
See you,

There is a difference between English and American in proununciation and English words are not not the same in American there are for example chips in English,and frech fries in American English and the slang in England for example in London in the suburbs it's one from the ones used in Scotland and in Wales,and the one used in American.

[elizabeth]

American proununce and the world are more opened and in English ones are more closed.

[elizabeth]

When we go to Enlgland the prounonuce is difference due to the history,due to the settlement for example French domination,in facts some words comes from French languages,and comes from Germany.
English was also dominated by Latins after the milky way of Rome,Italians,Vickings,Normans,Spain.

[elizabeth]

American was discovered by Critopher Columbus in1492 and the Mayflour in 1620 which from Plymouth settled in the USA which gives Birth to Puritanism and the problem with the crop of potatoes which gave hunger and diseases.

[elizabeth]

Literature is full of words coming from the settelment of the populations ,battles of world of religions.

[elizabeth]

I usually travel in economy class to LIvigno in new train made by the region and I found no possible to loose the direction and to take the train to Tirano and the coaches to Bormio and arrive in Livigno at 17.15.So I think it is sometimes quite difficult to loose the mind and take the wrong direction KUMIKO had to ask in the journey she had if she were in the good directions to tourists to travellers while she was going to Turquey she had to ask if was going in this country of different Language of different population of different language

[elizabeth]

Turquey is far from london and Reading and Kumiko had to ask if she in the right direction and pay attention but I think it is difficult for a Chinese understand the gap of the Language and to understand the position of geopgraphy often languages are a bit complicated the wire of the pronunce of a Language the rool of phonetics is complicated and the ruls of proununCe are hard to undestand sometimes even more of grammatic,of history.

[ELIZABETH]

A Language is complicated to understand for the millions of rules a Language has English has irrergular verbs,and it's full of signs of mots proununce in different ways.
