    Hello Again!

    in Introduce Yourself

    Posted

    I felt that I need to introduce myself again because I haven't posted in or visited the forums for almost a year. It's work, work, WORK!

    Visual Novels I read: Not much Clannad, Tomoyo After Story, A Profile. And yes, it's because of my job. The load became lighter so I now have some time. It's also because I'm keeping up with some series in the US I really like and watched animes I missed. I plan to read Little Busters because I've already watched the anime. Fate/stay night comes after that to understand why my friend gets so worked up every time she hears a topic about the VN come up.

     

    Have a nice day/evening, everyone! 

    Looking For Not Difficult English Used In Game

    in Recommendations

    Posted

    Just in case you're not reading VNs but still practicing English, try watching sitcoms.. Sitcoms contain a lot of idioms that are really necessary when learning English..

    You need to stay away from action driven shows (CSI, The Walking Dead, or comedies heavy with slapstick). It's because if you turn down the volume and just watch the movements of the actors, you still get to have an idea where the story is going. Like who was the killer or how this artifact saved the day. It's not the case for sitcoms though, you turn down the volume and you just see them talking so your brain has to spend some time understanding what's going on and of course, you end up not understanding the humor. There are a lot of pop culture references in sitcoms that you may not understand so the joke may not appear funny but don't let that discourage you. It will eventually work out :D

    By the way, the most difficult thing I had with English (until now) was the use of prepositions.. Try to work on that as well :D/>

    --- Grew up watching Spin City, Friends, Dharma and Greg, 8 Simple Rules etc. etc.

    "Fanfiction.net": Does No One Review?

    I didn't even know that site even existed :huh: thanks for sharing..

    I'm pretty sure a lot of people want to write a review especially when they want to show appreciation to the author. But when they finally sit down, they suddenly think that the review they've written is too melodramatic, does not make sense, or may subject them to ridicule. Especially if the reader does not have English as a first language. At least that's what I felt when I tried to make a review when I was in high school.
