I also think it is difficult, because I can't tell what I want to say.
I always think I want to speak very well and to have English vocabularies..
I have some American friend.
One of them came back to America, I wanted to tell her gratitude for teaching English and showing me the naval base.
However, I told her only the word "THANK YOU"...
If I have a lot of English vocabularies words, I can convey my appreciation:(
I regretted it...
And I have been to Australia to experience home stay when I was a student in high school.
Because this is my first abroad trip, I was very nervous.
I have no confidence of listening, therefore I deceived it laughingly sometimes.
But my host family is very kind.
They worried about me and talked slowly.
So I enjoyed home stay:)
It is difficult to tell my mind, but I try to express what I want to say!
I study English hard to communicate with everyone all over the world!!
