I AM SO DEPRESSED

2008-01-02 11:15:52 / 天气: 晴朗 / 心情: 郁闷 / 个人分类：talk with the heaven

New Roman" color=#ff0000 size=5>I don't know if I should go on writing my own blog in english. Thanks to Monica, who is a kind and helpful lady, gave me comment on my writing. She said I am still write in chinglish, which is the last thing for me to know and for which I have had some premonition.

All my efforts have been made in vain. I am so depressed. Why is it so difficult to learn and master a foreign language? That is the biggest setback and frustration in my life.

I have been trying to write the way a native speaker may do. I don't want to put a lot of words together and no one can understand anything of it, and even a native speak will have to guess at the meanings.

I have made every effort to put to use what i have learned in english, especially the difficult words and phrases. A Chinese proverb goes like " a newborn calf, who has not much experience in life, is not afraid of a tiger." I am like that calf in my english.

Who could be so kindly to point me the right way, to the right direction, to write in english?

I come here to practice official writing, or what you say academic writing, though sometimes I just write down what I want to talk to others, which is more likely oral english. So I want my english to be grammatically correct.

--------

should be CANNOT

I always type too fast just like I talk fast....can't help it....

删除 Monica1981 发布于2008-01-02 15:06:39: By the way,

NOT YOU are writing Chinese English.

It is ALL OF YOU here are writing Chinese English....

You guys are Chinese so really, this is totally understandable....

No one is expecting Chinese are writing perfect English...

Good try anyway...

删除 Monica1981 发布于2008-01-02 15:04:04: read my articles "How to improve your english" and "tips for english writing" which I posted in November 2007...

If you have more time, go to read "How do I think about your blog"...

And hope these articles can give you some help...

------------

If you get depressed just because you can't manage English well...

So I should kill myself right now because I can read Chinese very well...

So no point to feel down about it...

-----------------------

Native speak ????

What does that mean???

I gotta guess now...you must mean An English Speaking person or English people !!!

-----------
Another suggestion is you need to know why you are here writing...

If you want to improve your academic writing, you need to read my articles "Wow, lets' try sth really serious here" (in Dec) and "just a little bit depper to read" (in Nov.)...because these are articles which can meet University standards and they are proper essays...

If you just want to write sth about your normal life, in other words, you are here practising Speaking more than writing....You read the rest of my articles because these articles have tiny grammer mistakes but they are totally acceptable in our daily conversation... it is just the way we talk so really, it is more like talking rather than academic writing...

---------------

Hope all the suggestions can cheer you up a bit ....
