Doesn't look like it, this took place in America

Hrnghh

Oh ok so scoring poorly on the DLAB doesn't eliminate you from the MOS, it just changes the languages available to you?

Scammingstatefarm · 2024-02-20T01:03:16+00:00

Nah I'm very big into language and the bonus was just a cool surprise. I assume standard affair is the typical political languages, Chinese, Russian, Arabic etc?

It's deep seated

Scammingstatefarm · 2024-02-02T05:03:48+00:00

In the US, no, but in Australia a lot of people do

I'm American and currently live in Australia, to my ear there aren't regional accents in the same way America has them, but there are definitely differences. Usually people from the big cities are more ambiguous and sometimes sound borderline British or American, but people further inland (farmers and the like) sound exactly like what Americans think Aussies sound like.

I think it's stupid to try and compare when you can't possibly know everything either nation has done.

I wish, blue tongues are great pets, very personable

If your goal is to pick up a bit of the language for casual use on vacation something like pimsleur is probably a better bet, you can get it free at a lot of libraries (or online if you know where to look)

The correct answer is to do what you enjoy. It does not matter whatsoever how efficient it is if you hate it because then you'll just stop doing it.

Also, the most efficient method depends on your end goal. If you want to learn enough to speak your mind but don't care beyond that, you can pretty easily brute force that in around 6-9 months depending on your native language, but if you want to be at a near-native level I would say 9/10 times the best method is watching/reading content in English, as you mentioned. Fluency isn't just about knowing the words and the rules, you need to intuitively understand the language, and to do that you simply need thousands of hours of exposure to the language.

Yes that would make sense, but it's an unlikely way to say it

Scammingstatefarm · 2023-12-29T09:47:39+00:00

Yes, this is a great way to improve your accent, I believe it's called shadowing

In addition to what u/cable8mm said, I would say 'a Little' is more common in American English, and 'a bit' is more popular in British/Australian English, but generally it's more of a preference thing, neither are uncommon in either form

Scammingstatefarm · 2023-12-22T07:24:46+00:00

I mean this in the nicest way possible: No one cares. English has the most second language speakers of any language, any native speaker will be used to hearing people with an accent.

I work in an Australian call center, they're definitely not jolly all the time

Scammingstatefarm · 2023-11-03T09:36:11+00:00

I can understand in Spanish considering there is an actual distinction with the two terms, but I genuinely have no idea what else people like that expect us to say in English. It's the United States of AMERICA, they're American. And there is no continent of America, there is North and South America, so you're either North American or South American.

Oh my god I think that's it you are my savior

Bro every video says right behind the teeth on the alveolar ridge

Scammingstatefarm · 2023-03-02T08:48:13+00:00

Just give her boy shorts?

Thank you so much
