Question:
I'm from Argentina and I'm learning English.
I'd like to know if there are some good CHAT ROOMS to learn and practise
English language. Some advice?
Answer:
This may not be a good idea because:
1. However colloquial in style, Chat Rooms
are conducted in writing. You cannot hear
how English sounds: but you can hear
English sounds by listening to BBC World
News, going to American movies etc.
2. Most Chat Rooms have no particular
focus, i.e. have nothing to do with your
personal interests (which might be
collecting stamps or Bronze Age art or
Moroccan cinema.)
If I wanted to learn
Swedish, being interested in fishing and
music, I should look for Swedish language
websites for fishing and music, because
I could (partly) understand what is written
and perhaps take part in discussion -- and
expect egregious mistakes to be corrected.
