Question:
I'm looking for an English course around Harrogate (which probably means
Leeds or York) to improve my English (especially regarding
pronounciation and grammar). Even though I lived for two years in London
before (I'm German), I never managed to start looking around for a
course, so now I want to try it here. Unfortunately, the most EFL
courses only cover basic English.
Has anyone any recommendations? Or any other way to improve my English?
Answer:
There is no such thing as "proper" English in the same way as there is
"proper" German with official publications defining what it is and how
German should be written, punctuated, spelled etc.
English lexicographers *describe* *how* English is used.
Only old fogies such as you find on ucle believe that there is a way in
which English *should* be written. Life and the English language has
changed since I was at school in the 1940/50s.
