So many words each containing ikla meaning combined in Facility.
Then, Right, for example, also means power, justice, and a direction.
Whereas in my language, each word contain one meaning, even if there are more than one, whose are relevant.

But I like to learn English, not like the language, because although my English is really poor, yes I know how bad my English it is while I speak English to English, they always understand what I want to express. When I ask them how do they feel my English, they always say "your English is good, even better than students in Englsih country". Wow my God, that makes me feeling better I like the language when I use it anyone can understand. Making others understand me, that is a language fundamentally working for I think.
The English as a language to me is an amazing tool, looks like everyone can use it in own way. This is the most open language compare with others I guess.

Some one says English is a necessary tool. I agree with him saying this, but since so many translators in this world, I think if I want to know what are some English saying or writing, I can use translator, so I don't want to make learning English so utilitariant, I come here learn English just for fun, for practising. Sadly my family has no money to provide me go to college, my parents are not speaking English, so my circumstances are not good for learning English thnks to internet, I found this forum that is a good platform for my purpose. Maybe you will come to help me? I wish.
