2. people like to create their own way when they speak. such as "what's up", some would say "wasup", and some say "sup"... when they are being used a lot, which i think they are fashionable?
5. a good tone of english? native speakers have good tone. that's what i mean.

one more thing for number 2. "linking", what i think is, it means the joining of two or more words when we speak. i.e. "what are you doing?" when we speak, "what" and "are" become to /.
Thank you
