Welcome to the forum. :hi:

PS [strike]english[/strike]- it's English
PPS [strike]spelling grammer[/strike]- there's a spelling mistake there (grammar) and as they're separate things, you could use a conjunction (and) to connect them. ;-)

Wow, that was a fantastic start. All i can say is prepare yourself's for plethora of mistakes, Let this be a harbinger for you. I hope it's feasible that you guy's can help quell all if not some of my mistakes. I just want to enhance my english skills to a acceptable level.

First of all, throw your thesaurus in the trash. Next, concentrate on the little things that demonstrate an imperfect knowledge of standard English.

ALWAYS capitalize the first-person pronoun I.
The plural of yourself is yourselves.
Always capitalize proper nouns and proper adjectives English.

I don't use a thesaurus, Infact i don't even own one. I am learning new vocabulary that i would like to you use more often, to help with memorisation, and to learn different way's in which i can use it. The problem I face is that even though I have learnt the new words I often try to recall them in conversation but fail miserably.

I feel my spoken and writen English is in privation, due to my implacable and fruitless memorisation.
