Hello, sorry for my terrible grammar but I don't know which sentences are right.


Is it

I wish I could play that game as well as you
or I wish I could play that game as good as you

Is it

I rarely read now or
I rarely read anymore

I don't do that as much now or
I don't do that as much anymore

Thank you for reading and I can't wait for your response!


I started to learn English at such a young age but my grammar isn't that good. Does anyone know why it's so bad?

The second is grammatically incorrect, but some people say it anyway.

Is it

I rarely read now or
I rarely read anymore
Both are fine.

I don't do that as much now or
I don't do that as much any more.

Again both are fine, with just a shade of difference in meaning.

It's hard for me to tell why your grammar is so bad, but I suspect it's not as bad as you think it is.

Your native language being German gives you somewhat of an an advantage. (German and English are related.)

Welcome to the forum. :hi:

Please note my corrections above. When you give us several sentences to consider, it's very helpful to number them so that we can refer to them easily in our responses. It will also help you to remember to put a closing punctuation mark at the end of each one.

... which is also a requirement in German, isn't it?
