janice6 31,726 Posted December 1, 2018 It is interesting to me when I am typing and make a mistake using the wrong word and then realize I only have to change a letter or two and it's a completely different meaning. There really is subtle differences that make it confusing if your not "from here". In an English writing class, I had a professor use a Chinese woman's essay as an example of excellent writing. He then asked why her writing was so good. I told him that it was because she learned to write properly from textbooks and we learned to write the way we spoke. He laughed. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
