Dear Friends
I am Milan from India. I have learned Spoken English in a easy way from a good institute.
So, I wanna offer all the methods with every one.For that reason I have made an website rather a blog related to spoken English.
.
The motto of this massage is that I would like to accept your opinions which will help me to create this site or blog more
informative, easy and effective.

Please tell me what more should I add in this blog that can be helpful for all.

My site name is ( speakeasylkme.blogspot.com )

Your suggestions will be the best reward for me.
Have a nice day.

Regards
Milan Bahadur

Hi A New Friend Here!can any one help me please? Sat Jul 26, 2008 8:32 am  Hi A New Friend Here!can any one help me please?
 

Milan, I don't like being this blunt with you, but my best suggestion for you about your site is to take it down. It's a horrible mish-mash of misspellings, wrongly used words, distorted and misunderstood idioms and countless other problems.

At the top of the page you claim that you're giving examples of English using American expressions. However, many of these expressions would be considered bizarre by Americans and would not be understood. For example, there is no expression "flavor of the mouth". We do have an expression "flavor of the MONTH", but it doesn't mean favorite. You also wrote, "I have a haunch." The word "haunch" means "a buttock and thigh considered together, in a human or animal" (Oxford American Dictionary). The word you want is "hunch".

Then there is the craziest one of all, which is "I don like so much mafficking (I don't like so gorgeous calibrations)". An American would not be able to understand the idiom OR its definition. It's complete nonsense!

Those aren't all the crazy mistakes on your website, but in fact almost everything on the site is wrong. Please don't embarrass us Americans by claiming we speak that way!
