Why do you want to improve your English?

[Kumi]

Hi Torsten, Hi all,

First of all, I'd like to 'thank you' for giving us a good opportunity to talk about our purposes to improve English.
(Especially to Torsten!!)

I've been reading this thread, and I'm impressed with the posts from all of you.
Some of your words and opinions really encouraged me to spend much time and energy trying to improve my English.

Why do I want to improve my English?
- I have several reasons.
I have a job which is related to English, so it's one of the reasons, of course.
Besides, I really love communicating in English! English is the most useful language in the world, and it's widely used in many countries. I love talking with people from different countries, to exchange opinions, to share the idea, to share the feelings, to develope myself, and to extend my point of view more.
We have different view of things and concepts because of our backgrounds, but it's fantastic we are able to know each other using one language(and more languages). Don't you think so?
(There are some other languages that I'd like to learn in the future, but at the moment I need to improve English first.)

BTW, I read «Bridget Jones's Diary» both in English and Japanese(my mother tongue). It's really funny... at first I read it in Japanese, but it wasn't interesting at all.... !! Then I read it in English, and I found it very intereting. This experience has shown me how different the concepts between English and Japanese are. I laughed a lot while I was reading it in English, and I really enjoyed it.
