Of all the poeeible probleme that I have experienced when trying to learn this language.the meet difficult problem that I have encountered Is that English does not seem to be spoken by Americans in the same way that ~ was presented in my textbooks. For instance, the first time that ( asked an American a question, I got a, The man who answered my question said something that sounded like I was sure that I had never studied this expreeet on In my textbooks. and I could not find anything like it in my textbooks, and I could not find anything like it in my dictionary. I was ~J~1l;SI~tom learn later from a friend that this mysterious-sounding answer was really nothing more than a shortened version of "I do not know."Not too long after that I had an even more interesting example of my meet difficult problem in learning English. One evening,I was unable to do eorne chemistry homework problems eo the next when gave the rather bizarre answer that the .:Ieeignment had been a to do with the "piece of cake." I was not quite sure what a piece of cake had chemistry assignment, so I responded that I was not quite sure that the assignment really was a piece of cake. I have learned by now that she meant that the aseignment was quite easy. Overall,I'm sure it ie clear from these L two exampleswhat I find eo difficult about the Englieh language.
