My best problem with learning English...

Question

Please, could you proofread my mistakes in this paragraph?

My best problem with learning English is that I had spoken very wrong this language for years and the main problem is that I always had translated the sentences when I could not told in English. With this problem I did not have problem in the Basic course, but when I was in the Intermediate course I began with the problems so my grades began to down, because I could not separate of my speaking the translate. The sentences that I could not speak in English such as I was costumed to say I can to play …. Now it is difficult to me to express me the modals without “to” such as I can play….. , and so, as the modals as there were many English structures that I had translated, and this is a great problem until now to me.

Thanks

Answer 1

My biggest problem with learning English was that I had spoken the English language incorrectly for many years. The main problem was that I had always translated the sentences when I couldn't understand them in English. I did not have the problem in the basic course, but when I was in the intermediate course the problems began so my grades began to go down because I could not separate my speaking from the translations. The sentences that I could not say in English such as " I can play," I was accustomed to saying " I can to play." Now it is difficult for me to express the modals without "to," There were many English structure modals that I had translated and this has been a great problem for me until now.

Snce "wrong" is an adjective, "wrongly" (which is little used nowdays) or "incorrectly" would be better. - samdie, Oct 7, 2011

"separate" (cf. "the Spanish "separar"). - samdie, Oct 7, 2011

Your paragraph is very difficult to correct May.

If you could give us the same paragraph but in Spanish we could correct your English.

Answer 3

Someone will help you, be patient. I wish I could help but I'm not qualified . I'm fighting these battles with the Spanish language. There is no easy way. Keep trying. Buena suerte.

Answer 4

One thing right away is "Best problem" is not correct.

I think you mean to say... "My biggest problem...".
