How can I learn "listening skills" (diary) These days I learn English with watching youtube, kinds like "study blog" or "daily lives in university". However I can't catch up with their speed of talking. I think it's because there are so many omissions of accent of words in sentences. Maybe I have to try to speak properly using right accent to speak as native speakers and get what they are talking about. Is there anything good way to acquire nice accent? I hope not the way which requires a lot amount of money.
