Differences between English spoke and English writing in my perception. The human is in evolution and your cultures as well, then your language is constantly changing all the time without you notice daily, English for example I often receive text that people write: “what’re ya doin” and when sent you abbreviate a phrase in three letters? Sounds confusion when you are learning a new language and you see this, but I prefer don’t using this kind of language because my focus is different I really want to become fluent in the language but in order I want to write with a correct grammar. And in my mother language I see it happening all the time, but sometimes and we have a sense of don’t do it because sounds wrong to say it incorrectly. I think that American English is a little lazy to talk they abbreviate many things and when you talk with a native speaker you maybe will speak with a correct grammar but you will see that sounds more easy to say some things abbreviate for example: I’m going to do my dinner = I gonna do my dinner in this phrase you just changed the going to to GONNA ok you lose the TO and it looks more easy to say but when you write formally you have to write correctly writing. What I want show is this difference between Portuguese and English, in Portuguese you see some abbreviations speaking but even Brazilian prefer don’t use it because sounds incorrect and in the writing is the same you have to write correctly, in English looks different you can say it abbreviate but make sure that you are speaking this way with someone that you know and the conversation doesn’t sound formal, and when writing you shall write correctly but it depends for who are you writing for.

Marcelo, This text is somewhat long with many small errors. Many teachers and ordinary people will spend five minutes to correct a short text, but not many will spend twenty minutes or thirty minutes to correct a longer text, especially if there are three errors in the first sentence. Please consider writing a shorter text, learn from the feedback, then write a better text and continue making progress in small steps. Good luck to you.

If humans are evolving, and their cultures are evolving as well, then language is constantly changing all the time without you noticing daily. With English, for example, I often receive texts wherein people write: “what’re ya doin” and when would you send an abbreviation of a phrase in three letters? Sounds like confusion when you are learning a new language and you see this, but I prefer not using this kind of language because my focus is different. I really want to become fluent in the language, but in order to do that, I must write with correct grammar. And in my mother language, I see it happening all the time sometimes, and we have a sense of not to do it because sounds wrong to say it incorrectly. I think that American English is a little lazy in talk since they abbreviate many things and when they talk with a native speaker. You may speak with a correct grammar, but you will see that sounds are more easy to say in abbreviation. For example: I’m going to do my dinner = I gonna do my dinner. In this phrase, you just changed the going to to GONNA! Okay, you lose the TO, and it looks more easy to say, but when you write formally you have to write correctly. What I want to show is this difference between Portuguese and English: in Portuguese, you see some abbreviations in speaking, but even Brazilians prefer not to use them because it sounds incorrect, and in the writing, it is the same, and you have to write correctly, yet in English, it looks different, and you can say it with abbreviations, but make sure that you are speaking this way with someone that you know. In this way, the conversation doesn’t sound formal. When writing, you should write correctly, but it depends for whom are you writing.

Ok I'll continue writing here my texts as long as I can and expressing my ideas. Try to say something positive instead to say for someone that are learning a language that your English is not good its very rude in my culture.

Your English is not good so please if you really want to improve Keep your texts short for now because the person correcting has to rewrite almost everything and this is the reason I am not doing it . I hope you will find a teacher to help you with grammar because you have good ideas . Good luck for your study
