what is the difference between fluency and fluently? and what about diction and enunciation? please kindly considerate the questions because somewhere out there will not be very considerate. for me learning is not a matter of perfection because no one is perfect but we can do everything in almost perfect. somehow we look for comprehension, spelling, usage of words which should be grammatically correct, but you know what? as we go along in practices we can improve a lot. that's why I'm looking beyond the question, seeking of how could i understand and trying to answer their questions. hoping that I'm not only helping his/her problem thus, I'm learning too^.^

Hello Wary, Fluency is the noun while fluently is the adverb. Fluency: the quality of being facile and skillful in speech and writing of a language. "In spite of being Chinese ,his Fluency in Japanese is remarkable." fluently : in a fluent manner ,expressing oneself clearly, effectively and easily in speech . "He speaks English fluently." ( in a clear, easy and effective manner) diction: The articulation of speech ,it is almost a synonym of "enunciation" in this sense. It has another distinctive meaning which refers to the manner something is expressed in words; the way of speaking. It could be both a way of speaking or writing. enunciation : is the articulation or pronunciation of words in speech, usually clearly and distinctly. It is the aspect of pronunciation that involves bringing articulatory organs together so as to shape the sounds of speech.
