Hello! I started learning English at 39, and I speak with an accent. But I don't understand why people don't understand me when I say very simple words. For example, I asked a worker in a grocery store: "Where can I find honey?"
- What? She did not understand me.
- Honey, I said again.
-What?
I realize I speak with an accent, but how on earth is it possible not to understand such a simple word even if it is said with an accent? If I asked her where I could find existential life meaning in the grocery store and she did not understand me, I would understand her. But I asked only for honey.
Once, in Home Depot, I asked a man where I could find an ant killer.
- What? he asked.
- Ant Killer.
- Sorry, I don't understand you.
How on earth is it possible not to understand such simple words as ant and killer? Even if I pronounce it "aunt killer," we are in Home Depot, after all!

Hello,
I would greatly appreciate it if you explain to me why "the" article is not used in front of the "Figure" word in the following sentence:
See the result in Figure 1.
I understand more or less when I have to use "a" and when I have to use "the" article but I cannot understand why sometimes the noun has no article.

Please check the grammar of the text below. And please let me know what title do you like or dislike?
I decided to write a book where computer programming is used as a brain exercise.
I created simple computer programing code examples that draw fun, colorful shapes on a web page for this book.
Maybe it sounds scary, but computer programming is not hard to understand. For instance, I was a biologist and could learn computer programming at 50. I wrote a few titles for that book.
I would greatly appreciate it if you let me know which one you prefer. Or maybe you have a better idea?

How to express correctly the following idea:
Often a person who is capable of doing very well, something that most people are not capable of doing, is not capable of doing what everyone is capable of doing.
It often happens that a person who is able to do very well, what most people are not able to do, is not able to do what everyone is able to do.

I am an author, but English is not my native language. I recenly bought prowritingaid.com
They claim that it not only check grammar but also improves the style.
My original sentence is:
Using our instructions, create a strong password that is difficult to guess!
The program changed it to:
Using our instructions, create a strong password difficult to guess!
Is it really an improvement of style?

When should place comma before the and in an English sentence?
I use Grammarly for checking my grammar, and it suggests me to add a comma each time I use and.
For example, "What you need to do is to create your website, somehow attract visitors, and place Google ads on your web pages."
Or such example: "I like blueberry, cherry, and grape."
I thought, should add a comma in front of "and" only when it connects two sentences.
I thought I should not add a comma when I list the items like in the second example, but Grammarly forces me to insert a comma. Is it correct for US English?

When I was about six years old, we moved to a small Siberian town, Sretensk.
We lived in my grandparents’ house. The house has a big backyard and was located on the outskirts of town.
Near the house, was a bold mountain with no trees, covered with grass. In spring, with the thawing snow, a wide stream ran down the mountain and washed out soil from the rocks. In summer, the stream dried and the stones formed a distorted stair up to the hill. My brothers and I liked to climb those rock stairs and look for beautiful pieces of stones. On the grass field, we caught grasshoppers and butterflies. It was the happiest time of my life.
A couple of years ago, my wife found a job in Navajo reservation, and we moved to Window Rock, AZ, where we rent a house with a big backyard. From our window, we can see mountains with rocks. One rock has an opening and called Window Rock. I like to walk on the Window Rock trail with my dog. These mountains remind me of my happy childhood time I spent with my brother in the small Siberian town, Sretensk.
