Here in New York City, we have millions of foreign-born people striving to learn conversational
English. As a psychologist and city resident, I encounter them every day.
For you, what poses the most challenge in grammar and syntax?
What grammatical "rules" are most confusing to you?
What is most frustrating in trying to master English?
And how important is it for you to learn with a native English speaker?
Do you when to use fewer and when to use less?
For example, which is correct:
1) There are fewer students in class today.
2) There are less students in class today.
1) There is fewer water in the lake today.
2) There is less water in the lake today.
Would anyone like to tell me what you think is the correct answer, and why?
Most Americans do not know the correct answer sorry to say!
