well. i think most of what BobbyChopper has said is shit, but i will give him that so far English english has been the hardest to understand losing only to american southern accents (red-neck and hill-billy) on which i have given up completely. .
in IELTS i got 7.5 and then went to england to study for a week. with some people i could speak freely but others -i had no idea what they were saying. i could understand my substitute native-english teacher as good as any and most of the women at the bar or on streets, but almost never any personal in the shops except for the IT guy when i bought my laptop. it was in Nottingham but sounded like half of the people were from Liverpool.
