Daily Journal 3 Sept 2015

6. Daily Journal 3 Sept 2015
I have been studying English for about 12 years. There are many challenging aspects of English. For me the most challenging aspect is the variety of choices of vocabulary. Many people think that grammar is difficult, which it is, but I don’t think it is that important. Definitely, all the different meanings of words and that so many words might mean the same thing.
The most rewarding aspect of learning English is the ability to discuss ideas and share experiences with so many different people from different places. I think that this makes the challenge totally worth it!
