Ihorns Nis Tvery Pgay
Not very
Why
don't be a litigator lol
@Horns isn't it obvious that Im not
No.
There are plenty of things to do with a legal degree besides litigation
one thing non-native speakers find hard to crack is "the"
I know I am saying go transactional or something
Ah
Yeah I probably will
I'm too autistic to be a litigator
to this very day, I'm helped in knowing where to put and where to omit "the" only through slowly and progressively built intuition
I have to re-read text and to figure out by rhythm if I have somewhere mistakenly put "the" where it should not be, which may sound bizarre to native speakers who think in different terms alltogether
You should study, from crow, as to best write your "the", wherein one must also find the best place for the comma, which is, in fact, the greatest gift the god (of Reality), ever bestowed upon its children.
I'm a master of commas
Commas are entirely subject to my superb sense for rhythm to which I shall admit I'm better suited in my native tongue where my rhythm is so flawlessly Caesarean and pristine
I bend everything to conform to rhythm. I re-read things aloud in my head to figure out if the text has been butchered when it comes to diction, rhythm, flow
Nothing worse than intellectual diatribes that one read as if he is reading a pharmaceutical manual
No
...
what then?
My native tongue is Serbian, which makes my job twice as difficult
Too many foreign word we have which obstruct fluent speech, but only occasionally augment it
Did you mean Caeserean as in a C-Section?
No, I mean Cesarean as in the style of Julius Caesar
I'm afraid I will never achieve a grand style of writing in English, possibly due to lack of immersion in culture, which does not allow me to understand completely what Anglophone people consider unnatural and mechanical in speech . Joseph Conrad is one stunning example of a foreigner who seems to have completely grasped it on the other hand.
But his ability seem miles ahead of mine
Study nester.
Nabokov mastered english prose too
although Conrad is certainly grander, I don't think N lacked the ability to write grandly if he had wanted to
of course, he was speaking english very early
very high status family
Find the Bristow
Bristow Palin
WHERE IS NESTER?
SOMEONE BROUGHT HIM BACK. HE SHOULD STAY.
