As I read something in English, there are some easy or difficult things for me. Firstly, the easy thing to me is that actually I think it is easier to understand what they want to say in English because the way to express or say in English is more direct than my language. So, when I read something, I can understand what they want to say clearly and qucikly. On the other hand the difficult thing is that firstly the words. There are so many meanings per word. If I know the meaning of a word, there are another meanings that I don’t know. And I've learned ‘dsubject+verb+object’ is the form of a cluase but sometimes, there are some different sequence of the clause. I know when people want to emphasize something, they use change the sequence of the forms but it is hard to use and write for me. I guess it takes long time untill i can use the phrase.
And usually i read something in English on the train, bus, the internet, book and i even can read English anywhere cause I live in the US using English as the main language. But for improving my English, I read books and articles on the New York Times' web site at home or library. As reading books or article I use my smart phone to find the meaning of the words that I do not know. Smart phone is helpful to study English. If i do not know a word, i can search it up on the dictionary app or the internet. I prefer using a internet wesite-especially Korean wesite,Naver,- because the dictionary on Navr has many example of the words that i want to know and they show many usages of the words. So I can check another usage of the words. And sometims they do not have some words like slang I use google and slang dictionary, or sometimes when i couldn't find the words on the internet or dictionary, i ask my American friends.
And i note the words on my note and sometimes i note soem sentences that i like. And rerely sometimes i memorize the phrase.
And sometimes i dont use dictionary when i don't want to use dictionary because if i read a book then sometims i don't want to stop reading only for the word that i do not know and i just want to keep reading even if i have some words that i dont, then i just skip over the words. Actually although i did not know that word, it is not the big problem to understand the story.
And reading books i realize there are some other great way to say it like it on the book. I want to write something and express something like it in English but i forget almost everything after reading it. So not forgetting it, i sometimes memorize the phrase. However the sad thing is that even if i memorize it, i again forget the phrase because i think i dont use the phrase and remind it after memorizing.
And I am not sure about this, but i feel like it is easier to forget the story after reading a book that i read in English than my language.
I like reading books. However, now i prefer to read books in my language than books in English.
