Translated by Luis Fernando Carvajal. The title is correct; does not say do speak you English? What I want to know is if you speak your own language. Do you do it? Well, that is good. But I’m sorry, I do not believe him. Do you speak when you are running to catch a bus? When is swimming? Or sneezing? Do you speak Spanish when in the Chair forward a taxi with three friends in the back and a driver who does not stop talking in a loud voice? Again I say, I don’t think so. My point is: there are some circumstances in which it is very difficult, or impossible, to speak in any way. How many times have you tried to speak English in a really difficult position because he is excited by practicing? If you are a student who is going to an English speaking country the first people who you know will be of less help. This is not because they don’t want to help you but because they are very busy.
The cabin crew and administrative personnel at airports simply don’t have time for talks and this is the truth about immigration and customs officers. You may have luck with his first taxi driver because they often like to chat but even so, the trip is likely to be short. Even if you stay in their own country and has a chance to speak English may not have ideal conditions at the beginning. You may be a newcomer to a conversation group where it seems that everyone knows and you are abroad unless you have great confidence needs to make an effort to encourage you to join a conversation. However, a sympathetic group with collaborator members should make the process easier. But I usually suggest that you have a strategy to provide the best opportunities. When you are in an English speaking country the best method is to join groups: Scouts, local citizens, volunteers in hospitals and perhaps the Church any aspect of life that was interested in his own country.
You can also search for Exchange conversations, which can be effective and free. These they require some work to organize and there are some security implications. You need care. If you are organized in their new country and have free time, could exploit much looking for people to talk in one way or another. Original author and source of the article.
