    Hi guys,
    I've been thinking a way to improve the communicating ability in English for a long time.I live in a remote area and still struggling to find proper resource to polish it.I have seen so many these kind trds in Ek and don't want to make this trd as a same kind one.I'm not fluent and I want to be so.I know there are so many fluent crackers in EK and I want their help to polish ours.I invite everybody in Ek who seek a chance to improve their ability and kindly invite to experts to donate their valuable time for us..
    so let's start.....

    Can anybody tell me how to tell in English " මම ගණන් ටිකක් හැදුවා" I tried but it didn't make any sense.

    sounds like a good idea
    I think the biggest problem with most people is that they're somewhat afraid of making mistakes when speaking or writing in english which is ridiculous in my opinion. Most people wouldn't laugh at you for making a mistake, and the few who may laugh... who cares?
    but getting better in a language comes with practice, whether that's grammar, speaking or increasing your vocabulary.
    so reading is a must in my opinion, read good books as as often as you can.
    Watching movies or tv can be a good learning source too as it may expose you to more words and idioms that you normally wouldn't come across in everyday life.
    You'd be surprised how much you can pickup from watching others speak without even knowing it. :yes::yes::yes:
    let me know if I can help
    wish you all the best :D:D:D

    Thank you very much bro...
    I used to watch films with subtitles and tried to catch the accent and i think I'm quite successful with it.unfortunately I'm busy these days with my job and higher educations and hard to find time for now. I don't mind what others think about my knowledge and I do have confident what i'm doing when i am communicating. Thanks again for your advice bro... So don't go far away from this trd :D

    "I did some calculations" or "I did some math"
    depends on the context though

    i mean as students they study Mathematics in the school.They do homework at night.So next day they would say " I did some Maths yeaterday" Is that Ok ?
