lmao! i was born with english in my mouth so no, never got confused over words, only in french, i learnt french in 10 months and i speak it almost perfectly, i get confused with "j and g" in french "j" is pronounced "g" and "g" is pronounced "j", its kinda confusing sometimes since my last name is ajayi and when i spell it i usually get confused and they sometimes write "agayi", lmao laugh.gif

I was in ESL too, but I was a complete Chinese American. *shrug* And no, I never really had any trouble with those two words.

How does it feel to be in there? I've always wondered.. ermm.gif

and I would get confused between kitchen and chicken. Not that I didn't know the different, but the pronounciations always confused me. Haha. But I never make that mistake anymore!

Was I the only one?  rolleyes.gif  wink.gif

My boyfriend can't make "th" sounds.. It either comes out a F sound or a D sound.

Brudder = brother, baFroom = bathroom

I think it's ADORABLE when people have trouble pronouncing something hehe :D I hope my bf never learns to make the TH sound.. It's cute when he says brudder and bafroom.. :D

Wow this topic was brought back from the dead.. ph34r.gif

Yeah, I would always get kitchen and chicken mixed up. Oh, I'd also get Jello and Yellow messed up too. Sad part is I was born and raised in the U.S.

omg same here!!! i had problems with kitchen and chicken!! like my teacher asked me to say as a sentence... and yeahhh i said my favorite food is kitchen >.<;;;;;;;; and also i said we have an old chicken, but it still looks like brand new. it supposed to be kitchen, but i put chicken >.<;; it was embarrassing for me, but oh wells!! i was an esl student!! no one cant stop me mwahaha... uh hum anyways also he and she... i thought she was a guy and he was a girl >.<;; i got it all confused T___T;; also their and there hehe... and then/than ^__^;;;;;;;;;

Can you believe that I'm still in ESL Class cry.gif sigh i wish she just put me away from that class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont want no more ESL...well it's EASY SO IT'S FUN! well i hate skits and presentations.. my teacher does it wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy tooo much. anyways i got out of ESL when I was in 7th grade, but when i was in 8th grade... i moved to einstein middle school at shoreline, washington.. they gived me the test and i took it. before i took it, i remember that there was lot of korean people in the ESL class, so by getting to know them, i have to get in ESL class..so i pretend that i failed that test..............

and it's so weird!! whenever i tried to take the ESL getting out of the class test... i get so nervous that i cant hardly concentrate, then i lose my focus........................then i fail the test. it's sad and SUCKS!!

You really think so? I spent 4 years learning english and i think i am pretty good but my friends spent 10 years trying to learn chinese and they still can't speak chinese as good as me. i was in esl in arr... 5th grade. Wonderful times there.... i used to confuse chicken and kitchen and i can never say three... but i guess i got much better.
