English as Foreign Mother Language

Though we all have mother language to speak/express. We all are affiliated to english as mother language, right from the day when we started learning at school in english mode. Remembering the school days when i used to just memorise the words without understanding the true meaning of it , molecules , atoms , to name a few. Worst are the days when i have to memorise even the conjunctions and adjectives and struggling to make up my own sentences...

somehow Memorising part was over in the late school days after done with middle level...

Now...in a level i need to interact with people whose true mother tongue is ENGLISH. Yes as a software engineer working for USA clients, my day starts interacting with those ENGLISH people.
Really getting embarrassed when my pronunciation goes wrong , or when i am using wrong words in a wrong context...

To the funniest part, today i mis pronounced a name "MICHELLE". It sounds really different.
For those who don't know it yet,

  • MICHELLE  --> mih - shEHI
  • MICHELLE --> mike aile

Hmm.. need to accept that. we are living in a world where ENGLISH is the true intercommunication language across countries. 

Happy Communicating English every one!!.
