As a student, I feel more comfortable writing in English than in Filipino or any other language. I find it easier and convenient to express my thoughts in English. This is because I and I should say all other students had been exposed to the English language since elementary. The English language had been the medium of instruction in school. Text books are written in English except for some few subjects.
If you write in English, you already have an inherent advantage. You can reach a wider audience and could be easily understood. More people and nationalities use the English language. Widely considered as a universal language, English as well is dynamic. No wonder why it is the preferred language used by the writers worldwide. Even in the internet, the English language dominates. Web sites and blogs are written in English.
I believe it really pays to write using the English language.

I am not good in English,just comfortable listening and trying to express my ideas using the language. More then,when it comes to speaking English, I should say I better stop talking. But still, I think I need to try and help myself. Do it for my own good.
ReplyDeleteYou have a healthy perspective towards writing in English. Keep writing. You will become very good at it soon:-) You'll see.
ReplyDeleteEven for me, I find it easier to speak or write in English. But sometimes, when it comes to speaking, my nervousness strikes and I really don't know what words will come out to my mouth next. üÜ
