English is my mother tongue. Besides, I can speak French and Spanish. I studied the two languages when I was at high school. Now, I am still learning Spanish at the University. As for me, mastering a foreign language is not easy. After studying a language, practice is very necessary and useful. Travelling to the country where the target language is spoken is very helpful, but if you cannot speak the language well enough you will certainly have troubles. I also frequently go to the movies, watch television, listen to the radio in the language I am trying to learn. Reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I personally think newspapers and magazines are better. However, getting some knowledge of the language is the most important thing. Grammar and vocabulary should be mastered first.

Although the United States is a large country with many people, the language is almost the same wherever one goes. There are two reasons for this. One is that people move around a great deal in the United States. A man may grow up in one part of the country, go to college in another part, find work in another place, and marry a girl from still another part of the country. Railroads, airplanes, cars and highways make it easy to travel in America. Many large companies have branches in different areas of the country and transfer their workers from one branch to another. The second important factor is public communication. Movies, radio, and television all have a standard way of speech, and almost everyone in the United States hears it. There are, however, some words and expressions more common
in one part of the country than in others. Throughout the history of the United States, large groups of
immigrants have come to make their homes and they give new words to the language.

Mặc dù Hoa Kỳ là một quốc gia rộng lớn với nhiều người, nhưng ngôn ngữ hầu như giống nhau ở bất kỳ nơi đâu. Có hai lý do cho việc này. Một là mọi người di chuyển rất nhiều ở Hoa Kỳ. Một người đàn ông có thể lớn lên ở một vùng của đất nước, đi học đại học ở một nơi khác, tìm việc làm ở một nơi khác và kết hôn với một cô gái vẫn ở một vùng khác của đất nước. Đường sắt, máy bay, ô tô và đường cao tốc giúp việc đi lại ở Mỹ trở nên dễ dàng. Nhiều công ty lớn có chi nhánh ở các khu vực khác nhau của đất nước và chuyển công nhân của họ từ chi nhánh này sang chi nhánh khác. Yếu tố quan trọng thứ hai là phương tiện giao tiếp. Phim ảnh, đài phát thanh và truyền hình đều có cách nói chuẩn và hầu như tất cả mọi người ở Hoa Kỳ đều nghe được. Tuy nhiên, có một số từ và cách diễn đạt phổ biến hơn ở một phần của đất nước hơn ở những nơi khác. Trong suốt lịch sử của Hoa Kỳ, các nhóm lớn những người nhập cư đã đến để định cư và họ đưa đến những từ ngữ mới cho ngôn ngữ này.
