Thank you! It is heartening to hear this from a native speaker. Phrasal verbs are… a pain. “Burning up” pretty much is “burning down”? Oh, the list is long.
And certainly you have a point, devoting time and money may clearly help vigorously push the upward trend for longer, but I was just talking about my experience, those relatively effortless early moments. In any event, no matter how much you apply, I think it’s hard to argue that it’s quite rare to find foreigners that moved to a country as adults and sound truly native, and I don’t believe it’s due to half-hearted dedication.
I was 17 years old when I arrived in the US, and after half a year there I could almost sense getting better by the day, it was an extremely exciting experience. My very naive illusion, however, was that this progress would stay linear until I caught up with the natives, but it unsurprisingly plateaued, in particular when it came to my accent and pronunciation. But again, that first half year felt amazing!
This extension can read and alter webpages you visit and see your browsing history on all websites.
This includes sensitive information from webpages, including passwords, phone numbers, and credit cards.
The whole idea sounds great, even reasonably priced but... having to trust another company on all that seems too risky. They should offer a standalone browser instead of a Safari extension, so that the user can easily skip it when dealing with sensitive data.
I’m used to visiting the HTML standard, I think it’s quite friendly considering how much it has grown… CSS2 was still doable for me, but I find the current mesh of CSS standards completely impenetrable at this point. And with JavaScript plus the DOM… yeah, I’ll take MDN as almost primary, an authoritative encyclopedia for web development.
