Thanks for using my 'toss brah this was literally made for /r9k/. Listen to this guy
>>83252 22 isn't that old im saying this as someone younger than you I don't think it's over till you turn 30. It's never too late to start, sure you wasted time but what can you do now? All you can do is move forward and at 22 I don't think it's too late to start living at all, you can definitely still change your life

can you write a paragraph without the secondary program?

>>83252>>83256I appreciate the encouragement. I have tried to self-improve since I were 16, but it’s hard to improve your social skills when you have nobody to talk to. If had the education I would try to get a job in a place with people my own age, but if you can’t do basic math and writing it’s hard not to embarrass yourself, let alone find a job or even get further educated.
>>83257Not without a lot of typos and misplaced commas.

>>83250 (OP)>>83259If you can't write a paragraph without a autism aids and colorful heckin communication buttons aspiemashing them together to get your live-in caretaker to get your lowfunctioning-ass KFC and a pumpkin-spice latte, then there's probably a lot more wrong than 'bro my childhood bro, bro le internets did this to mi ou algo' you might be genuinely retarded instead.

>>83264I have gotten my IQ checked nothing impressive but not retarded either, the same as my peers. My teachers and parents just didn’t really care, so I spent all my time in school daydreaming about video games instead of learning.
In the first grade my teachers bullied me, so I didn’t want to have anything to do with school.

>>83267sure, that sucks and all. But if my ESL ass can learn english through pirated james bond movies and imageboards I'm sure you can too.

>>83271I’m ESL as well. I learned English from video games and movies too, but it’s the grammar that’s bothering me, regrettably, in my own language as well.

>>83272I never really thought about grammar, but I don't have any problems with my native language either which probably helps.
Probably the fault of your parents, I've heard acquiring other languages is more difficult if you struggle with your mother tongue.
The first couple of years are the most important for learning to speak, if you don't get the tenses by then there's nothing school can fix.

>>83275It's 100% over for languagecels. If momma just neglected you it's fucking over.

you can try to still learn languages after, but if you don't have a good grasp on your mother tongue its certainly hard.
There were a bunch of kids raised by chimps o algo that recovered their ability to speak in their teens. I don't know exactly when that becomes impossible, maybe 21-24.
You'd also have to learn the language in a different way because you dont have a basis to work off of.

>>83278But i would probably learn it if had someone to teach me it. It’s just so embarrassing
№83280[Quote]
>>83278Yeah but its grammar too, you just said that here
>>83272You're supposed to just get it by age 5 or 6 (normally)
Spelling can be brute-forced easily. Just type the word into google translate, hit that lil speaker button and write it down 6 gorillion times and say it out loud.
When I was little I'd decompose more complicated english words into smaller ones I already understood, but that probably did jack shit tbh.

Buy a bunch of solid grammar books that cover everything from A1 to C2. Write as much as you can and read constantly. Get a Kindle and mark every complicated word - it has a great flashcard feature that you can use. If you are under 25 your brain is still malleable. Use that neuroplasticity while you still can. Your parents neglected you and that sucks but there is no time to waste. Learn the language because it is EXTREMELY important. Do not think it is over. If you fuck up you can always kill yourself later. Right now you have to just focus on learning.

Do things in your life. Like going to gym, read books, play an instrument, fishing, cooking, learn programming. Hobbies will make a value in your living. For friends and a girlfriend, just go outside. Even you if couldn't find one, fresh air is always good.

Same but I’ve decided to sell my life to ZOG before I become you and hopefully find another job after serving (I picked a skill transferable trade)

Look into education/job programs in your area, at least get started with taking care of yourself

Hey OP, I used to struggle with grammar too. A lot of the time it simply comes from not having spent much time using the language. If you spend a lot of time gaming or just being online without writing or reading much, it is easy to fall behind. Like any other skill, it improves with practice. The more you read, write, and communicate, the more natural it becomes.
Also remember that language is something created and used by people. It is not some mysterious talent that only a few are born with. Because it is a manmade system, it follows patterns and rules that can be learned step by step. Millions of people learn new languages every year, and many reach very high levels like C2 even later in life.
