What shall I do when making mistakes in leaning English?
In learning a foreign language, we should bear in mind that
it is nothing but natural to make mistakes, though it is a process full of twists and turns.
In learning a foreign language, we are constantly trying to express things beyond our language capacity, leading to a variety of mistakes. In learning vocabulary, for example, we may make mistakes of over-extension, such as applying the word cat to all four-legged animals. Or we make mistakes of under-extension, such as using cat only for their cat at home, as if it were a name. In fact, making such mistakes is quite normal, but we may feel uncomfortable because we think that we are losing face.
