▶The biggest difference between my first language and English◀

My first language is Korean and there are several differences between Korean and English. The biggest difference is word order. For example, word order of English is subject, verb, and then object. On the other hand, word order of Korean is subject, object, and verb. Unlike English, always verb comes at the end of the sentences. So when I write something in English, I have to think and adjust different word order system. In addition, Koreans barely use passive so it takes few time to change verb form in my head. Pronunciation is quite different as well. Korean doesn’t have ‘R’ or ‘F’ or ’TH’ sounds so I always get confused when I say ‘B’ or ‘V’, ‘P’ or ‘F’, ‘TH’ or ‘S’ and ‘R’ or ‘L’. For instance, I was supposed to say ‘thousand’ but I sometimes said ‘sousand’ something like that.
