- I get the impression that English is not your mother tongue and that your difficulties in expressing yourself stem from your lack of fluency. Is this correct? If so, then you don't need a writing exercise but to improve your language proficiency, especially your active vocabulary.Ben– Ben2023-08-28 10:36:53 +00:00Commented Aug 28, 2023 at 10:36
- @user482877 wel I'm indian. India was colonized and English is prevalent for the middle class. English was spoken in my home more frequently than Hindi. Now, I'm not sure if this would be subpar to the English learned in a western society. Also I've studied physics in the uk. Either way feel free to recommend an excercise that would help?More Anonymous– More Anonymous2023-08-28 10:46:52 +00:00Commented Aug 28, 2023 at 10:46
- My impression comes from the errors you make. This sentence is ungrammatical: "Are there any civilizations of written language being recorded and then the word "God" entering later in language?" Probably you wanted to ask: "Are there civilizations where the word 'God' has entered the language later than the oldest documents?" You seem to use more complicated constructions than necessary, as if you were writing around a lack of words, and sometimes your grammar is wrong. I don't know about Indian English and don't want to judge your linguistic proficiency, but that is my impression.Ben– Ben2023-08-28 12:06:31 +00:00Commented Aug 28, 2023 at 12:06
- And no, I cannot recommend any exercises for improving linguistic skill. Maybe ask at English Language Learners, if you think that you might want to improve your English.Ben– Ben2023-08-28 12:08:22 +00:00Commented Aug 28, 2023 at 12:08

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. creative-writing), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
