Oh, it sounds right.
OK. Thanks, Buntaro.
One of the parts I was not confident with was "to me". Does "a challenge for me" sound off?
Another is "in English". Can you also say "fluent at English"?
When I write English, I'm always at a loss which word to use, whether to put an article or not, and so on...
Oh, really? I didn't know you can say "He is fluent in speaking in...". Thank you for the information.I have heard many people say "He is fluent in speaking in English".
Joadbres, what do you think of Buntaro's sentence "Becoming fluent in English in a year is going to be a big challenge for me"? Would it be good for my students?
How about the one without "for me", that is, "Becoming fluent in English in a year is a big challenge"? I suppose it would sound right because it is a general statement.
I didn't know you can say "He is fluent in speaking in..."
I agree. Either"He is fluent in speaking in English" does not sound right.
I think you can also say:The examples I like are:
He's fluent in English. (ok)
He speaks English fluently. (best two of the four)
He can speak English fluently (best two of the four)
His English is fluent. (least of the four)
The sentence is OK, but is not so worthwhile for teaching English, I think. Why, exactly, do you want to use a sentence like this?
How about "He is fluent in talking in English"?
He speaks fluent English.
He can speak fluent English.
(1) This project was quite a challenge for me.
(2) Landing in such a stormy weather was quite a challenge.
(3) Poverty is a significant challenge we face here in this country today.
I agree. Either
He is fluent in speaking English
or just
He is fluent in English
are natural speech imo.
I have heard "He is fluent in speaking in English" many times.
