Yeah, I felt the same when I first started to talk with English native speakers!It's really frustrating - especially for those like us "chiaccheroni" (chatties) - being unable to express our thoughts!!You know, I was just thinking to start a thread in Italian to let people talk and learn new things ... would it work?
