Take a break
Let's take a break, don't be too stressed.
Here folks, this is the resting point and at the same time a learning while enjoying time.
Mind your English...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QIW4GLK22k
This comedy has given a feature of world Englishes in a broad sense.
Different accents and even sometimes lexical borrowing or in simple term word borrowing from other languages may occur too. The videos have subtitles and it is very easy for you to understand what is being said by all the actors.
Do try to focus the way Mr.Brown speaks. His accent and pronunciation is close to the Standard English in the London area, therefore it is a very good practice for you to listen and get used to it.
The second link here takes you another journey to the funny world of learning English with Mr.Brown.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19uZOK0lQgg
Please sit back and enjoy
