Ask questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful.

Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

To see translations of some frequently used phrases and sentences in other languages see Languages

How do Native speakers of English distinguish the two different meanings of the following sentence?

I'm an English teacher.

1)I'm a teacher who teaches English.
2)I'm a teacher from England.

And, how about this one?

I'm an English history teacher.

1)I'm a teacher that teaches English history (the history of England).

2)I'm a teacher from England, who teaches history (any history).
