Do you think native English speakers are best at speaking the English language?Some experts （专家） believe that when it comes to successfully communicating in English,non-native speakers are actually easier to understand.
"Often you have a room full of people from different countries communicating in English and all understand each other.And when suddenly the American or British person walks into the room and nobody can understand them," Chia Susan Chong,an English culture expert,told the BBC.
Chong said this happens because non-native speakers communicate more carefully."English speakers,on the other hand,often talk too fast,slang（说俚语） and mention their countries that others may not understand." Chong said.
"As an Australian living in China,this is something that I keep in mind when talking to my Chinese colleagues.I\’m careful to speak slowly and use words.I know they will understand.But sometimes,we confuse（使困惑） each other.Once,I told my colleague,which is slang for"no problem".However,she thought I was calling her a drama queen（大惊小怪的人） and got upset.
But don\’t worry.Experts say that it\’s the native speakers\’ fault（错误） if they can\’t understand you,not yours. "English speakers with no other language never have the awareness（意识） to speak English internationally." English language teacher Dale Coulter told the BBC.
The best way to avoid any trouble might be to ask for some patience.If you find it difficult to understand an English speaker,don\’t be afraid to ask them to slow down and speak clearly.
