The difference between presention and spoken English

The difference between presention and spoken English

The difference betwee presention and spoken English is things like grammar! In a class, you will find out how things should be written down, but you will often say things in a very different way. It does not matter which country you are from - you must be aware that what is taught in lessons is not the same as speaking the language! You will be taught what the correct way of saying something is, but not necessarily what people say in normal conversations, for example the correct word is Television, but we say "telly" or "t.v.". We do not say 'would you like a cup of coffee?' - we just say 'do you want a coffee?' - or even just 'coffee?'!!
