There are many tips in English to learn from the native speakers. In Nigeria, it is a common question to ask people ''How was your night'' it all changed the day I asked a Briton how ''was your night" he was confused, he eventually explained what it mean to asked someone such question. Your tips are helpful, it make more sense living in native English speaking countries.
