It was not wrong, but american. AFAIK in the UK 'practice' is the noun, 'practise' is the verb; but in the States 'practice' can be used for both.

Don't try too hard - search & quote instead

I mean it is easier to find a perfect sentence (and quote it) than to create it on your own. Right?

...but it is so miserable to explain a joke, even when it's so bad...

If you take any type of language exam be consequent. (spoken/written exam, ITK, Pitman, ICC, Trinity, Cambridge, etc.)

DO NOT MIX the words, idioms that have distinct spelling/pronunciation in British and American English.
It easily can deteriorate your exam result.
That's why I just learn and use the British spelling in normal conditions.

Btw. What kind of dictionary have you got? (apart from sztaki.hu)
(monolingual, bilingual)

I've got the monolingual Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, and I love it.

I usually speak and write in US English. Since the cultural domination of the United States it is widespread on the whole world. The most people understand it, you can call it International English too.
Anyway I like the old English-English. My favorite film in learning english is "Warlock". Redferne's speech is quite fantastic throughout the whole movie.

I have an old dictionary by Országh László(?), but I don't use it. Sztaki is much faster and better.

I use sztaki too, and i like it...
it is much more easier, and i find there the words of economy...

i like the english and american movies... if i'm in cinema, i never read the subtitle, i only listen what r they talking... i think the translation is worse than the real lyrics...

[Wyco]

SZTAKI really is very good, however the biggest (new) version of the Országh contains a lot of words, or more often phrases that you cannot find in SZTAKI.

...I'm just listening to what they are talking... - I would say so.

I like Hungarian subtitling if it is correct. It gives me the opportunity of simultaneous thinking.
And there are some movies with Hungarian dubbing that are really cool. E.g. The Lord of the Rings

SZTAKI is very good, really... or SZTAKI is very good, it really is...
I would say so, but yours might be also correct grammatically.

I was about to mention the same example. In fact it's so good (the hungarian translation, that is) that I can't really decide which is better. But it's true that this can be the exception rather than the rule.

I think both are good but i might be wrong
