In general, it is not difficult to learn to use Internet services. But although Internet services are 
rather easy to use, you will have considerable difficulties if you are not familiar with English. In fact, a 
good knowledge of English is one of the most important aspects that helps you use the Internet. 
Learning to use a new Internet service may take a few hours, a few days or some weeks, but it 
takes years to learn a language so that you can use it fluently and confidently. Of course, when you

should be good enough to understand commonly used words and to know what to do on the Internet.
