"Don't worry. I am wearing" is, as you may know, the famous line of the Japanese comedian who is now highly respected in the UK.
Watching the video clip, I busted in laugh for a long time.
When I watched the video, I thought that
This line is not allowed by TOEIC Part 1, however, it is allowed in the U.K.
(1) "wear" shows the state of wearing pants, so the progressive tense is not used.
(2) "wear" is a transitive verb, so the object "pants" is necessary.
If you don't pay attention to that, you lose the score of junior high and high school, Eiken, and TOEIC.

About this line, in my case,
- "Don't worry. I have worn the pants"
- "Don't worry. I wear the underwear"
- "Don't worry. I wear my pants"
It was about five years after I started the English diary that I began to worry about "which one would be best".
It took me five years, but I finally got to the point where I cared about transitive verbs, progressive forms, and the definite article.
However, I have never had any trouble with those issues.
by not only "in dairy conversation" but also "in business".
Therefore,
So I have claimed that "Don't worry. I am using (English)" again and again, and showed you ten policies about Japanese English.
-----
Not to get the score on English tests, but to use English, I continued that
(Step 1) Use bullshit English "every day" anyway → (Step 2) Return to basics only when I have trouble with bullshit → (Step 3) Continue to use bullshit English "every day" while gradually adding basics
as a "dairy English".
I repeat it, there is no problem thinking as
"Basics" are "forgotten items" that you return to retrieve when you need them.
"If you think "Basics are the most important for studying English" and spend your time to "Basic English" in your life, it is O.K. However you should not push it on others."
I want to push that on you.

After 10 years of my bullshit English diary, I have decided to join the paid plan of "grammary for Chrome" (currently in the process).
The $144 per year is a bit of a pain for me, but it's a small price to pay considering that they will be correcting my English diary every day.
My future English teacher will be IT technology & AI technology.
No more English teachers.
