Q:
Как сказать на Английском (британский вариант)? encourage oneself or myself in colloquial expression
A:
It says your a beginner but you are using words like oneself and colloquial ahahahahah made me laugh is all...
How would you say encourage oneself in an in formal way... Encourage is an expression of giving someone a guideline if help in order for them to complete something. So I'm not sure if encourage is the right word our looking for.
Example being I would encourage you on how to learn English by telling you how useful it would be and how it is used throughout the world. In not sure that you can encourage yourself.
Although you can motivate yourself which would be the same as encouraging someone but aimed at yourself.
Ahhh... But looking back at your question I again don't know what to say, you may have just worded it wrong or in just derping out..
I guess the only thing I can think of right this second is "I'm very motivated"

Q:
Would you teach me how to understand colloquial expressions ?
The sentence below is quoted from 'Of Mice and Men', given by Lennie, who is not so smart.
"Ain't nobody goin' to suppose no hurt to George."
"Ain't nobody goin' to talk no hurt to George."
As for the first words, I wonder if we can rewrite them like : "Nobody is going to suppose that there is (no) hurt to George."
Also, as for the second words, like : "Nobody is going to talk (no) hurt to George."
Both the sentences mean that Lennie has a strong will not to let anyone suppose/talk hurt to George, right ?
If it's right, why is the word 'ain't' at the top of the sentence ?
I think it's a question form.
Or, my rewritten version is wrong?

@popcha:
"ain't" is a negative word, and that means that it is in the "no" family....
It is at the top of the sentences emphasizing that NO one should hurt George!
But it is very grammatically incorrect!
