Grammar
Could you please teach me?
Hi. I made some sentences meant for my diary. I would like for you to point out any mistakes.
"I sometimes write something in English on Twitter, of course, they have the character limit. I often feel like one word in English needs more letters to type than my native language word does. In most cases, it’s not a problem for me, but even though I try not to use abbreviations in my English writings, the limit would be good enough to discourage me only if I want to set in a frame."
Thank you.

Fine! Those corrections are all good grammar, Safrar. However, the ending needs to be simpler and clearer:

Thank you for your advice, Mister Micawber! I would like to ask one more question. Can I replace "one word in English" with "one English word" or "an English word" ?
