The subject of something such as a conversation, letter, or book is the thing that is being discussed or written about

- from google dictionary...

After looking up some different dictionaries, I guess what it means

"invention is any manner of new manufacture that discusses letters patents." after all.

Sorry, I think I missed putting a verb in the example above.

Anyway, I think I got what it really means now.

I should've looked at the meanings more carefully, because it was in the dictionary after all.

Well, I wished I could study at the primary school since all the basics are taught there.

I don't think that I am learning English slowly just because I've reached certain age at which I won't be able to master a language like native speakers, I think it's because I am missing a lot of things in between(?) just like a poorly built house.

So I guess only place you could learn English to become a native speaker with a lot fun is primary school. Just like Mary poppin said in the movie, " You have to find fun(?) when you do something."

I wish to invent such an environment for grown people one day, even though, it may be very difficult as older you become you've a lot of other stuff to take care.

Anyway, have a lovely day everyone!
