Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Begin"
The meaning of "Begin" in various phrases and sentences
Q:
Co znaczy To begin with?
A:
The overall meaning of the sentence is "The dryer has never worked."
"To begin with" is used to connect that statement to the broader context of the conversation. It's like "from the beginning until now, it has never worked." It's a bit tricky to understand. I'll try to give some examples:
*Person A comes to Person B's house and tries to use their microwave to heat up a cup of tea. When they try to use it, it shuts down in the middle of heating the drink*
Person A: I'm so sorry! I think I broke your microwave!
Person B: Don't worry! That thing's never worked properly to begin with. I can't get it to heat things for more than 30 seconds. I think I should buy a new one."

Q:
Jaka jest różnica między begin i start ?
A:
Start is very similar in meaning to begin and in most cases can be used interchangeably (as synonyms). However, this is not always the case!
If you are talking about the status of (or act involving) a machine, then you normally should use "start" not "begin".
For example, "the car won't start" is correct but "the car won't begin" is incorrect and "how do you start the engine?" is correct but "how do you begin the engine?" is incorrect.
There are some other rarer cases where you also should not use "begin" like when you're talking about "starting a new company" (not "beginning a new company").
One last difference is that "start" is both a verb and a noun (e.g. "please start the machine" and "it was a very close race at the start"). "Begin" can only be used as a verb. The noun form of "begin" is "beginning" (e.g. "He went to Chile at the beginning of March").

Q:
How should we begin to practice English?
A:
Learn the pronunciation of each letter in the alphabet, then learn basic words and grammar. Once you have basic grammar down you can start learning how to form more complicated sentences and higher vocabulary. To practice speaking and listening, I recommend doing language exchange with a English native speaker, this will also help improve your accent and give you someone to ask all your language questions to. If language exchange does interest you, I want to learn Thai so I could do one with you and help you learn English.
