I just wanna know what is the difference between these two sentences. "My English is getting improved." "My English is improving." Are their meanings same or different.

  • Use My English is improving (becoming better). Getting improved or, better still being improved means that something is making it better. It would be more natural to say something like "Talking with native speakers is improving my English."

  • "My English is getting improved." Without context, this sounds substandard. In this sense "getting" = becoming, and "improved" looks either (i) like an adjective. Compare "My English is getting/becoming better.".or (ii) like a passive - Compare "My English is getting improved by constant practice." ++* "My English is improving."* Without context, this sounds good. It is the present continuous form of the verb "to improve."
