Looking for a learning partner

I want to practice my English speaking skills with someone but I don't have anyone near me with whom I can practice. Also I'm a little hesitant as I have never spoke to anyone in English. So if anyone wants to practice HEY we can do that, dms are open

Wrote some fun facts about my country. Can you see if it sounds natural?

Under the South Korean Constitution, North Koreans are considered South Korean citizens. So anyone who escapes from North Korea is automatically given South Korean citizenship. Because they are considered South Korean, they don't have to go through processes that foreigners must go through, such as refugee screening or naturalization process. Even if someone is found to be a spy from North Korea, they are severely punished under South Korean laws, but their nationality is not revoked, nor are they deported. Does this sound natural?

What purpose does “the best part” here serve?

What purpose does “the best part” here serve?

I could think of one explanation: To be sarcastic, and to emphasize on the long hours of losing a child, which is not the best but the worst. Can someone explain this to me? A few more made-up sentences using the same expression would be extremely appreciated. And for those of you who recognized the names but not the plot, this is a Harry Potter fanfic 😆

is the word “Traipsing” commonly used?

learned this word from a TV show, but it was from an old witch's line, so I'm not sure if it sounds strange or outdated in real life Thanks in advance!(btw is it natural to say 'thanks in advance' in this situation?)

Does this sentence make actual sense? (That "than someone else" part looks unnatural)

Fiancé" vs "Fiancée: Who's Who?

As a non-native speaker, I always thought "fiancé" was for a guy and "fiancée" for a girl. But now I keep seeing "fiancée" used for both! Is this a new trend or have I been living under a rock? Should I stick to the classic rules, or is it all fair game now?

"You are looking sad" and "You look sad"

My teacher said that "You look sad" is correct and "You are looking sad" is incorrect, but for "You are looking tired," she said that it is correct. I'm quite confused why "You are looking sad" is incorrect. Is "You are looking sad" spoken English, or is it not? Is it grammatically correct?
