Thanks. 6th grade and english is your native language? I guess you are around 13 years old? I am 32 and started to learn english when I was 13. So I should have a little more experience than you have :wink: To be honest: I use english many times a day - not only here :wink: but in my job. I could probably describe a whole engine in english but my financial english is pretty poor :cry:

I can openly say that at times non-native English speakers may have better spelling/grammar than myself. Embarassing really!
Me too. But I try my best ... sometimes. Have you tried german? Thats my first language but i have heard after chinese it must be the hardest language to learn for a foreigner. I noticed that we do not talk strict to the rules of that language. Best example would be past/present perfect. We use the present perfect more often than we should ... instead of using simple past :lol

Her grammar and english knowledge was really good. But forget about her english speaking. If you dont like to hear Arnold Schwarzenegger speaking english you would love to hear a sentence from him after you heard her. Sounded like a russian having no clue how to say those words.
Thats probably because she is female ? I sometimes do not understand my wife !

Ich finde Deutsch gar nicht schwierig zu sein. Ich bin Kalifornier und mir ist Franzoesisch bei Aussprache schlimmer und Spanisch beim intelligenten Schreiben extrem schwierig. Deutsch ist nicht so uebel. Dativ, Akusativ, Nominativ, ja ja, das verwirt, aber so schlimm ist es nicht. Lang lebe FSV Mainz 05!THAT'S RIGHT! WE KNOW GERMAN AT PEDESTRIAN WINGS. How un-pedestrian :wink:
