Hello again Sciffix, I must admit that I am one of those who worried about some video games-- the violent ones.

I am a female of course and dislike many violent things--but if those games can be educational in other ways then that is good I can see.

anyway-- persevere as you are doing and -interaction on forums also should be good.

Of course, you can! I have played Zelda Ocarina of Time too and a lot of Nintendo 64 games. And you, not played Zelda?

This is a good game to learn, is very hard to find all the gold skulltulas(the golden spiders).

I think RPGs are one of the best kind of games to learn English or any other language, they usually have many dialogues and good stories.

Thank you! That is my favorite compliment to get :) Now you'll all be watching out for my posts looking to spot a mistake in my writing x) But yeah, I did work really hard to master English as a first language, so the fact that you can't tell it actually isn't makes me so damn proud of myself. :D

As for your question regarding which method works best when learning a new language, I'd say taking part in an online forum is really helpful. But of course, the best thing to do would be to go spend some time living abroad in whatever country the language you're learning is spoken. Sure thing.

Right, you shouldn't be so damn proud.

Nothing wrong with that sentence.

the fact that you can't tell it actually isn't > works as a subject for this sentence.

makes (main verb) me so damn proud of myself > is the predicate.

It's like saying:

this makes me so damn proud of myself.

this = the fact that you can't tell it actually isn't.

:cool:

Try again. :ywave:

learning English
 

It's a well-known method of learning the language in some specialized schools and universities.

I'm a native English speaker from England. I think it's a shame there isn't much of an emphasis on foreign languages here... but since people think English is the universal language, I guess it's less important here?

Oh and Suki's English is perfect, that sentence is fine.

Her English is better than a lot of people from here.

Suki deserve to feel proud of her mastery of the English Language.

So I still applaud all those who do try to study any language.

Sign language for the deaf should also be taught every where so that the people who are deaf can more easily communicate with others.

But even in sign language it varies such a lot also.

Our schools used to have international exchanges-- with Germany and France in particular. I do not know if that is still the case.

I do feel that here in the UK we need to be encouraged and taught other languages from very young.


I once did tackle Swedish because I had some Swedish friends, but their command of English language is usually first class.

Unless one uses a language on a regular basis-- its to easy to forget it.

I admire everyone here who is studying. KUDO's to them all.

speakers
 

Shame, you said...why? Look, most of members of JF, except the tiniest minority, are native English speakers.

I meant it's a shame that in England not many people care about learning a foreign language. Just because a few native English speakers are here doesn't mean it's representative of the general population of England. (Most native English speakers here are from America anyway.)
