Hmmm so let's see...
English is my only non native-language that I'm capable of (besides Latin ). Although it has been quite some time since I really _used_ it in a conversation or even on a discussion board like this one here. So I hope I don't make too many mistakes at the beginning of renewing my skills. I will get back to my old level, promised
I learned English from 5th grade right through the end of school and also wrote an exam in the Abitur in English. It was one of my performance-courses (to translate it literally ). Unfortunately I had many teachers that were real ... mh ... dorks Suspicious little people, with an English not mightier than that of a 5th-grader But as I read much English literature in this time, and actively took part in the discussions initiated in the courses, I think, I got to a pretty nice level of school-English.
There was no student-exchange with England, so we went sightseeing to London. Great. But not what I hoped for.
About a year ago I traveled to the US for a week, Las Vegas I didn't talk much there either; just one time, when I was asked how old I were ... I had to leave the Casino immediately *grrr*
But yeah... not too much left active knowledge here, although I've got English education for eight years Hope, we have some fun
BTW does anyone wath Saturday Night Life with Will Ferrell et al. ?
