    English is apparently one of the most difficult languages to learn?

    Everyone says that about their native language.

    It's all relative.

    I tried to convince my year 5 teacher that pneumonia did not start with a P. I lost that argument.

    Well, if the English didn't feel the need to take over the whole world years ago then we wouldn't have this problem, now would we?!

    everyone tried to take over the world... ;)

    well, OK, the English, Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese did...
    and...anyone else ? suppose you could say the Danes (lumping together Denmark, Sweden, Norway 'cause i don't know any better, sorry :o) ) tried before that, so for some reason the English were at the right place at the right time...

    so 'English' is currently the most spoken/learnt language, or is it ? should we all be learning Spanish ? Chinese/Mandarin ? ... Esperanto ?

    feck the Gaelic... :D
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

    Silent letters enrich our language Duncan.
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"

    Hey Alanis it'd be ironic if i was the World Memory Champion and indeed 'dumb'... but i'm smart and ehhhh i forget the other.


    what brings these lice to these forums?
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
