:roll: Ain't that the truth.
I know that Australian-English used to basically be normal English. Thank fuck we stopped using the word and spelling of Gaol, seems a bit too ironic. Now we just call it prison, like normal people.

I still call it Jail :D
Anywho, born in Australia, speak Aussie English.
Dads side is Italian (speaks italian/english) and mum was born in Sudan (migrated there from the old Seria) (speaks arabic/english).
Quite a mix imo. :rolleyes:

I agree with this - considering our use of english, it's very . . . improper, compared to the british dialect.
. . . and then there's American Southern English - which I kinda condiser a language unto itself. I'm fairly fluent in that . . .

When you use a modal verb, doesn't the infinitive go after complements :
Ich kann so gut die Deutsch lesen und schreiben, wie einen klein Kind. ?
Also, french cause i'm from Québec, English & some german

English, Greek, and Spanish.
Hello, Yasu, and hola.
I also know the Java language.:cool:
public static void main (String[] args)
{
int sum = 0, value, count = 0;
double average;
system.out.print ("Enter an Interger (0 to quite): ");
value = Keyboard.readInt
ah to lazy to write the rest, but you get the idea:)
I also plan on learning Japanese and the Russian Languages.

I may not have gotten it right, but that changes the meaning of the original sentence. I meant "I can write and read as good as a little child." As evidenced by my gross grammatical errors. :laugh: Where is W1zzard to help me with my German?
It might be. Ich kann so gut wie einen klein kind lesen und schreiben.

what exactly do you consider bad english? Round these parts, many people consider "bad english" as southern.
