Only English

[Tomasz]

Good morning!

What do you think about topic where we will use only English? It could be something like "Pogawędki" but in English language? Are you on?

[ktośtam]

Waarom niet. Maar ik denk dat Eugeniusz zou liever om te schrijven in het Duitse taal.
Of misschien een multilingual topic is een goede idee?

[Tomasz]

I understand 5 words "Waarom niet.". It means "Why not?". And... Eugeniusz means Eugeniusz and "multilingual topic means" multilingual topic

Unfortunately, I and probably the other don''t understand rest of your statement. I think that topics should be limited for only one language.

[ktośtam]

Sure Tomasz. My post in Dutch was only a joke
By the way - I think it is very good idea. It will help some of us to increase or to keep the knowledge of English language on certain level.
For me it will be a very good exercise, because since I have switched to using only Dutch my skills in English became very poor

[Tomasz]

I was sure that it was Dutch

Yes, it is a mainly goal - improve our skills in English.
I''m listening BBC radio 2 now... What are you doing now?

[ichito]

OK...it''s a good idea but we have to still remember that this thread is only "training room". We are Polish forum and have only one official language in it. The same have e.g. Wilders''s forum...English is official and necesary to cumunicate between each other...one exeption is French forum of Look''n''Stop.

I''m working...unfortunately
See you...

[ktośtam]

I am reading some other security forums - English ones
It was much easier when I was working in English speaking enviroment 2 years ago - I was Rectification Engineer at RICOH.
I was surrounded by native English speakers from UK, I was sending and recieving emails from factory in UK (some of them were full of technical words), I was following some technical trainings - all in English. But now I'' ve forgot a lot

[Tomasz]

Why did you change English environment for Dutch environment?

[ktośtam]

I''ve quit my job at RICOH.

[Tomasz]

I know... but why? and what is RICOH?

[ktośtam]

Really you don''t know RICOH? ->

I had my reasons, so I''ve quit

[Tomasz]

I really didn''t know

Ok.

I''m baking a bread now. And I''m still listening Radio BBC 2

Which language do you more like? Dutch or English? Why?

[ktośtam]

I am living in The Netherlands, so it is more natural to speak, read and write Dutch. And I pretty like it. At the begin I though that Dutch is very difficult, but it is not

[Tomasz]

I hate Germanic family of language ....

What do you think what is more important in learning language ... grammar or using language by listening and talking?

[ktośtam]

Definitely using language.

[Tomasz]

Nice!

I hate grammar, but I try to think about it when I say something.

Did you know that word "guy" derive from Guy Fawkes ?

EDIT

You guys make me sad... Nobody want to talk with me...

How are you today?

[ichito]

Also in office...I''m still working what obvious is normal

[ktośtam]

Still at home, but almost ready to leave :/

[preter]

Hey!
I think it''s very good idea too, because I don''t have too many occasions to speaking for English. Last time I used English when I wrote to suuport of Agnitum a few weeks ago, but I have to remark that my English is not perfect.

[ktośtam]

Don''t you worry. My English is also very poor, but this is why we are going to keep this topic alive - to exercise
