Fealiks Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 erm yeah... I was getting to that.... English is the most common trade language, and, indeed, the international trade language, but Mandarian Chines is the most widely spoken language.

Peff Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 You guys mean galactic Basic! ... Right ? I know this is ^very^ off topic but Peff, you are from Norway and yous speak fluent english even though you are only 15, which is impressive. Sorry , I just had to get that off my chest It's not that impressive ? Or ?I have not learned anything in these tiny English lessons we've got at school through the years. Crappyish teachers.. When I was about.. 5-6 years old, I was walking around and saying Monkey island quotes. Everything from "I'm selling these fine leather jackets" too "A rubber chicken with a pulley in the middle... What possibly use could that have" I had no idea what I was saying... So. I guess I have learned most of the English via forums, games and talking to English people. Norwegian schools sucks. Which is exactly why I said it's the second most spoken language in the world This is from 1999 : Chinese* (937,132,000) Spanish (332,000,000) English (322,000,000) Bengali (189,000,000) Hindi/Urdu (182,000,000) Arabic* (174,950,000) Portuguese (170,000,000) Russian (170,000,000) Japanese (125,000,000) German (98,000,000) French* (79,572,000) English is crawling uppon the list ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alien426 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 You might. Norwegian schools sucks.German schools don't actually encourage you to learn stuff that interests you, either. I'd like to thank Amazon for providing an easy method of buying English books. I had decided to do a paper on an English book in 1995/96. My teacher had to contact a friend of his and have him send it over. Took some time. Amazon has enabled me to read a lot of great books in their original language.
