Is it OK that I use Eurocents?LadderLogic said:May the foreign-born put their two kopecks... sorry, cents in?
Well, I don't know who you're talking about, but I do know what the reason is. For us English is a foreign language and as such we do try harder to avoid mistakes. I have heard the same remark when talking to Germans. For me it's even easier, because I'm Flemish and it seems we have a natural talent for languages. This probably comes from the fact that in the past our little place has been conquered by many different nations: the French, the Austrians, The Germans, the Spanish and so on. I'm only lowly skilled in that area because I only speak four languages, which is normal over here for someone moderately skilled. Only those who speak over six different languages are considered polyglots over here. I personally know several people speaking eight or more languages.PLucas said:There is one Dutch speaker who frequents this forum whose posts show a better grasp of the English language than a lot of us English speakers, I won't name him, but I am sure most of you know who I am talking about.
That might be true, but I have problems if the messed-up text is another than my native language.Gerry said:Typoglycemia means we can read what we want to read.
