It has been quiet for a very looong time here

How are you spending your holiday?

(Puluś, my english expert

: Does 'spend' has a gerund form? Did I write it in a good way?)

Pulek · Wysłany: 22:56:42 14-07-08 Temat postu:

According to me... it sounds ok. However, if you wrote it in either present perfect simple or continuous or present continuous, you would slightly change the meaning. And don't call me an expert- maybe in a near future

I have to deserve on being YOUR expert so let me work on it

Bachelor is closer and closer

I watch films, tv shows... and sleep till 11 a.m

How about you? Are you bored or have a good time?

It has. You can say "spending"- it's correct

Anua · Wysłany: 23:03:56 14-07-08 Temat postu:

I always have problems with perfect tenses

However I try to learn on my mistakes. But it's quite difficult

Ow Jesus, Puluś, you're much better in english than I am so you're my expert

'Bachelor'? What does it mean?

Don't say it, I'm sooo booored like 'I've never been! I wake up at 12-13 every morning, watch films or 'Friends'

and surf in internet of course

hahah I'm still learning... No gain without pain.... Don't worry about it. I've learned a lot during the first year. You know how our system of education looks... There's no time for explaining grammatical english structures.... We have many subjects which are simply waste of time... And teachers who are not educated enough

For me the greatest obstacle in learning foreign languages is "native language interference" - which means that, your native tongue bothers another language to be learnt. it really pisses me off when can't express myself in another language but polish!

remember that even people who have got PhD in English Philology make mistakes... silly mistakes...

haha does it mean that I will never learn the differences of the perfect tenses?

great

You're right. Our teachers are suck

It pisses me off, that I had to teach english my teacher

That's funny that they don't use all of these grammar in England

You will

You're better than I was at your age. Really. Maybe you'll change your mind? how about studying English Philology?

hahahaha once I asked a Brit "Have you ever used past perfect continuous tense?" And he hesitated over it and asked: "Well.... maybe once... why?"

I burst on laughing at once then

Thank you

You know I wanna study Law

I love English but not at all!

My friend was in England a few years ago to visit his brother. And he says that he understood everything, because they were using only Present Simple/Continous, Perfect Simple, Past Simple and Future Simple

they are very simple people

Pulek · Wysłany: 23:37:20 14-07-08 Temat postu:

Why don't you study English and Law ?

That's silly but.... they don't use maybe half of tenses they know

Better educated people use more sophisticated vocabulary and variety of tenses because it shows their status. especially during an asembly or important meetings etc..

Law studies are really difficult and hard and English either. So when would I sleep?

My uncle for example is English and he has strange accent, not that which we can hear on TV

he says like... ordinary people

Pulek · Wysłany: 10:17:39 15-07-08 Temat postu:

Well... why don't you start for instance english later?

I know they're hard... I heard that when you study law, you have to learn by heart a lot of books. Is that true?

I love English and I want to learn it, but not study

I don't have to be English philologist. I would rather be Polish philologist, seriously

Polish is a beautiful language and it would be wonderful if I used sophisticated vocabulary, correct grammar and orthography

What do you mean by saying 'learn by heart'? That I will have to love learning all of these books?

Mateusz · Wysłany: 15:31:04 15-07-08 Temat postu:

Oh, I love phrase "to learn by heart"

I don't know what to say, my English sucks

Anua · Wysłany: 15:53:20 15-07-08 Temat postu:

I've just known what means 'to learn by heart'

I'd never think that it is 'uczyć się na pamięć'

Pulek you're right. If you study Law you have to learn by heart many books. My home-english teacher study law

Mati don't say that. You're really good in English but (I think) you are ashamed

Mateusz · Wysłany: 16:02:47 15-07-08 Temat postu:

I couldn't study law. I hate history.
I wish I could know English better

You see, I still have problems with 'wishes'

you're only 16-17 years old so you have lots of time to learn it

don't worry
