Hi!
English writing isn't so easy. I was learning in Speak Up school and during tests I had the worst results in writing. Very good topic.
Enjoy

So glad to see that my idea has taken off and is picking up some steam!

Here's a question. I was thinking that on one hand, maybe it would be nice if we would correct each other. On the other hand, I don't want to come in here and start quoting people's errors, point them out and then have people be disinterested in writing in English solely because of the nitpicking of their language errors. So what would you guys rather do? Have us, who know the language on a rather more advanced level, politely quote and fix the language (be it grammar or spelling) mistakes or let them go?

[Diamen23]

Ok, Magnum, we will correct your errors if you really want to

[Aker]

Magnum for me it is really good idea, every1 should still raise your english level

[Magnum]

Sounds good Damien!

I will only say: we will say what time we will tell

[Diamen23]

Sounds good Damien!

yep, first fail. My nick is different

Magnum, I thought that out and I'm negative. No correcting here, we've got people who are still ashamed of writing in english, I don't think correcting - and, c'mon, there'll be a lot of that - will help them. If one wants to know about his mistakes, then let him ask for it.

Speaking of that, I want to know about my errors. Magnum, I'm counting on You I've got no problem with writing here, but I'm aware of tons of mistakes I'm commiting. When You realise, how much You have to correct, that idea dies naturally

Christ, my head hurts, I got a fucking hangover.

"I've got the worst hangover ever
I'm crawling to the bathroom again
It hurts so bad that I'm never gonna drink again
I've got the worst hangover ever
I'm rolling back and forth on the bed
I'm worked so bad that I'm never gonna drink again"

That's actually kinda what I thought would be the best - if somebody would like to be corrected, he/she (yes, I'm counting on futbolowa to be active here!) can tell us here - if not, everything will be fine!

fought

fought is a past sente of fighting, as in a firefight, or fighting with fists etc. Here you should have said "thought", as past tense of "think" Otherwise, I don't see anything here that's seriously wrong, "negative" sounds a bit awkward, you could just say "I'm against it," but whether it's an actual error - I don't know.

One thing I can tell all of you is that some of you here probably know English grammar better than I do. Since I left Poland, I haven't been really taught English grammar. I have serious doubts about my ability to pass some of the advanced English exams that are out there. I am 90% fluent and I have an accent still (though it isn't dramatic), but when it comes to grammar and proper tense usage, I'm probably not that great.

Same here Jacek, please make sure you don't miss your flight from Budapest to Brussels in June, it'll be terrifying to be alone in Brussels otherwise

I really like and respect you Doctore, but please don't come to this thread with a blasphemy .

This topic is simply retarded, this is polish forum and we should communicate in our native language...

[Magnum]

If one topic out of 3992 is devoted to polishing up our English skills, does it really make that much of a difference?

[MazurXIII]

But rlly, whats the fucking purpose? Oh i can speak english, hello world, look how fabulous i am! Rlly?
