I am trying to think of names of cities or places that are also girls names...and boys names too I guess, though I cant think of any of those. So far I have Sydney, Georgia and Paris. Can you think of any more??

Even college graduates do this! I have seen Amazon book reviews written by people who say they have doctorates that have bad grammar! What is wrong with this?

Many people say that computer spellcheckers have taken away our knowledge of spelling. Does this sound true?

My heart
My soul
My life
It is all yours.

它 是 你 的.
它 都 是 你 的.
它 完 全 是 你 的.

How do you say in Chinese "It is all yours"?

It's obvious that some people aren't native English-speakers. It's not like Yahoo has an "only native speakers" policy. If they're saying things like "wuz" instead of "was" and stuff like that, that's a different story. But if it's obvious that they're struggling a little bit with the language, cut them a break! Geez! Help them out a little instead! Everyone always says "If you live in America, speak English." How do you expect them to do that if people are only going to pick on them, insult them, and make them self-concious??

How many people on here have tried learning a foreign language in school or whatever? Not always the easiest thing ever. How would you like it if you went to another country and all people told you was "speak proper Spanish/French/etc!"? You'd be a little upset, wouldn't you?

I'm looking for someone who can teach me German in the Augusta, Georgia or North Augusta, SC area. I did a quick search online but I couldn't find anything. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'd like to meet for a few hours per day, preferably with someone who has experience teaching languages.

I live in the United States and I speak English quite fluently, but I have a mild accent (my native language is Spanish). I feel self-conscious about my accent.

For English-speaking people, do you like or dislike foreign accents? Should I try to get rid of it?

Thanks!

Je voudrais poser une question en français à propos des français précisément. J'ai du mal à trouver des questions aussi bien que les réponses que les autres ont pourvues dans la langue. Est-ce que c'est un site pour l'anglais seulement? Je voudrais m'addresser aux français en particulier au sujet de la mentalité française et leurs sentiments aux américains. Je m'intérèsse à l'animosité censée entre la France et les États-Unis. Les langues étrangères ne sont-ils plus permises sur ce site?

Je n'ai pas un dent contre les français. Je ne suis pas américain(e).
