Languages - December 2006

I want to get familiar with British culture through its idioms; so I don't want to mix American idioms with the British ones. I cannot buy books published in Europe, so the only way ahead of me is Internet. And it should be a free website, as well. So who can introduce one to me? I would be most grateful.

THANKS,
Still Alone

It doesn't mind if there are some changes in it, i just need a french tekst that looks a little bit this way! thanks a lot!!



dear Kevin,

I'm in Italy now, it''s great! I'm with my mother. We went by bus, and we stay in a fantastic hotel! Tommorow we planned to go shopping and Friday we'll go out! When we go home by bus we'll probably go over Avignon, so i was wondering if you were home from 6 till 10 July. Can i stay with you during the festival in avignon? I hope to hear from you soon. Say hi to your parents!

Bye Bye,
Naomi

I get a lot of comments and criticism about my accent, but I came to this country way after I was 12 (then something happens in your brain and your way of speaking is formed). But do people care? I can't really understand why they are so concerned in making me feel bad about something I can't change. I would call them ignorants and tell them that it's not their problem or business in anyway, but my work position just doesn't allow me to do so. Any suggestions how could I retort without them running to my manager?

Не верь, не бойся, не проси

Разные ночи, разные люди
Хочет - не хочет, любит - не любит
Кто то отстанет, кто-то соскочит
Кто-то устанет и перехочет...

Кто-то закрутит провод на клеммы
Кто-то замутит новые темы
Кто-то понты, а кто-то маньяк
Кто-то как ты, кто-то как я...

Не зажигай и не гаси
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
И успокойся, и успокойся
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
Не верь, не бойся
Не верь, не бойся
Не верь, не бойся и не проси

Где-то есть много, то, чего мало
Но на дорогах будет облава
Кто-то рискнет, а кто-то не сможет
Кто-то поймет, но не поможет...

Кто-то уйдет, кто-то вернется
Кто-то найдет новое солнце
Кто-то в кусты, а кто-то в меня
Кто-то как ты, кто-то как я...

Не зажигай и не гаси
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
И успокойся, и успокойся
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
Не верь, не бойся
Не верь, не бойся
Не верь, не бойся и не проси

Не зажигай и не гаси
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
И успокойся, и успокойся
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
Не верь, не бойся, не проси
Не верь, не бойся
Не верь, не бойся
Не верь, не бойся и не проси

can you please write what language is this:

"Hallo,my naam is Grant. En ek ly aan die skuldgevoel van om nie 50 biljoen
fokken kettingbriewe wat aan my gestuur is deur mense wat skynbaar glo dat
as jy hulle aanstuur, 'n arm meisie in Zoeloeland met 'n tiet op haar
voorkop genoeg geld sal kan insamel om vir 'n operasie te gaan en dit te
verwyder voor haar rooinek-ouers haar verkoop aan 'n rondreisende sirkus.
"

and please translate some sentences if you could
