Is that how you would say in German "I hope everything is good": "Ich hoffe bei dir ist alles gut."?

i know you can say "ich hoffe, dir geht es gut." but does the phrase above work as well or is it incorrect?

I've always wanted to learn Norweigan or Finnish. Since I've been listening to more and more foreign music, I've wanted to become more serious about it.

Are there any good (preferably free) online sources for these? I don't mean AltaVista Babel Fish, either... I mean serious, step-by-step "courses."

I know the improper use and terrible spelling of English has been going on for ages now but it seems to be getting worse.
For example, I just came across a comment on a YouTube video saying: "wot a awesome song am addicted tu it alreadii "
More and more people are beginning to write like that.
Shouldn't something be done?

By the way, don't blame it on young people, I'm 16 and I don't write like that and neither do any of my friends.

Hi I'm Italian and I'd love to be able to speak Ebonics (American Black English). I know almost all the features of this dialect but there's something that ain't clear to me:
- I know that in Ebonics words like "for", "sure" and "before" are pronounced "fou", "shou" and "bi'fou", but why I've always heard saying "more" like "mo" (just without the "r", like English people do). Shouldn't it be "mou" (with the final u)?
- How do they pronounce "au"? For example, in words like "down", "town" and "now" they pronounce the "a" like the "a" in "cat", but why do they pronounce "abaat" for "about" and "aa" for "out" and "our"? Is there a rule in these cases?
