nice idea! i know i'm not english, but should there be any communication problems you can always ask me

ace idea!! i need loads of help on my English...no seriously!

its not ,,ask'' its ,,arsk''!!!

what the...? O.o

Nanny Ogg says arsk(or writes cant remember).

oh, ok. i think lords and ladies was the only witches book i read in english. not sure, though.

I think, since this thread is aimed at people who aren't sure of their English, it'd be good if we avoid that sort of joke It could become very confusing very quickly otherwise (I know I was getting pretty perplexed)...

As a final word, it actually is ask*...

Mr Scrub

*The link is to the Chambers online dictionary

cool idea,but we have to be serious about it.
*chuckles*

no seriously guys,be serious...

Indeed, great idea. Not sure what you mean with "repetional" though. Is that supposed to be "repeTItional"? I could change that, let me know if you want me to.

Happy Thudding!

LOL!! That's Morporkian (i.e. working class London-ish, but not really Cockney) rather than proper English. Albeit, folk in Lancre speak more of a mix of West Country crossed with Yorkshire-ish (just re-reading Lords and Ladies myself and noticed that last night )

don't you go tellin' me no porky pies otherwise i'll throw you down the bloody apples and pears!!!

understan'?

Ehm....I ehm....can....you explain me some rules about the sub clauses and the relative (contact clauses) please?? And I don't understand the "future-ways"....In german we don't have
5 different futures.....
Wizzer

There are 5 diferent futures in English? Uff!

Oh....no....There are 4 different futures in English sorry
Wizz

thank god i don't use grammar rules...

what,you mean future tenses?

i didn't even know we had 4.what are they?anyone know?

i just speak the language,i don't understand technicalities

same for me. and i think all native speakers.

In England we have got:
1.Will-future
2.going-to-future
3.present conuiwie auch immer
4.A tense we haven't got yet...
I hope it was your question.....
Wizz

ohhh,like future tenses,

i want to do this
i am going to do this
i shall do this
i don't know what i'm doing
does anyone know what we're going to do?
oi!!what are you doing over there?!!?!

you forgot the conditional,

I would do this

well, all the future tenses i can think of are the will-future and the going to future. maybe you've got more up there...

the future is the past which was the present which we now live in,did live in,and shall live in.therefore there is no future as time is all but one piece which bends to mans will by way of hours,days,minutes and so forth.

Can we come back to our old thema now,please (grammar-future and sub clauses)?

English has 4 future tenses;

Simple future: I will help him later.
Future Continuous: I will be helping him later.
Future Perfect: I will have helped him later on.
Future in past: I would have help him later.

Simple eh?....no your right its bloody confusing.

congrats bursar,you seem to know more about our english language than most other people.

Well, I have to be good at One language at least

i before e except after H...

thats a good one. now someone is going to complain that the "h" should be something else...but i say: "no"

there is also bound to be a few words that dont follow this rule though, i just cant think of any right now

arn't we supposed to be stopping this type of joke so we don't confuse anyone?

im already confused.. :S
the english language is so hard to learn :S

Angua

i'm also confused,although i'm confused about something else.what happens if a robber comes along and steals the 'c' out of a word like piece,then would the i still come before the e?

EVERYONE BEHAVE!

i was being serious! i always(most of the time) comes before e except after c!

also ook, piee or even peie isn't a word, so behave!

*wipes brow* sometimes i wonder! i really do!

english is imense coz you can say something completly wrong but still get the gist.

or something completely right,but is taken in a different way
