I don't think anyone has had fun or a good time here.

Tell your friends.

If English is not your native language, what is? I'm intrigued now, especially since you pointed out that you learned English all by yourself, which is pretty impressive considering how horrible English is.
Posted by: Shiokazu Jul 20 2009, 12:53 AM
english is pretty easy,seriously. i just learned it the wrong way, my grammar is terrible.
my native language is portuguese,brazillian portuguese. yes i am a brazillian,dont hate me just because i am. i already hate being one.
btw thanks for the greetings everyone.

I don't see any reason to hate you for being Brazilian. Maybe to pity you, considering how much video game companies rape Brazil, but...

Ah, the power of English to spread itself like a plague, one non-English speaking gamer at a time...
Very cute avatar BTW, Yggdra FTW.

My qualm with Brazilian people comes into play only while I play MMOs. Otherwise I don't have any issues with them, so yeah. Welcome to LCN.
Posted by: Hayate Jul 20 2009, 04:24 AM
Hi new person! Good to see you here at LCN! ^^
I'm really impressed with your English, too. Your grammar is actually better and more understandable than some people here (probably sometimes including myself, haha). I hope you like it here, and I also hope that nobody gives you crap. You seem like a decent guy.
Posted by: Lucho Jul 20 2009, 04:29 AM

Posted by: Shiokazu Jul 20 2009, 05:18 AM

Hello and welcome to LCN, enjoy your stay (you'd be the only one).
considering how horrible English is.
Haha, what? English is laughably simple.
Posted by: Yuka Jul 20 2009, 06:55 AM
I didn't say complex, I said horrible. English is a terrible language.
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jul 20 2009, 07:13 AM
Disagree.
Posted by: Yuka Jul 20 2009, 07:33 AM
I'm going to have to question your reasoning behind that, Sturm. Care to enlighten me?
Posted by: Hayate Jul 20 2009, 08:00 AM
It seems like English has too many shortcuts and exceptions. Also it's a vocabulary thief. Of course I'm no linguistics expert but that's my negative two cents.

Y helo thar.
Don't sold your soul to the devil. Give it to us instead.
(oh okay here we go again)

Make sure that your stay is enlightening.
Posted by: Shiokazu Jul 20 2009, 05:41 PM
english is way too simple. like i said,i just learned the grammar the wrong way.

i already sold my soul to square enix,and,i regreet it.

Good tidings to thee

English is the language that lurks in dark alleys, mugs other languages, and rifles through their pockets for spare vocabulary.
Greetings and salutations. Post lots, pick your fights carefully, enjoy your stay.
Also, don't forget that smoking in one's apartment may set off the smoke detector. And don't eat eggs if the white is neon green because that's probably unhealthy. Unless you dyed them that color yourself with food coloring, in which case it's probably okay.

I really dislike that joke, as its completely false. The primary reason English has such a historically diverse lexicon is based on it's Germanic origins and the language's butchering by the French every time they decided to invade what is now known as England.
Posted by: H. Tsukiyono Jul 21 2009, 02:00 AM
Shiokazu, here is a good example of not picking one's fights carefully. I am one of those people who continually shoves her foot in her mouth, and some days people wonder how I have not been shot. (I fully blame an instinctive avoidance of places I am not familiar with and my overwhelmingly hermit-like tendencies.) Although I kind of like that joke, as an English-speaker...
The moral of the story is think before you post, because sometimes what someone perceives as harmless will offend somebody else. (Of course, there are ways to take this to an extreme, but as this is hardly extreme one could use it as a textbook case.) Also, wandering around the LCN forums can occasionally prove to be educational.
Sorry, Sturm. (Also, this might annoy you further, but you've mixed up the "it is" contraction and "its" the possessive. :/)One could say I have a lifelong grudge against the language for continually encouraging the butchering of a decent portion of my name despite being spelled in such a way that it should be easy to pronounce, but here I am not picking my fights carefully again. :/ It isn't the language's fault anyway.

There's a difference between a confusion of grammar and a simple typo. If I had used it's when I should have used its it would have very likely been a confusion of case, whereas in this circumstance it's reasonable to give me the benefit of the doubt and assume that I merely failed to depress the ' key hard enough.

Hopefully you can learn more Engilsh by conversing with us, it seems to be the best way to learn a language.

The grammatical notes were just to help me distinguish between the two because I'm weird and need to make the distinctions a mile wide for myself. :/ Otherwise visually the difference is the mere presence or absence of an apostrophe. From what you said, then, I will assume that you didn't quite depress the apostrophe hard enough and then proceeded to make a confusion of case since you did both in the same line.
(Shiokazu, sorry for hijacking your intro thread! This is a rather bad habit of mine, I think I've done this to the past two newcomers too.)

Sturm makes that "its"/"it's" mistake a lot, so I call bull.
Also: Tsuki, if you don't act so insecure, you won't be so insecure.
Posted by: Dr Sturm Jul 21 2009, 04:24 PM
I'll shut my mouth then because I didn't even see that one.
Posted by: Shiokazu Jul 21 2009, 05:18 PM
forum to forum,theres always the same discussions.
this is win
Posted by: jcdietz03 Jul 21 2009, 08:04 PM
English is like a bully. It beats up other languages and strips them of any loose grammar.
Posted by: Raijinili Jul 22 2009, 02:43 AM
You had some WEIRD bullies.
Posted by: Shiokazu Jul 22 2009, 06:03 PM
maybe he have problems with bullies
