It's nothing serious , it's more annoying than dangerous. All I can say , the situation there got much worse and they need our help . There will be a special place in hell for those "people" and nations who defended Russia or even just stood passive at their side. So I'm definitely going back. A good thing I can still play games. Hope all of you are well too ! Glad to see you back to home. Stay well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope all of you are well too ! Hello @D.Draker! Glad to hear from you! I am sure that surviving is the most important of all. Hope your injury is not too serious! Please, take good care of you, and don't take your injury lightly! Only a healthy man can fight! Unfortunately, I'm too old and not trained for that. Anyway, recover well from your injury at home!

Yes, I was just browsing through the unread posts and saw you're a Frisian ! I couldn't beleive my eyes ! I hope my mind wasn't playing tricks with me . I mean , you're so great ! Frisians are an iconic nation. Wise, ancient and very rare to meet these days . I read quite a lot about them and was always so fascinated ! It doesn't matter what age you are , you're too valuable to be sent to that meat grinder . Though, it'd be a great honour to serve under your command , and you must be a general , at least . No wonder your English is so perfect ! Frisian and English are very closely related. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot for this unbelievable nice reply, @D.Draker! Yes, I am a Frisian! But it would never have been enough for a general, you have to be of a different breed. Nevertheless, I feel very honoured and am definitely very pleased that you have read some of my posts. I have just drunk a cup of East Frisian tea. By the way, the Frisian dialect is "plattdeutsch" and doesn't sound so nice to many Germans. I've always spoken pure "hochdeutsch" for family reasons, and today, too. I don't know how long you'll be home, but I hope we can chat a bit more. For now, I wish you a good night.

No worries , just give it some time , I'll heal and write you a poem , lol. 2 - Being a Frisian is already more than enough . The Frisians are extremely talented people. Outstanding genes ! 3 - It's a great honour for me ! 4 - Tastey ! 5 - They are wrong , it's a very beautiful language , like the Frisian people themselves ! Just look at Doutzen Kroess , for example. 6 - It depends on the healing process. AstroSkipper, of course I'll chat with you with pleasure !

Thank you. Hope the healing process goes well and you have enough time for full recovery! You have complimented me so many times on my English language skills, which by far need improvement. In any case, I must return this compliment regarding your English language competence. From your profile, I know you are French, and I think learning, speaking and writing in English is a bit more difficult for a native French speaker than a German (Frisian ) one. Your English is absolutely perfect. Where did you learn it? Or, is your background bilingual or multilingual?

Your English is absolutely perfect. Where did you learn it? Or, is your background bilingual or multilingual? Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper 1 - Thanks, don't worry it will . I'm like a lizard, lol. I just had to jump on a pile of very sharp objects when trying to avoid a blast . It was like - either blast or this , lol. So there's a huge puncture in one of my toes. Why huge ? Well , I'm very tall and (because of this and some of my muscles) quite heavy , so ... The other "piercings" , well ... ok , lets forget about it . Luckily, all is fine with the face. I got no burns , but the commies use their thermobarics quite extensively , so yeah , one could say I got lucky. Unfortunately, I need to stop here as I can't disclose anything in particular due to the obvious safety reasons (not mine, but the people under constant and brutal attacks) and due to the no-war-talks website policy. 2 - It's not just a compliment , it's a fact. You feel the laguage like it's your mother tongue. 3 - Thank you , well ... hard to say . I started to learn English at 5 - 6 y.o. , mostly at school. Despite the common belief , the French are quite good with English , just look at @msfntor ! As for me , I'm from Vichy and it is very different from the rest of the French territories . Besides, Vichy always had very warm feelings towards Dutch and Germans, esp. the Frisian ones . And it will ! We originate from the Germanic tribes, I don't need to tell you that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some members, here in this forum, have a completely different opinion. 16 hours ago, D.Draker said: Despite the common belief , the French are quite good with English I didn't mean to say that the French can't learn English or are less talented. I haven't been to France for a while. In the past, I didn't get very far with English when I spent my holidays there. I had to get out my French dictionary. It's probably all totally changed nowadays! 16 hours ago, D.Draker said: As for me , I'm from Vichy and it is very different from the rest of the French territories .

Nice to hear that we originate from the same tribes! Truth be told, all human individuals from the species homo sapiens do have the same origin, from a biological point of view. Unfortunately, from another point of view, there are some exceptions. Edited August 29, 2022 by AstroSkipper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mina7601 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 However, I started learning French when I was 12 years old, so the 2 languages I speak aside from my native language (Arabic) are: English and French. French is still a WIP (Work In Progress) for me, so it's not exactly perfect, but English, oh man, you can consider me mastered on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unlike in Egypt , English is not our state language, so most of us starting to learn it only at that age or even later. I'm pretty sure there are exceptions (rich families , etc).
