yo wassup^^

man. i love it how this thread wakes up like once in a while.. :)
it should never "go to sleep"
Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see others grow;

Seems like it. :D I love English^^ I wish I could be in the United States, but there's the money again. It's just too expensive...
And guess who's watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in English right now. :lol:

Cool. Lately I was watching National Treasure - The Book of Secrets.
Nicholas Cage in English is a little bit strange.
Why the USA? You can go to Englang. At least for Holidays. It's cheaper.

I do not often read English books, I only have the English version of the twilight saga. But I ordered HP and the deathly hollows on English. I'm really looking forward to reading it! :D All my friends think I'm crazy and they're still wondering where my good marks in English come from. :mrgreen:

//edit: Because I hate the British accent. Really. I would have the chance to go to England, but I promised my Dad to come to his wedding. Shame, it would have been interesting, I think :?

arr.. i love england... and english,....
don't get me started on scottish and english accents

I think you misunderstood me :mrgreen:
National Treasure - The Book of Secrets is a Movie (Das Vermächtnis des geheimen Buches).

But Harry Potter in Engish is much better. The same with Twilight.
I only read the first and the second HP in german. And now I have some trouble with the german Terms and Names :P

In general I read a lot english books. I prefer the non-translated version, because it's the original and translation can never transfer the same intention, because often the author has his reasons to choose special words. And often it is very difficult to translate this intension properly.

EDIT: In your age I liked american english more, but now i love british english. It sounds so wonderful

Reading English books is the best way to improve the language, I think. ;) But I prefer the German ones the first time, because my English isn't perfect.
Oh, I remember my time at youtube, where I was always uploading self-made videos. :D I wrote really long descriptions - all in English :mrgreen: Yeah, I think I'm crazy. :crazy:

Last year, we read "The Hound of the Baskervilles" in English. It was a nice alternation.^^

This one I read too. But it's a long time ago.
In school my english was average. But after school I started to read a lot more and watch Movies and Series, and my english improved a lot.
