It's just as well this place is written in English because I imagine a fair number of us wouldn't be playing otherwise: the vast majority of native English (Queen's or Queens
 ) speakers can barely speak a word of other languages.
When abroad my vocabulary runs as far as:- "Je ne parle Francais." "Que?" "Ein gross bier, bitte!"  |

Reminds me of a joke.
What do you call someone who speaks 3 languages? - Trilingual What do you call someone who speaks 2 languages? - Bilingual What do you call someone who speaks 1 language? - A native English speaker |

When abroad my vocabulary runs as far as:- "Je ne parle Francais." "Que?" "Ein gross bier, bitte!" The third one is surely the most important one. And you are all welcome to correct my english. It is not the best. I scored once 23 mistakes in a vocabulary test with twenty words. |

This is good structure for the most part. One of the trickiest things with German/English, is that even though English is a Germanic language, the two languages structure their sentences differently. So the most common mistake in English->German or German->English is swapping around words. For the blurb above, it would read much better in English with "scored" and "once" swapped. |

Also even some native English speakers do not use correct grammar, have atrocious spelling etc. And then we have the question of British English vs other variations.
So while I would, in principle, be more than happy to help I can see difficulties... There is only the Queens English, the others are actually foreign languages, old chap. You forgot the apostrophe in "Queen's". Or you misread the meaning...... |
