[chadfree] Re: Rene...definition of dependable (was

I wouldn't call English difficult .... the grammar is incredible simple and
there's very few irregular verbs ... compared with Danish that is... 

for me it's mostly just about keeping a versatile vocabulary ... I can't
write as fancy in English as I can in Danish ... but it's more about lack of
vocabulary than anything else really... I learned technical English first
... then proper writing English afterwards ... scored pretty good in my
A-level English class ... hehehe ...

but for me it's pretty much more a matter of increasing and maintaining my
vocabulary these days ... than much anything else .... English is a walk in
the park on a sunny day for me :p
