 LanguagesAsk questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful. Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

It has a few different meanings in the English language 1. practice followed by people of a particular group or region. 2. Duties or taxes imposed on imported and, less commonly, exported goods. 3.Made to order. Then if you make the word 'customer' a person or business that purchases a commodity or service English is a very difficult language to master I would think. 20. juli 2006, 19:50:39 Onderwerp: Re: Translation please Pedro Martínez: WOW harsh thing to say wasn't it?

Back to languages. 7. juni 2006, 02:08:38 Aangepast door Rose (7. juni 2006, 02:09:05) All global moderators can watch the board, I assume.

Hrqls: It made it a little difficult for me when I was learning basic html. I would make a page with the colour tag and it never worked. Once I realized it was all 'set' in American English then I had no problem 15. april 2006, 19:07:31 Onderwerp: Re: Pet peeves.....

neighbor US / Neighbour UK/Canada (Common Wealth is likely the best way to say it) flavor harbor color etc all the '-our' endings are Common Wealth Same as some z words.. realize/realise etc US/Common Wealth 14. april 2006, 15:56:48 Onderwerp: Re: CRY ME A RIVER: Accents have nothing to do with proper spelling though! 14. april 2006, 15:46:17 With congratulations... I saw a banner at a wedding one time that read "congradulations on your wedding". I was floored. I couldn't believe that mistake got by the printers. Does it mean that maybe folks are so lax in their English that many, many don't know the proper words/spelling etc? 14. april 2006, 15:43:43 Onderwerp: Re: Pet peeves..... رضا: Yes, I realize that part. I think a lot of it is lack of written use in every day life. Most folks don't normally write or type very much except at sites like this. Maybe showing them the difference will help them to learn the difference. Just a thought. 14. april 2006, 15:35:29 Onderwerp: Pet peeves..... I am by no means a scholar or the best at grammar in the English language but I can't get over how many people make these common mistakes!
It is You're welcome, not your welcome! It is congrats or congratulations, not congrads! I can hear you, not here you! It is their car, not there car! they're going away, not there going away! ...this concludes my rant. |
