    What is HBO?

    I learnt English to read One Piece scans online back then. Now whenever my coworkers see me reading manga scans in English they ask me "Do you even know what those characters are saying?" in which I replies "Well, this is the reason why I know English".

    Wow, thank you very much!

    Entropy.

    Definitely pronunciation for me. The fact that unlike most Indonesians, I can't say "r" (it comes out as "w" instead) doesn't help either.

    Damn, I tried to register but re-Captcha v1 is down.

    Mine is "Serendipity" because in Elements the Game, an online CCG I play a lot, when this card was released, I thought it was the most fun card in the entire game, and when I looked up the definition of "Serendipity" it fit my personality really well.

    Do they have a forum?

    I remember when I was climbing up a mountain with my coworkers and I noticed that there's a ladybug near me. I spontaneously said a "ladybug" (in English) and then trying to remember what was its name in our native language.

    Try Bahasa Indonesia. About 90% of its vocabulary is borrowed from various other languages.

    Wait, where did you come from?

    Do you guys have ADD? Don't worry, I have ADD too, and I can relate to what you feel since I also do them on a regular basis (well, except the "holy jumping monkey" part). As for me, ummm... Yes, it is "um"...

    What's the title of that song? Gotta look it up on YouTube.

    This thread reminds me to Canadians who are often stereotyped as "always kind and polite". Are they "fake", too?

    It gives me a huge advantage on competing with my rivals since I can read mathematical resource in English fluently when my rivals only know at most mediocre English.

    My dream to be a well-known translator.

    Right. Back then I tried to read all Harry Potter books in English and my vocabularies were vastly improved. After 1 or 2 books, I tried to read Sherlock Holmes and couldn't comprehend what's happening half of the time.

    Japanese have similar problems too. Arabians have similar problems too. As for me, an Indonesian, my most hated letter in English is "c" since I didn't know whether it would be read as an actual "c" in my language (example: champion), a "k" (example: crown), or an "s" (example: cyber).

    I have read somewhere that reading aloud hinders your speed instead because our brain reads faster than our mouth.

    Looks like they don't have forums... but wow! They have Arabic and Japanese, too!

    All along this time, I thought "run" was already winning with its 151 meanings...
  22. Monox D. I-Fly
    So, where is yout first forum?
  23. Monox D. I-Fly
    I don't know exactly, but I think "indeed" sometimes means "exactly". Or in some cases, "actually".
