What English words sounds the funniest for you?
veenux replied to Fabrice's topic in English Vocabulary
As a german, german words that got 'imported' into the english language sound really funny to me. Words like 'kindergarten', 'doppelgänger' or 'to abseil' just sound weird for a native speaker -
This still confuses me. Are both versions right? I see and read both of them pretty frequently, 'a lot' seems to be more common though, and it's what I used most often.

At what age did you start learning English?
veenux replied to Medza's topic in English Language | Discussion
I was about 8 years old. In most elementary schools in Germany, they start teaching English in the 3rd grade. I never got really good at it though, until I started to play the guitar at the age of 14 and watched english guitar lessons on Youtube all day That's what really got me started. Now I watch nearly every movie and TV series in english, I just can't enjoy the german dubs anymore. -
Irish, Scottish and Australian are definitely my favourite accents. It can get hard to understand everything sometimes, but it's just very enjoyable and even funny to listen to.

I want to learn spanish in the near future. I have been to spain quite often and always enjoyed it immensely, but always felt so bad not understanding most things. Spanish people always talk so fast
