I guess that was kinda ironic, but she's Portugese. I think.

Does his maternal language is English or not?

No, but your sentence advicing him to practice his English was gramatically incorrect, and that was kinda funny.

It should have been "some advice: start to practise your English". And the above message should be "where was my mistake?".

*Sigh* What I tried to tell to Hoodie anyway was about general terms, not only because of small stuff... As my English isn't 100% perfect, even finishing the subject at school with 18 (The max mark is 20).

If I'm honest, I find it quite difficult to understand your posts. Do you use a translator at all?

Never. Translators aren't loyal, especially when ? to Portuguese or Portuguese to ?. If I don't know a word I search it on a dictionary.

(Sorry if I looked rude on the previous posts)

I know. You think you can trust them, but then, when you least expect it, they stab you in the back! They're even less loyal than Carlos Tevez, and that says a lot!

I personally think Haruka is doing pretty well. Of course her English isn't perfect but she's perfectly understandable in most situations. She certainly deserves more consideration as a non-native speaker than most of those whose mother tongue is English yet they can't even spell words such as “definitely” and “woman” and keep confusing “have” and “of”.

I can defiantly spell women. :mrgreen:

Haruka does write pretty decent English, although not so much on this page. I actually thought for a second she was deliberately writing poor English.

I'm glad to know that people are having consideration about my effort on writting English as well as I can. I haven't English classes anymore (11st grade was the last year of English) but my training isn't over yet. In fact I can learn much more vocabulary by participating on English websites. :)
