i was wondering does everyone on here read / write english, or do you use some kind of translater program to read / write, given that there are loads of different countries and languages here, i was just thinking to myself wow, do they all speak english, eh?

sometimes when people post here you can tell that they use some kind of translator, but others you cant tell, so they must be able to read it and write it, wow guys i'm humbled

Computer translators are pretty worthless if you ask me. Have you ever tried translating something into a foreign language and then translating it back again? Pure mumbo jumbo

in norway, english is taught from the age of 9 or 10 (can't remember), but kids pick up some skills by watching tv-shows from the us and england.
those who use translator programs, please step forward. i don't think there are any, though. the language seems to be pretty good around here (some users excluded...)

90% of the Europeans who have English as a second language write it better than the Americans.

Well after all, American English is a bastardised form of proper English. Just look at all those words with the typos.

what? translators in xlt? where?
seriously, it would be a waste of time translating all the post and words... a person who doesnt know (a bit of) english wouldnt come to xlt... simply he wouldnt arrive here.
