Despite the fact that the question is about how we perform, i wonder, why someone started to write in english and everyone sticks to that decision.. but this may be due to herd-behaviour :lol:
I consider myself as a quite-fluent talker, since I am speaking english for about .. oh, I suck at maths ... since I grew 8 or 9, which was due to internet (that must be nearly a decade according to the formula pi-mal-daumen :lachen: ).
I decided to go for A-Levels once i was to choose my curriculum for the 'Oberstufe' , but then again my teacher has been so much of <me:gewalt:her>... I mean, she has no clue how to give classes and .. I simply do not like her (to put it the easy way)
Anyways, keep discussing - I'm looking forward to it :]
EDIT//
"No non-native can claim to be truely perfect if it comes to English" true. Most native-speaker do not even understand Havardian-English...
And yes, a handy would be some kind of 'Massagegerät' , if you get my hint :D
