No truthman, it's YOUR fault for not learning properly. I wouldn't talk to someone in French or German and blame them if I get it wrong would I?
And why not support big brands, especially those with good prices, well informed and polite staff, decent (and UK based) customer service, a good returns/refunds policy and maybe a nice cafe so I can have a cup of tea whilst shopping.** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
**SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
I do it all because I'm scared.

You are absolutely fabulous, that's the reason we dont have any multilingual skills here. You are never going to learn any singe word in any language if you are shy to talk to someone or you feel they are better than you, whilst you speak and write you can develop your skill.
Look at me and my confident, how many different people trying to attack me(trying to find my orgin, think not english), still i'm on my own because my confidence. I'm not scared of you anyone never low estimate against anyone.0 -

Are you suggesting that this forum should be multi-lingual?
I think that would be a bit of a non-starter.
If everyone chipped in, commenting in their own language, it would make for a frighteningly complex forum.
You suggest that you are confident yet appear paranoid about "big brands" and the way they work, seemingly in some sort of underhand manner - according to you.We all evolve - get on with it0 -

I agree with you, but some people are different not only trying to disagree more than that
pmduk - Can you write in English by any chance?
pitkin2020 - It's fried his brain
DCFC79 - I do understand what hes saying but i had to decipher it, the english isnt best but maybe hes foreign and that would explain why he isnt accustomed to british way of life0 -

did i speak anything other than English. But if someone who is not having English as a first language, respect them if they do make mistakes and you want to be 100% perfect then politely tell them. not in a rude way. English is a language not a knowledge.0 -

We don't need multi-lingual skills if everyone posts in English - is that what you mean? I agree we don't
No-one is 100% perfect so I think that is a forlorn hope on your part.
English is a language and knowledge of that language is taught to those who wish to learn.We all evolve - get on with it0
