[LPW#61] Dentist! Drills FTW!!!!!

[Ellenriel]

ohh.. learning english huh..
I started that from like the age of 4, because everything I played or watched back then wasn't dutch translated..~

 

[Shir0]

i got decent when i found the internet. 4 is pretty young :o

quay started with 4 as well^^

 

[Hinode]

i got decent when i found the internet.

True story, bro.

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Lol well... i mostly mean how they teach foreign languages in high school aka 8-12 here... might be that i didnt have the greatest experience so i cant say much but most people seem to have forgotten the moment they stopped taking classes...

 

[Ellenriel]

^Thats true.

Most people in my class are quite bad at English, only a handful of them are actually good at it.
(I'm not including myself in that since thats selfish.)

 

[Shir0]

well.. cant say that i understand latin anymore maybe individual words~

『Well, we did have english lessons in school (even though they were almost completely useless) but I actually started learning it more actively when I got PS2 and most games were either completely english or had english voices... So in like 2-3 years of playing playing playing and playing I learned english.』

Bad English from my perspective of view would be if others can't understand what you mean even though you only use basic words.

 

[Ellenriel]

Yes, I also count that as bad English. And most of them actually have quite some trouble understanding.
I find it.. a shame really.. :x

Yeah, this makes me wonder how old the players in Elsword actually are. Since some Germans there can't understand me when I ask "Can you speak English?"

 

[Ellenriel]

Another Elsword player....
I guess so, I do seem to find that alot more often in games, in any really.

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Lol well we need to have uses for the foreign languages after the classes are taken... Theres really no reason to remember after if there is no use...

Yeah, is that bad or something?
I guess that it depends on which games it is. If I would find a German on the NA server he would probably be able to speak proper english because he has to read it/speak it every time he logs in.

『I don't know how strange it is for people not knowing english at young ages where you live, but in this country I live in most people of all ages can't even read an english text, much more understand it... And that's considering that they learn it for 10 damn years in school. 10 DAMN YEARS! And they can't even translate a few sentences without translator or a dictionary! Although I guess its teachers who don't even know their own subject who are at fault here... I learned German for 4 years at high school and I don't even remember how to form a single sentence >_<』

 

[Shir0]

quod erat demonstrandum is the only latin phrase i stumble upon~

and i really dont know how they couldnt understand "do you speak english" :/

btw.. thanks for the tips, samaemon~ i will make sure to at least get one vote (if i actually participate)~

In Sweden? Everyone above 10 years of age knows a bit of English except for old people around 60+ years old if they haven't spoken English in their entire life. They didn't have internet when they were younger so they probably never spoke english if they didn't take trips to other countries.

[MENTION=40801]infamous[/MENTION] ; I just noticed you've won this LPW so you can create a new one whenever or pass it to another member to create. Anyway, congrats.

i did?? ahh so i did. at least it wasn't a post of me denying my loliconness lol

 

[Ellenriel]

No not bad at all~ I just more or less restarted that game.

I suppose.. but just that what I've seen lately have been alot bad or nearly no speaking English players..
Of course those who always do, but also alot of people who can't.

 

[Shir0]

please make a new lpw, lo-.. infa

Really? Which server do you play on? Probably not DE

I guess, but that also depends on how much you care for your English lessions. I expect most people to learn English through the internet nowadays. Especially dudes since they play alot more than most women.

 

[Ghost Kitty~]

Lol ganbatte~ Hmm to find people to also make a siggy~ xD

Hmm... well english is almost global... so people planning to have much to do with international business should know a bit...

 

[Ellenriel]

Probably not that one, I only get one server to choose from..

..I learned most from playing games though...

 

[Hinode]

Sure, I see people speaking with English speaking people that's job related. The Swedish dialect when they speak English. It's priceless

Hmm, everyone got only 1 server to choose from in-game. The actual server you play on is dependent on the page you downloaded the game from I think.

Same here, mostly games.

@MokouX13 Elsword UK was released just recently. Although it's comparable to Elsword DE in terms of updates, the only thing it's lacking at the moment are job advancements. Not sure when we'll be seeing that.

Play whichever you feel comfortable with since ping is a huge matter in Elsword.

There are quite a few English speaking guilds in DE. Both Hinode and I are in some. You could join the same guild Hinode joined recently.

As Hinode says, the server you're on is dependant on the version you download.
