Wątek angielsko-angielski.

[danway1]

This thread is about anything in english. Any polish language will be deleted.

[jatotylko]

It is great idea to talk here in english :) I'm very happy and glad.
But please forgive me if I'll make grammar mistakes I'm not good at that ;)
Anyway I'm going to write here from time to time & share with you my free
time :)
Ths Dan

[danway1]

You welcome Meg. I promise that I also talk here. Forgive me if i'll make
grammar mistakes like Meg. Justine you can fix up our mistkes, because you are
the best here in english.

Greetings For All.

English only :-)

[kubatka]

Daniel! If the discussions in this thread are to be only in English why on
earth you have written the topic in Polish?? :-)

greets

[kubatka]

Too bad that I don't have much time these days and I won't be able to take
active part in the discussions :-(, but maybe I will do my best to improve the
situation??. It will be a good practice before my exam...

greets

[danway1]

I wrote title in polish, because this forum is polish not english. This Tread
is only english.

Thanks for that few words.

Greetings

[nait]

Udalo sie ;-)
Swoja droga dobrze, ze nie pisalas po anielsku, bo nie wiem czy ktos by to
zrozumial. To musi byc jakis malo znany jezyk ;)

[wojciasf]

Pozdrawiam Daniel ulegajacy siostrze.

[linea21]

:D oh Big Brother ;D sory

[danway1]

I forgive you this time, but in the future there will not be mercy.

[kubatka]

nobody wants to write here anything, so I'll do this :-) so as not to be out of
practice... but the truth is that I don't know what to write about and that's
why I'm not writing about anything :-)

sweet dreams :-)

[danway1]

Yupi!!! Someone writes here. I thought that thread died but it still alive.

[kubatka]

I won't let this theread to be dead... I'll write here as long as it is
possible for me to write before going to Norway :-). And if noone wants to
write here so it's their problem :-P

[jatotylko]

I'll write here also if you let me :)
Sorry for such long absence. But as some of you know, I didn't have much time
to visit forum, read all statements and write here also.
Now I have more time and I'll try to visit it often :)
greetings to all of you who writes here :)

[danway1]

Meg welcome back here on forum.

To Justine!!

[danway1]

Where are you now?? What are you doing at this time when i alone write here on
forum. Noone help me :(
I wait for somebody for about half hour.

[kubatka]

I've told somewhere here that I am feeling down and that's why I haven't been
writing anything on forum. as you probably have noticed I even stopped sending
you sms messages...

[danway1]

I have noticed this and i had very quiet nights :)
But tell what has happened to you??

[kubatka]

i don't want to talk about it, it's still too depressing for me ;-(

[jatotylko]

I'm sad :(
But I won't tell why because I don't think I should and I guess this is not
right place for it :)
Anyway
I'm sad :(:(:(:(:(
But do I need any help to smile again ?? :(:(

[danway1]

In this moment i'm happy. Meg say what has happened to you. Is your problem
really serious??

[jatotylko]

Not anymore :) It's alright now :) and I hope it will stay that way :)
I had been today on a trip. Unforgettable trip on a bike :)
I won't forget it :) For the first time I had fallen to the ditch :):):)
But I am alright, beside few bruises :)

[danway1]

I see that you had trip with some adventures. I want like you some adventures.

[jatotylko]

My optimism had left me, lately :(
Things are not happening like they could. I'm losing faith for better tommorow.
Fear had swept over me today. I had a strange headache but not like usually. I
felt it even in my throat, and I can feel it a little, still. Probably nothing
serious. But it made me to start thinking.

[wojciasf]

Fear of the dark :)

[jatotylko]

I'm not fear of darkness.

[wojciasf]

Not darkness but dark (ciemnosc) a to dla tego ze po ciemku ci przychodza te
myśli(przeprawszam za polish )

[jatotylko]

wojtuś
dark means ciemny
and darkness means ciemność :)
and not opposite like you think :)
If you don't beliewve me, check in your dictionary :)

[nait]

darkness - ciemność, ciemnota
dark - ciemny, ponury, ukryty

PS. nie zapale :P

[danway1]

You can't be sad. Life is too hard but it is hard for everyone.

[jatotylko]

I can tell you that when I read some of the statements, I can't stop laughing :)
Thank you all, for that :)

[wojciasf]

it's the title of Iron Maiden song and I haven't made it up. We can only assume
what the author wanted to say. Maybe we could think together how to translate
it nicely?

[kubatka]

It's high time I started writing in English in order no to lose fluency in
writing in English. I've got an exam in two days' time and I will have to write
an essay then...wrrrrr...

As I became aware of the difficulties that lay ahead, my morale dropped :(

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Hello Danway and Friends,
I am back here - with greetings from forum Roztocze!

English Only - what a great idea :-)
I have something a little poem for you today. Enjoy:

Teach Me

Teach me the value of good
When I have only the capacity for evil.
Teach me the value of love
When I have only the capacity for hate.

Teach me the value of knowledge
When I lack the opportunity to use it.
Teach me the value of opinion
When I am not permitted to voice it.

Teach me the value of honesty
When there is so little of it around me.
Teach me the value of reason
When there is so little of it used.

Teach me the value of trust
When in myself I have little.
Teach me the value of these virtues
When I am ignorant of their meaning.

Correction

[blotniarka.stawowa]

> I have something a little poem for you today.
I meant:
I have something - a little poem for you today.

[arwen.a]

Dear Blotniarka! thank you!!!
I checked in dictionary what "capacity" means and I know everythink. And in
spite of my terrible mistakes I read this thread (?) and I dared (?) to writte
here!
Regards from beautiful Arwen ;-))

Dear Arwen beautiful and modest :-)),
Soooooo, you have dared to write here! Excellent. I gather that you enjoyed
learning what "capacity" was...
Arwen, I am convinced that you have the capacity for all the things beautiful!

Now about this "daring" business: Little kids often play the game "truth or
dare"... Do you know how to play it? It's a fun game, even older kids (I mean
those over 20 and even 30) like to play it sometimes :-))

[arwen.a]

Hi, Blotniarka!
I will remember what "capasity" means :-)

You know that according to our frieds I'm a small kid. And I love every fun
games. I don't know how to play this game "truth or dare" :-(
Can you explain that?
A.

Hello Arwen,
Of course I can, but it's complicated. The best way to learn is to practice it!
As with everything, "practice makes perfect". :-))) Hopefuly we can do it
together, with our mutual friends from "Forum R." - sometime...?

[arwen.a]

But I can't practise it. I don't know how begin it.

[blotniarka.stawowa]

You have to come to my next party, then!
(just so we can play together in a larger group of friends...)

[danway1]

Arwen!! everyone made here mistakes in grammar. Don't be sad when you write
something not correct.

[danway1]

This poem is very clever. Thanks for wrote it for everyone on forum. I remember
about forum Roztocze, but i didn't enough time to went there and wrote here.
From today i will have more time for everyone.

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Hi Daniel,
I am sure everyone would benefit from your free time, including f. "Roztocze"!
:-)) Please visit us there more often...

[danway1]

If i had enough time, i will be on Roztocze more often than that.

Hi, I've noticed you visiting us tonight. Thanks!

[danway1]

You welcome. You also came here to our house ;)

Happy Birthday, Leon!

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Did you know that Leonard Cohen is 70 years old today?
Anybody here likes him?

[kubatka]

To be honest I don't like his songs, apart from 'everybody knows'.

[danway1]

I like him. Happy Birthday to him. His last record was very good. I also liked
his the best song "Dancing To The End Of Love"

Murder in the Bathtub

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Murder in the Bathtub

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Murder in the Bathtub

About to take a bath
I spied a spider in the tub
Eight legs worked
trying to climb
the unscalable thirty feet
of slippery pink enamel
Poor thing -

What could I do?
We didn't like his webs in the house
and out in the snow he would freeze
or starve

I picked up a jar
and crushed him
quickly

I shrugged off that nasty guilt
After all
People kill spiders all the time

[jatotylko]

I don't know how about others, but I like it :)
I'm trying to kill a fly lately, but it's quicker than my hand :( and still
disturbing my peace wrrrr

[blotniarka.stawowa]

And won't you feel guilty after the fly is dead...?
wrrr :-))

[jatotylko]

No :)
Because, the day after I wrote about it, my younger sister did it by herself :P
So my conscience is clear :)

[jatotylko]

And I get rid of the fly :)

[kubatka]

I like the poem very much. Now I feel as if I were the person who killed the
spider ;). But I don't kill spiders with a jar but with a shoe or newspaper :)

Hi Kubatka,
thanks for the practical advice about choosing the murder weapon. ;))

[kubatka]

thanks for your appreciation of my ideas. Should you have more questions
concerning killing spiders do no hesitate to ask me :)

Horror stories

Well then, are you equally experienced in killing other creatures? :) Would you
like to share some ideas?

I'm beginning to love this conversation...like straight from Steven King's book :)

[kubatka]

I don't think that I have enough ideas to share. I kill spiders because I
suffer from arachnofobia and I feel very satisfied if I manage to kill
unsightly spiders ;)

[jatotylko]

Dan, can you tell me sth about one of the Stephen King books ??
I mean here, Sklepik z marzeniami, because my sister bought it yesterday, for
herself, and I'm wondering if you read it :)
Is it a good book in your opinion ?

[linea21]

Aloha :-) I would like write here :-) But my english is not very well. Please
help me.

Love Linea :)

[jatotylko]

Don't worry about your english :) Just write :)

[linea21]

:-) If you say so. Now I'm happy person :)

Linea M-joy

[jatotylko]

If you are happy than I am happy too ;P

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Let me join all the happy people here with a heartfelt "hello"!

Kids, don't worry about your mistakes, just have courage and write! About
everything and anything... Practice makes perfect...

[jatotylko]

I'm wondering. Maybe someone else would like to write in here - so don't be
afraid :) Write and we will read :)
Am I right or not ?? ;P

You are 100% right! I keep checking in here and for the longest time
...absolutely nothing!
Thanks for writing - hopefuly you can motivate your friends to get off the
comfortable Danway's chesterfield and write!
Cheers,
B.

[blotniarka.stawowa]

The only reason for this post is to improve my statistics on this forum ;))

Happy New Year, everyone!
May the Force be with You, Danway and Friends!

[danway1]

Every reason is good to write posts ;)

[kubatka]

I'm about to write an essay on topic: 'does generation gap really exist in your
society?' and I have no idea how to write it and what to write in it :D. I like
writing essays but not on such stupid topics Something tells me that I will
write it tomorrow morning just before classes :D

[wojciasf]

ja nie pamiemajet szto ty gawarit :P

If you had learnt English at school, you would have understood what I had
written before :P

Hi Hello
It was a big brake for me in this thread.
Armitage I have a question for you. Would you like to continue our convesations
in english ? Since our last talk, I haven't use it at all.
What do you think ?

[armitage3]

I would be glad to do so.

So what would be the subject of our conversation??

John

[jatotylko]

Is it the only place where we could talk ?
That is only a question.

[armitage3]

Aahhh i know what You mean. But yes this is the only place ......... for now.
This is because i use my PC only at night, and i haven't much time to do so.
So for now this will have to do.

John

[jatotylko]

I think that telling here anything else is not necessary, till next - you know
what.

[armitage3]

Ok we'll finish this conversation elsewere.

John

[jatotylko]

Believe me, I will try :) very hard :)

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Hi Daniel and Friends,
After your encouragement (given on "Roztocze" I decided to pay you a little visit...
What have you been up to lately?
Don't worry about the silence here - exams are soon over (most of you are
students, I presume...) - and you WILL get your lives back!
Cheers,
B.

[danway1]

Welcome back, Błotniarko. I'm very pleased also I see you here. Thanks for your
visit herem when time is very bad in this moment.
Cheers.

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Thanks, Dan...
Look what I was just reading:
---
Our language has wisely sensed the two sides of being alone.
It has created the word "loneliness" to express the pain of being alone.
And it has created the word "solitude" to express the glory of being alone.

(1886-1963)

[arwen.a]

Dear Blotniarka, please, can you tell me how long must I wait for my fluent
English... I have lived in english country for 5 months and...
wrrrr... I mean...
I wanna cry... I wanna speak Polish!

[blotniarka.stawowa]

Dear Arwen,
There are no rules here...
I know it sounds cruel, but try to isolate yourself from Polish speaking people,
and talk to everyone in English only. You’ll find that at the beginning it’s
easier to understand others than to express yourself, which can be frustrating
at times... But don’t worry!
My advice: open your mouth in the morning and talk, talk, talk – to everybody
that is willing to listen (your neighbour, bus driver, store clerk, co-workers,
etc.)- all day long!!!

Good luck Arwen - I KNOW you can do it! :))

[arwen.a]

Thank :) I will!!!
But is one small problem - my friends here are Polish people.
Hmmm...
We can speak English each other...
Now I can understand (at least) Irish people. That's true - I'm verrrrry,
werrrry angry when I can't express myself...
OK, we'll try talk, talk, talk :)

(really can I do it?)

[blotniarka.stawowa]

arwen.a napisała:
> Now I can understand (at least) Irish people.
That’s a good start! It’s easier to talk and understand major accents
(American=NAm, English English=EE, Australian=AusE, New Zealand=NZE) than
distinguish Irish from Scotisch, Welsh etc. You are doing well already!

> (really can I do it?)
I have no doubts about that :) We have not met in person, but I've conversed
with you on the net - you are smart, determined and ambitious.
Best wishes, Arwen :))
