You better learn express yourself in English (25)
leonardo5: A fellow countryman of mine went to visit Miami; it was his first time in an English-speaking country.
He was enjoying the fine (lovely) beaches and decided to go into the sea. Shortly after he entered he noticed that he was in deep trouble. He had moved to far out from the coast and the riptide was carrying him out to sea. He realized that he needed help and wanted to alert the watchers. but he recalled that it was an english-speaking country and then he wracks his brain; it was absolutely imperative that he makes them understand and has to do it in English that he had learned in high school. Then he started to crying out: "The book is on the desk...the teacher is front to the pupils!"

Always a good idea to learn some basic language words before visiting a new place. Thankfully he was ok.

Kalimera: Sorry I am lost
Err...have I to explain the joke? The guy needed to ask help and the only phases in English he knew were what he learned from high school.
It is (besides a joke) a criticise for the way languages are taught in Argentina (as an example you can see my English skill
)------ This thread is Archived ------

I'm a writer, so I NEED a big vocabulary to visually express to my readers. May I commend you. I understand everything you say, & all things considered, I think your English is better than lots of Americans I know! Keep up the good work! You are already well on your way…

Good translation. But the first word should be rather "well" instead "good"

And I totally know what you're saying... I'm sure native speakers can't get it, but we have (or used to have? I've been out of teaching for the last 6 years now) the same problem. There used to be a commercial here about it - something like "Good morning! Is your cat brown?" - "Yes, my cat is brown" etc. (It used to ridicule that system and advertize English courses that would teach you real language in use) So I know what you're saying 
You're doing a GOOD job, just keep posting on the forums and talking to people!------ This thread is Archived ------
