Yes, we can't have someone making sence on British news programs.

Ignoring the misspelling on "sense", that should be "programmes" should it not?

Yes, you know the Brits propensity for adding unnecessary letters to the simpliest of word, such as "programme", "colour" and "aluminium"...

I don't think it was the fact he couldn't predict the weather, it was the way he pronounced the words e.g., "weatherwise, it will be a bedder day tomorrow" ugggh how awful it must be to speak like that.

Anyway he's gone now so that's all over.

Best way to learn another language is first to have a purpose to learn and then immerse yourself in the language as much as possible.
Most difficult language is english as it is a mutt language which has borrowed all of its words from other languages and has applied the the grammatical rules from the same sources just to add to the difficulty. It seems so difficult that for the majority of people who have it as their first language are unilingual, and they rarely have the capacity to learn even one other language.

[FONT=&quot]Hello, [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Today I want to ask you about a simple question that had been turning in my mind, and I do really want to know your opinion.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The question is: What is the best way to learn a foreign language –case of the English language- ? In other words if someone wants really to master the language is reading or speaking sufficient for him or not?!!! [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]For me as a learner I like to: read English books, listen to an English speaker and watch English documentaries. So is this sufficient for learning a foreign language ?!! [/FONT]

My West Country accent came flooding back last weekend as I spent the weekend in Bristol. My God they do talk wierd over there. . . . . . . Polish, Romanian, Lithuanian, Russian.

I don't think I speak like Ken Livingstone.
