Writing in English

I don't understand why isn't everyone writing or at least trying to write messages in English? I am sure that it will immensely help improve the writing skill in English of many of the forum's participants. In case there are grammer or spelling mistakes, they can corrected in Hebrew. Come on everyone, don't be afraid to take the challenge!!!

!En garde

I don't see this forum as a place to improve my grammar and speak English. I visit message boards in English (and own a few, too) and that's where I practice my writing. I wouldn't mind speaking English every second of the day, but this is an Israeli message board after all. So I use English whenever necessary (expressions and the like), but the gist of things is usually in Hebrew. Anyway, writing skills really have nothing to do with it. If you want to improve your writing skills, write literature. If you want to be nitpicked, tell me and I'll do it.

What Strawberry said

Is correct to my opinion (except for the owning of a few message boards - that's quite unlike my style) But further more, few people here can easily make out messages in english without a dictionary and fewer still can really write messages in english without driving the Spell Checkers mad. Yes, I know what you think... that is exactly the reason why people should start posting in english here, eh? Wrong! If you'd check some random messages around, you'll see that right about three-quarters of the threads around are people that ask for help in english. It may intimidate people when they'll see half the forum's written in english. To my opinion, the idea comes with good intentions but is not realistic... even people accostumed to english such as Strawberry and myself will probably find it easier to use hebrew instead of english... Rogue overrules

Dear Rough

I hadn't extensively checked the forum's messages, before I wrote my message. You're absolutley right. The forum is indeed used by native Hebrew speakers who wish to improve their knowledge of English from a certain level. Nevertheless, I think that it is an important forum which can immensely contribute to English learning in Israel.

An optimist?

I don't know how much this forum can contribute to the learning of english in Israel but certainly it can help single persons to improve... And it's Rogue, not Rough... I pride myself quite a gentle person actually....

לאן נעלמת?

מה, ביצפר התחיל ואתה נמלט אל דפי המחברת? או שמריה קארי הזמינה את המעריץ האחרון שלה בעולם כולו לחודש אצלה ורק עכשיו חזרת? Rogue מכחיש שהתגעגע

ה מה לרשום. ואתם מדברים על המון דברים שאין לי מושג מה זה, כמו רומח הדרקון וכל הספרים שלכם. אני מרגיש לא שייך. LOL אויש והתרגומים... אבל אני עושה קאמבק
