Ye Olde Pub (The English Pub)

[Otsu]

I must apologise! I never ment to offend anyone. I just felt like writing wankers because its a freaking awesome word ^^

[Getingar]

Wankere?

^ haha!

 

In other news: I just got an idea. I'd like to open a pub here in Norway(prefrebly Bergen) where "every and all" conversations must be in english. If you don't know english you're not welcome.

Or The Binary Pub "The world consists of two kinds of people: Those that know binary and those that don't"

If you do so I'll move to Bergen first thing

[Wackee]

That would be lovely, but it would be hard to control that everyone would actually speak english..

[Henrik C]

Yeah, and what would you do when someone spoke, say, Norwegian?

Throw them out? I think that would give quite a lot bad PR.

[Skjelvgråt]

Lol P: yeah! Brb, have to take a dump!

[Wackee]

Sure people often would speak english to each each other -that cannot be prevented. But, you can say you only accept bara orders in english, and arrange quizzes and stuff, where the quizzmaster talks in english, and the anwers have to be in english.

Sounds like a fun project. Good accents give a discount, right?

[Wackee]

But if you carry an Oxford accent, its more expensive )

[henbruas]

Are you kidding? Nothing beats pure Queen's English.

[Wackee]

Yes Sir. I was kidding! My strange english humor..

Is it normal to be nervous when you are talking in a foreign language?

Is it normal to be nervous when you are talking in a foreign language?

Yea. It is. At least if you're talking to somone that you don't talk to that often. I have no problem chatting in English with my friends, but in class I'm a tad more nervous.. Just a tad.

[Mikkel™]

Jolly good! I will probaply come around some time. Just hand me that bottle of whiskey

Thankfully, talking over ventrilo during my World of Warcraft raids have started eliminating the whole "awkward speaking english to people"-thing. I reckon in a couple of more months, I'll be able to speak fluently without a problem.

[Mikkel™]

Not at all. I hardly use abbrivations and game slang when speaking english, except during those short 5-minute fights. Those events are usually about 2-3 hours per week in total. On the regular speaking-part, we're talking 10-20 hours per week.

My humble apologies. I was mistaken
