To tell you all the unpleasant truth I have to confess that I am not a heroic person , who studies two languages. From my childhood on I have studied English , of course among the circumstances of Hungary in the fifities and sixties . In between I had studied Russian, Latin , German and French even from curiosity Esperanto for a short time too. In English I reached a certain level, which was considered rather high in Hungary, so I can speak fluently and write and read without dictionary although full of mistakes. I should like to reach this level in spanish too, but I am far from this goal.

But anyway I am very glad to improve my English with your kind help and I appreciate highly your corrections. In my age I enjoy that I am capable to learn at all.

Thanks again my friends.

Thanks Princess Mari you are polite and kind. Armenia and Hungary used to be in the same situation, but by now I suppose you are much better off. I wish you all the best. - porcupine7, Dec 22, 2011
Nice post PM - just one little suggestion; cognitive would perhaps be better as 'thoughtful' or 'well thought out' :) - Kiwi-Girl, Dec 23, 2011

Porcupine ! now there is a name to conjure with , we have a saying

in the land of OZ when someone does so many things at once that they

have more points than a Porcupine, and so it is with our mysterious

Hungarian points scorer. She is a young lady of many talents and surprises,

her knowledge of languages is the stuff of legends , just being able to speak

Hungarian would be enough for us mere mortals , it being a language strange

mystifying and non aligned to any other , but our dear friend has a wonderful

command of English and is fast becoming a force in Spanish , well done dear

friend on reaching 25 K, you are now in legend class!
