Native english or not?

[alkyng 3,080]

Hi, guys.

I just want to know, how many native english here... question baffles me sometimes.

I know some of you from where. But most of you I don't know..

I would like to know if the players we discussed with are natives, or not. As it's something hard to me to recognize (except if its english was horrible). I think there are a very few from native origins. as every time I know someone from where, I recognize he isn't a native.

To be honest, I pity the native english from US/UK or anywhere. as they everyday see horrible grammars here lol..

btw, too much. I just want here everyone to answer with one word.. Are you a native english? (better to answer both with poll and in post)... Starting with me I think my answer is clear, if I were a native I don't need to open the topic to recognize whose native or not

English is so abundant because it's international language. but chinese is just because the number of population in china

Btw, I think the other languages here are very few because a lot of them using english language in internet... I myself my Laptop and mobile phone are in English, cuz my language reverse everything literally from left to right

yea if u think about it the population of china is 1.3 billion, so even 1/2 of the chinese people dont even use their own language on the internet.

Not native English. Same as At_Shin at this point though  

[Venerable 2,967]

I cannot speak or type in English, and it's my native language.

 

 

(For the confused souls out there, English is NOT my native language, and the statement above was a joke, i.e. not to be taken seriously)

I forgot I even posted in there lol

Not native, but I am using English on the internet basically nonstop for like 10+ years now. I am using it so much that I actually can't remember some Slovak (my native language) words at times. At this point, if I would live in English speaking country, I think English would already trade places with my native language.

Yeah, I'm a native speaker but with how well I speak it I might as well not be lol

[Tokamak 1,021]

Not native. Despite practicing it a lot English remains a total mystery to me.

Same with portuguese (I'm not portuguese nor brazilian) just look at the population of portugal and then brazil, a huge diference

i'm not myself a native speak but i try my best searching for things in english instead of my native language (if u search in english there are more articles to read)

My native language is not English, but I speak it better than my Indian Language.

But the way you and I should all do it is that, you should speak English outside ; but with your families, you should speak your native language.

This way, we all can improve in both languages with our relatives, and bond more!

Oh I though you're a native

But maybe my predictions are wrong

I like how a lot of helpers aren't native English speakers. I'm also not a native speaker. My native language is spanish and I speak a bit of portuguese. Being a helper really helps my english to the point where I can call myself bilingual.

No sir. But at this point my English is probably better than my native language. I know, that's sad. However, I do wish to work on my native language sometime.

What is your native language??

Would you tell us??

Or you prefer to keep it secret

In real I would like to mention many players here and approximately I would like to mention all of the forum members to participate in the topic, but maybe some player don't prefer to share this though the question isn't even a personal and very simple (you're native or not) I haven't asked even if you native American or British.

Btw, At_Shin is an Indian , and he haven't hided this thing one day. So I think it's a normal thing to tell.

Okay, I don't speak English as native speaker, But I think that my language skills are really good Compared to the form of learning English in my country.

As for my native language is Hebrew, which can be found as the original language of the "Bible".

tbh, India isn't example for that, Because there are a lot of English speakers, and in general India isn't a stable country, I asked my Indian friend and he told me that you can find a new language on different zones in India (Just get away from the city a few miles to another place)

For all Indians who read it, I just point a fact....

I think most of us (forum players) speaks fluently more than most of the school friends, I think it's such a normal thing as most of the people don't give a  care about learning English.

I'm , though of many mistakes and bad grammars I had. I consider as one of the best students in the school and even my friends takes advices from me how to learn. Though in the forum no sane human will take any advice from me how to learn English

To be honest I haven't understood very well, but I think yes India have many languages.. But all are labeled as Indian language.

By the way waiting for At_Shin for a definite answer.. And when I said he is Indian I wasn't talk about a certain zone, but I meant the place is from India in general.
