The question is simple.

Do you learnt english as your omther language by your parents or you learned as a second one in school, videogames or internet.

I think that I have learnt more English on videogames that in School :uh..:
 
I was rather..neither because my parents taught me English before I went to kindergarten and so, but they taught me Korean as the 1st language.

i would gladly learn indonesian if i found any teachers
is indonesian difficult to learn?
 
wow im surprised at the results so far! :XD:
I am with the majority here, English is my second! I learned Chinese first
but my English is much better since I've lived most of my life here :ayashii:
ok, i suck at both!!
 
So far I'm the only one with English as a first language... Chinese is my second, Japanese is my third, and French is my fourth. But I suck at the last two :desksweat:
 
Mandarin is my first language! But since I grew up/am living in English-speaking countries, my English is way better. :cry:

I wish I was like a lot of the people here, who speak another language and learned English as a second one. That's so cool- I feel so boring! :uh..:
 
lolol don't worry, you're cool too boba :D

First language Dutch, both the general language and the Twents dialect.
Second language English, mostly from TV, movies and games, not at all from school >.<
Third language German
Fourth language French

and some traces of Japanese and Ukranian.
 
My first language is Thai..(oh..only one in CPM...??? :ohoho: ) I accept that I hate english so much but I want to study my graduate degree at University of Waterloo... in my 4th year of undergrad I took an English tutor course 40 hours/week for preparing for TOEFL exam... :uh..: .

At present..my English still suck!!! :blood: esp. speaking.... Recently, I took TOEFL exam again because the official score of the first exam has been out of date...and I got only 18 points in speaking... :uh..: .
