How I learned english....
well, I started studying in class, then when I started getting interested in filmmaking I realized that i would really need to know english, so I started reading forums (this one of course), watching films in english, going to english academy, and going to enlgand in summer.... that's mostly how I learned english....
Now, here I am, writing in english....

Well wasn't born in the UK, but was raised in the UK my whole life, so not sure if I'm technically classed as a native speaker or not.

I learned English as a young child when I realized that I lived in America and everyone around me was speaking it. :grin:
But in all seriousness, there are a lot of non-native speakers here and I think it is great. I worked with one for TimeFest, in fact, and wrote a script which he translated into his native language and then gave subtitles.

"Thou unmuzzled tardy-gaited popinjay!"
"Thou vain fat-kidneyed gudgeon!"
at least now you can insult like a native speaker

Grammar. Ha! What's funny is most Americans today don't know **** about English Grammar. I know some young girls who came here from Germany for school and are better in English grammar than most others in this country. I can speak it and I can write it in a way that is understandable and I am happy about that.
