Good morning girls 4u.gif

No i didn't have english at school and at university too. At school i learnt german and russian. Then we had competition in university for people who wanted to go abroad. I told a lays and they picked me ax.gif  with my friends. She said - common I know english everything wiil be ok. I went with her abroad to english speaking country and when our boss was asking do we need money, because wages will be week after, she was looking at him like a cow to new gates doh.gif  she had worse english then me. We stayed over there for 6 months, but we didn't need english, because there were working only polish people, so first I learnt polish and then after english. Now I go once per week to english classes to improve my english and to do some sertificate. It's very interesting school because people are from different countries, different coultures...

Girls are trying to improve your english english or american english? more or less?

it is, because some words are not used in english english or have different meanings from american english. When I was reading I meet a few words like a kid, I was always told that kid- kids are goat babies and a lot of people are using to describe them children. doesn't matter, more importent to learn every day something new mirksiukas.gif

I think it doesn't matter if it is American or British English if we talk about words such as kids. I think the difference is whether it is conversational English or not 4u.gif Maybe I am wrong blush2.gif

Good evening!
I've studied English at school, then professional English at university. Most of books were in English. But I didn't need writing or speaking.... So, now it rather difficult to express my thoughts and don't pay attention to my possible mistakes.
I think studying languages can become sthing like a hobby, it helps to communicate and understand better people in different countries. I'm studying Norwegian for 3 months, preparing to hold academic IELTS... And I think about Spanish or Portugal in future (haven't decided yet).... g.gif

Really, I've thought that in all our schools British English is taught.

In formal English yes, but in everyday English "kid" is highly used in the meaning of "child", so I think there is nothing to be surprised we are using this word here. If I said someone "I have two kids", I think the first thought struck him/her would be that I have two children, not two goats at home biggrin.gif
