Don't try to be smart. Google translator is not good. It can translate just few frazes corect and the rest translate litterely.

Jiao: I m reffering about speaking of course. The language structure and gramar is also quite easy. The written word is world of itself.

However this is not the issue, as I do not have tutor for start.

I also learned fairly good german by myself (I was thought to be indigenous by local people after 4 months in germany) and can read in few other european languages,altough I m not able to speak them as I never spoke a word in them. I just learned to read and translate the text in my language. Never get myself to learn how to pronounce things actually.
To think about it my english speaking friends are laughing off sometimes when I say something, but that doesnt concerns me much as long as I m able to comunicate fluently.

Perhaps main problem with all this issue is because of my unintentionall replacement of word "simple" by word "easy".

Because its meant to be simple, not easy......

.....as one of my friends often says about archery.

Welcome to the Tower of Babel. I think that different languages like cultures are a richness. I invite you all to discuss in my mother tongue Finnish :wink: . You can find a Finnish traditional archery discussion forum at http://www.perinnejousi.fi/keskustelu/index.php. "Perinnejousi" means "legacy bow" or rather "traditional bow" in English. It maybe easier for your to start the discussion with the Finns first in the Non-Finnish Discussion section the forum (newly created). Tervetuloa Perinnejousen keskustelufoorumiin! PV

Mine was from Kiiminki (near Oulu). Had the greatest time with her and her family back in the summer of '80 (the midsummer nights took a bit of getting used to, though--you really had to pay attention to your watch).
