Is English your first language?

[antonia1990]

no, but I like it better than my first

I'm Afrikaans actually.

Eventhough my life mostly 'happens' in Afrikaans I feel almost bi-lingual anyway. In my country we start with English in 1st grade and encounter it everywhere. I only read English books because, when it comes to reading, watching tv and listening to music, etc. English just feels more natural to me... I feel like a bit of a traitor saying that actually

I also understand Dutch and Flemish because they are so similar to Afrikaans. I hope to learn more African languages in the future though.

My language is Czech- so I am not a native speaker of the English. But I like this language very much. Because, it has many essential words. I like to use it, in writing and speaking, occasionally. It is most popular language to learn in all the world. We can use him almost everywhere with confidence. I am begginer in this language. So, I make mistakes. I am glad, that I have found this forum.

First language is Norwegian for me. I would call English my second language, as it is the foreign language I'm most familiar with. After one year in Germany, my German is getting better, but I would say that English is to prefer 9 out of 10 times over German. When it comes to misspelling and grammatic errors, I would like to add that I would appreciate corrections more than they would piss me off, it's a good way to improve!

No it is not...

But I feel it as my own language, since my study is English literature...

I love it, and I feel it so expressive...

I'm good with English....or I don't know...Maybe not

suprising!suprising~~i thought majority of people on this site speak English as their first language~I speak Chinese as my mother language~I started learning English since my age 10, and I found I was so fond of this language, my dream at that time was being a diplomat, and my passion towards learning English never gets reduced, non stop absorbing the culture relates to English,I'm so pround of the history of my own country,meanwhile love English culture ardently.I chose English literature and Linguistics as my major in University,so, now here I am surfing on this site~ and still dream about being a diplomat someday~but i think it would become true until i get rid of my laziness and to make really good effort for it~
