Re: Hello!!!
Hello, wellcome
Where are you from exactly?
In my view it is better to say: However it is my opinion that English is certainly the first lingua franca.
You are absolutely right more than 300 million people all over the world speak English.
It is cetainly the most commonly language all over the world when you combine native and non-native speakers.
Tell a little bit more about you?
What are you doing, or what is your profession?

In my opinion English is a language you can use in nearly every situation.
Furthermore, English is also a global language and therefore I would like to learn it.

Re: Hello!!!
Is even professional the right translation, because this word means a job with an accademich degree?
If, I am a craftsman, or a cashier, a salesman, or whatelse, I ought to say "job?"
Am I right in saying that?

Re: Hello!!!
First of all you didn't say "professional" earlier. You used the word "profession" correctly.andy55 hat geschrieben:Is "professional" even the correct translation, because this word means a job which requires an academic degree?
In case I am a craftsman, a cashier, a salesman or something similar what I ought to call my "job"?
Am I expressing myself correctly?
Secondly I don't think that "professional" implies an academic degree.
A professional is someone who engages in a pursuit or activity professionally.
A craftsman is a worker who practices a trade or handicraft
or one who creates or performs with skill or dexterity especially in the manual arts (e.g. jeweler).
A profession is the name of many things:
a : a calling requiring specialized knowledge and often long and intensive academic preparation
b : a principal calling, vocation, or employment
c : the whole body of persons engaged in a calling
The vocation is the work in which a person is employed.

Re: Hello!!!
Hehe sure! Then I tell something about me. I come from Kohlscheid. It is a small town near Aachen. At the moment, I can't do a Job. Because (Silvester 2008/2009) I have had a very heavy accident. And at the moment I am in rehabilitation. But after the rehab, at first I would like to do any things in the company of my brother. He has a Label and there I would like to take over some work.
Actually my target was the police. But through the accident is this "dream" to skidded into a far distance. But I am not so sad which some people maybe think. The live goes on!!! And maybe I have the chance to go to the police. The end of applicationtime is 32. And than I have some years time for my application.
Greetings from Kohlscheid/Aachen

Re: Hello!!!
Before the accident is happend, I did a voluntary social year in a school for mentally/ and physical handicapped pupils. After I had done the first half, the accident is happend. It was a carbon monoxide poisoning that I get, in the house of my (ex) girlfriend. First I lay for 4-5 weeks in coma. Among other things through the accident I have had a heart attack, a complete destruction of muscles and nerves, kidney failure, damages at my brain, paralysis of legs and arms, epilepsy, pancreatitis, my vegitative nervessystem was damage, high blood pressure and finally I have had infected with the MRSA virus. For this list, I was looking in my medical file.
My motivation to will be a policeman was my father. He is a policeman and this was the reason why I have chose it. But I will see what for job opportunities will come in the next "years".
And what are you doing occupational?
Best greetings!!!

Re: Hello!!!
Hey Sinner, you didn't ask me personally, of course, but I hope I might answer the question anyway. I'm an English teacher. Day in, day out, I explain how to use this wonderful language. And I can't stop myself, it seems, even in my spare time...Sinner hat geschrieben: Hey Sinner, wonderful to have you here after all you've been through! And great idea to improve your English, I would say, because it's the best language there is!!!
May I correct your mistakes?!

Re: Hello!!!
Puh,... that´s ah realy gripping history. How are you now?
Nowadays people not have only one profession but rather two or three
You can learn your whole life if you want to do this!
Now I´m an office clerk, but it´s not realy interesting.
Therefore I´m attend the Higher Technical College and in the future I will study architecture on a University.
But it´s a long way

Re: Hello!!!
I think in my opinion it is hard to learn a language, fluently and perfect but to teach a language as a non-native speaker must be very difficult.
