His first language is monkey and he knows it. It's Dutch monkey though. His "ooks" sound like "oaks". :kookoo:

951795 I first learned English in school when I was 12, high school (junior high I guess in US terms). I had already picked up a bit from the tv though before. We got German, French and English in school then. I had picked up a LOT of German by then, was pretty much 100% in understanding it. So German is my second language I suppose.

951793 Sadly no. Hehe. Neither is my German I'm afraid (not in speaking and especially writing). Although I get Germans who think I am German, so I apparently don't have an accent.

He has a strong accent although speaks extremely good English, better than most Americans. He uses British phrases sometimes and it sounds like an British accent mixed in with the Dutch at times. I count on getting a few "OI!"s when we chat and if I haven't gotten one in due time, I turn up my :smartass:ness a notch or two to make sure I do. :giggle:

If he's had a few beers and/or is tired, his "th"s come out as "d"s since the Dutch language doesn't have the "th" sound. Words that would begin with "th" in English often begin with "d" in Dutch. At the same time, his g's get furry because the Dutch language doesn't have the English "g" sound. I still haven't gotten their "g" sound down.

Is it "cute"? Hrm.. dunno.. it's a furrin accent so it's sexeh in that respect. :nod:

Who else thinks that to go with his new custom title, Crumb should have a giant dildo for an avatar? Masked for Halloween of course. :masked: It can be a Halloweenie. :giggle:

Here's hoping it's dry tomorrow morning so I can ride my own bike tomorrow with the herd. I'm not familiar enough with my new, bigger bike yet to ride it if it's still spitting out in the morning so I'll be :gasp: riding "bitch" if it is.. leaving my new baby home. :cries:

English at 12, German at 7 and French at 8. German would be my second language and French third.
