    Xonia (young Romanian popstar) lives in Australia.
    What made you move to Australia and how difficult was learning English for you?

    well to answer ur question mike : I LOVE AUSTRALIA!!! it's hot and the wether is nice all the time(mostly). the people are great but brisbane is a big city. but first wen i left romania i went to new zealand because my dad had work there so me and my mum moved. then he got a job in australia which led us here. and stevo i guess ity was a bit hard learning the language but when you go to schol\ol and learn everything in english it gets easy. now people think im from america or that im a true aussie. lol it's quite funny because no one can sayy my last name... and im not gonna tell you guys because its embarassing:-$
    well byeeeeee xxxxxx

    Bună tuturor ! Sunt Cristi, locuiesc (īncă ) īn Romānia. Am descoperit accidental acest website și acest forum... Și vă pot spune că sunt uimit... Mi-am petrecut ultimele două zile citind toate paginile... Sunteți uimitori... Deja unii dintre voi cunosc foarte bine gramatica limbii romāne. Dya, ești uimitoare! Citind posturile tale mi-am clarificat unele nelămuriri. Atāt privind limba romānă cāt și engleza. Mike, ai avansat surprinzător...
    Eu sunt inginer. Dar, dacă pot ajuta, o fac cu plăcere. Felicitări tuturor !
    Cristi

    P.S. Am scris totul īn limba romānă pentru că scopul acestui forum este să-i ajutăm pe cei care doresc să īnvețe limba noastră

    Translator anyone? LOL Afterall, the topic heading is "Off-topic discussions in English".

    Oh come on Smilleygal. Tell us. We are learning Romanian so we might pronounce it right.

    @smfc_stevo_smfc
    Translation:
    Hello everyone! My name is Cristi an I (still ) live in Romania. I have discovered this website and this forum by accident... And I can tell you that I am surprised... I spent my last two days reading all the pages... Some of you allready have a very good knoledge of romanian grammair. Dya, you are amazing. Reading your posts I have understood some issues. Both in romanian and english. Mike, you have made amazing progress.
    I am an engineer (said that because i am not a teacher neither linguist, so it is possible to make mistakes ). But if I can help, i'll do it with peasure. Good job everyone!

    Cristi

    As I said, I am an engineer so maybe translation is not so acurate, but you can get the point, isn't it?

    @Mike
    Thank you. You have some mistakes. I can't explain you as Dya does. But I can make some corrections:
    1. cuvintele frumoşi ----> cuvintele frumoase : un cuvānt - două cuvinte - so frumos must be fem. : frumoase
    2. īncerc bine ------> is better to use mă străduiesc; īncerc bine is wrong
    3. sper ca vrei să te īntorci. -----> could be: sper că te vei īntoarce.
    4. Īntotdeaună mi-aş place foarte mult toate corectari. --> If I undestand well the idea, could be: Īntotdeauna mi-ar plăcea foarte mult să mă corectezi. ( the correct infinitive is: a plăcea - see DEX Ro or http://dexonline.ro/corect.php )

    Thank you for the all the corrections Cristi. They are very helpful to me.

    I didn't realize cuvānt is neuter. I will remember now. Neuter nouns I must study better. I make this mistake always.


    Stevo, if you want my translation also...

    I thank you for the nice words. still I make many mistakes but i try well and sometimes I manage ok.

    I'm glad you like the forum and hope you want to return.

    Always I would like all corrections very much.
