Hi there! I'm Ainda of the GreenForest (or from Itheralas, as some might know me). I'm 16 years old and dutch! Yes people, I'm from the Netherlands and have an adiction to English instead of freaking weird dutch. I'm pretty good in English according to the Dutch measurements, but feel free to correct any major flaws you find. It will only help me! ^.^ I love manga, reading, manga, drawing, manga, sleeping and manga. Oh, and did I mention manga already? ^.^ I've got a lot of rpg experience and am a hyperactive poster usually spoken. Unfortunatly due to my bad grades lately, I won't be able to post as much as I would probably want to, which will make it about 3 to 4 times a week (a hour per time). I hope you will understand. Anything else? Hm... Oh yeah, the colour of my socks is on the moment light blue and my favourite color is green. M fav. movies are LotR, the Curse of the Ring and Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Oh! and I'm a LotR FREAK! But I think by the look of things here, I'm not the only one... ^.^
Feel free to ask more!!!
Sayonara, *~Ainda~*

Hai! Nice intro, nice English. Amin mela members with experience from different countries, though we usually speak universal Elvish. Monty Python, lol! We are the Jedi Knights who say NI!

Greetings! I am Godric, late of Medieval England. Welcome to the Realm Where Insanity Is King! I hope you enjoy your stay. Why do you prefer English over Dutch?

That was my first question... I wish I could speak Dutch... «mutters about Spanish teachers who don't speak Spanish and the apparent lack of learning in the U.S. of A.»
Welcome to ye! Monty Python is the... almost coolest person ever to write comedy, and Tolkien is... everything else. I'd say something creative and stuff, but my head's too full of fluff.
Ooo... rhyme... and metre... «bounces»

Greetings! Personally, I don't care for monty python, but that's just me. In my opinion, British humor is stupid, but my bro likes it, so I put up with it. I prefer Star Wars and such...

Welcome! I'm Mekka, and I like terrorizing new members... Just kidding. We're very glad to see you, and very glad you speak English! Because I don't think anyone here speaks Dutch... except maybe Thorongil, but he's gone. And I think he was Norweigian anyway. Have fun... you sound like you'll fit right in. Post away! (It might help to register first... heh... ;D )

Yes, Thorongil was Norwegian... And I don't speak any other language, unless it is a little bit of Sindarin... And all that strange, confusing language that I speak when I'm in fanfic plotting mode, and nobody knows what I'm talking about...

Heehee, yes. Welcome, Ainda! With your interests, looks like you'll fit in here just fine (obviously). And to be honest, your English is better than what I've seen from some who have it as their first language. And then there's the language of vagueness...but we won't get into that again.

My dad says French is difficult to speak... To many rolled "r's"...

What?! It is not hard at all! Once you get Spanish down, French is a breeze!

Well, like I said, that's what my dad said... and he's part French-Canadian, so there!

Yes, I guess so.. French-Canadian is different than French.. They have a different way of saying things.. So, it may be harder for the French-Canadian dialect but, French is easy..

Alrighty, just work on getting Spanish under your belt and once, you have it and feel comfortable with it, try French. I think you would be amazed at how alike they both are!

Well, they are both Latin based, are they not?
