RE: REWRITE. Polishing the First Draft of your Novel or Short Story (Installment 1 of 4)
So many errors of grammar just waiting there to be made! Only last year did I learn the difference between ... and ....
The English language is difficult all the way around. I'm so glad I didn't have to learn it as a second language. I'm learning Dutch now and that's no walk in the park either. ; )
I've written several articles in Polish, and now dream in Polish too :) The more languages I learn the more the dendritic fireworks spark in those different languages ... different moods, different cultures and different philosophies to life.
With Dutch you'll be just fine - as it's a great simple Euro language. Want something tougher? Try Polish or Europe's worst ... HUNGARIAN!! ... with its 15 cases ... Yes! 15!! A writer's worst nightmare!! P.S. With Dutch I recommend speaking with @ocrdu
Wow, Hungarian sounds difficult. I tried learning Mandarin some years back. I got the basic phrases down but don't remember anything short of "yes" and "no" now. Thanks for the referral on learning Dutch. I'm using Duolingo now to pick up the basics.
Hungarian in one of the top #5 most difficult languages in the world - it makes Mandarin and Polish look easy! Thai is a top #5 bitch too. Worth a Google search on a quiet day:

Thanks for the link! I'll check it out. I don't think I'll be choosing Hungarian or Thai any time soon. ; )
