Just glancing at your post history, you did a damn good job learning for being self-taught! I would not have guessed you were not even a native speaker.
(The post just before you made this one may be an exception, but then that post is an exception to all languages.)
Thanks a lot! I’ve been an avid reader as a kid, I use it a lot online, and I also used to travel quite a bit for work, although that probably hindered me more than helping, as, aside from a bunch of visits to the US a looong time ago, I rarely visited English-speaking countries; everywhere else I always had to adapt my English to the local accents and common errors.
The best was visiting other romance-language-speaking countries, where we started off with English, then began incorporating each others’ language until every time we ended up with weird mixes that I liked to call Desperanto.
