Hi!
I`m Ann-Christine from Germany. I know Marya since she was by the band "Vanilla Ninja", I think her first solo song "Could you" was great. Normaly I don`t like Metal. But when Marya do it, I like it.
(sorry for my bad english, but I am not sooo good in english)
Hi Anne-Christine :-)
Dont worry your english is fine, nice to meet you, and hope to speak a bit more throughout the threads:hello:
I'm sure I replied to this :hmm: I remember typing it out lol.
Hi Anne-Christine :wave:
You're English is far better than my German will ever be lol. You all put us Brits to shame :-D
i'd definately agree with that:hmm:
Do people learn German at schools in UK ?
In UK schools you can learn German. I learnt it for about half a year, my school had a rota system so introduce us to the different lanuages we could take for GCSE.
The schools here do teach other languages Nicola, but not like you're all taught Englishs. They teach it a few hrs a week or something stupid like that. I don;t know anyone who is English that can speak another language like you all can English. Then again we don't need to when you;re all so good at it :-p
I was in Sweden recently with a German friend. We went to buy a ticket for a Meat Loaf show and we went to the box office and hey presto My German friend and the Swedish lady behind the ticket boot both spoke to each other in English :-D I was amazed, they didn't understand why I was though as apparantely that's what happens lol. Makes it very easy for us. So thank you all of you :-) I'll repay you by correcting you on your mistakes lol. I'm teacher to many of my foriegn friends lol. Daniel included :-) and Dominic who is on here :lmao:

I know a few people who can speak other languages really well but they've either had parents who speak other languages or they've really wanted to learn and have a natural affinity with languages.
I think we're taught languages a little to late. The best time to learn is when you're young. My children will be learning sign language and I'll send them round to my friends mum to learn Italian and French lol.
they teach sign language at playgroups and stuff now, casey is getting very good, i'm dead chuffed with her.Also alot of kids programmes now have some kind of signing to.
Not to sure about languages though, dont think that kinda stuff starts till pre-school type time.
I learn German in school
Right this second I am doing the four test papers I was set during the summer, I also need to learn the 20 essential verbs and write an account of my holiday before I go back. Tomorrow! :shock:
:shock: you're in school :shock:
Don't take this wrong hun but how old are you??
15
I'm going into year 11. tomorrow. ARGH!
wow...if you dont mind me saying so you look very mature for your age then
I really do mean that in a good way :-)
Thank you
It has its avantages lol
like we went on a cruise when I was 13 and I managed to get into the Casino and play on the slot machines with out being thrown out - might have been due to the fact I had a pint in my hand...
But then again we went on holiday in April and in St Lucia some guy was asking me if I was married! I hastliy got back into the taxi after that lol
lmao i always used to look really young so i had the opposite problem lol when i was 21 i tried to buy a film that was rated 15 and was still asked for ID :hmm: i was super annoyed i can tell you lol
My mum had a similar problem, she was about 32 and in a hotel bar in America with me (4) and my brother (1) and they wouldn't serve her because they didn't believe she was over 21?!
i seem to have aged alot since i've had children though :hehe:

Hi Ann,
I'm also a fan of Marya's from the very beginning, from her earliest VN times, when she was still Maarja. I only liked VN because of her - she made VN a great band - that's why they were terrible after she left...
Marya has an unbelievable voice, don't you agree? She has that "something special" about it. It's so great, I can listen to her songs over and over and over and not get bored!
Anyway, better do some work. Love to hear from you!

Hi Bloodflowerz
Nice to see you here and hope to speak more in the future.
Marya has a really powerful voice for sure, it shows thru on every song on the EP imo
Can't wait to see her do it live myself :cool:
Daniel says something else... but thank you, Deb :-)
Ah but that's because Daniel thinks his English is better ;-) I am also Daniels English teacher :lmao:
:wave: Hi Mike (bloodflowerz)
Great to see you here as well :cool:
You have to get posting more for a chance to beat some of these at the merchadise prize lol

They say it's good to teach children before they start saying their first words. It apparently makes it easier for them to learn languages. It's also helpful in later life, I wish I knew more signs. I started learning sign language at secondary school because their was a deaf unit but then I left so have been teaching myself. I'm better at finger spelling.
lmao i always used to look really young so i had the opposite problem lol when i was 21 i tried to buy a film that was rated 15 and was still asked for ID :hmm: i was super annoyed i can tell you lol
Me to, I'm always asked for ID. You haven't aged since children, you still look young thats a good thing now :-)

So, "just a bit different" eh? "Maarja" was missing, that changed everything for me... :evil:
No, jokes aside, the rest of VN to me were just decoration, they weren't musicians with all their hearts like Marya was.
By the way, you being German, how do you like the band I use as a nickname, "bloodflowerz"?
Metal!
bloodflowerz
ME being English I haven't got a clue what bloodflowerz means Mike :hehe: Is it a German Band?
