And it's good to note that English is an absolutely atrocious language to learn, so it's not exactly easy or anything.

ESL needs someone who speaks german and knows the pro-scene; those ppl don't grow on trees for christs sake

For me as a Dutch person English was a delight to learn, really easy language.
So is German though, was also easy to learn.

Good thing I can understand everything being said right now.

Terrible, brutal, etc.... Compared to other European languages, it is much, much more difficult to properly learn.

The English Language is hard to learn for 3 simple reasons:

a) it's a cluster-fuck of every European language.
b) there are far too many synonyms and antonyms in the language.
c) 18 tenses and 3 aspects.

Nah its alright, you should try and learn german as we are forced to in denmark.

Der, die, das, den, dem, des etc. I mean how the fuck am I going to figure out what is what. The fact that english uses "the" when talking about any thing makes it SO much easier than other languages.

Lol yeah noticed that too. Can't be healthy and hoping his back isn't going down on the long run because of this. Also it makes him seem really sloppy and a bit stereotype like.

Depends a lot on where you live. Imagine living in Belgium, you don't really get any good English education in school and all television/media is in French. If they buy SC2 they'll play it in French, not English. Talking about Wallonie obviously.

Oh and.

+1 for take.


It's been answered several times.

It's blatantly obvious that he isn't fluent in English.

are we in a misunderstanding here? I was saying people wanted to see Idra being asked about balance on TV.

I know (but I'm not yet fluent in) German, and it's infinitely easier to learn/use than English.

are we in a misunderstanding here? I was saying people wanted to see Idra being asked about balance on TV.


My bad. I thought you were referring to why the interviewer's questions were coming off as tactless.
