Life / Polish vs British vs American - Clash of cultures [390]

English is a mixture of Germanic language and of Latin via French and that's why there are numerous (around 40%) English words coming from French and it was a time when they spoke French in Britain.

quite agree the industrial Germany has excellent english as a second language, it is also taught in Austria from a young age. I prefer the French language to German but the fact is French is no longer the language of diplomats and royalty (particularly the French royalty) but the French people seem to have a chip on their shoulder about it. in Germany some board meetings are carried out in english because it takes less words to but a point across.

However the fact that English via King James Bible is a mix of languages is i think a difficult language to learn as there doesn't seem to be any logic

for example

house - houses
mouse - mice

Law / Starting a seasonal work agency in Tricity.... [15]

you seem to have a bee in your bonnet but i am not sure why, it could also be because the unemployment benefit is so good in france it can be a disincentive to work. usually the employer pays those charges on to of the 1 400 gross.
