TCL-MUMPING: My cousin from HK came over to England and went to college to do GCSE English so she can get into uni, it was a one year course (usually 2 years) but its really for resits for ones who didnt pass first time round. when she got her result... she got a C, where as the resitters - all English born and bread....only manage a D or lower, and these are like there 2nd or 3rd attempts.................

The guy can't even tell the difference between England and the UK so he's showing his own ignorance.

umm not sure if the new starters are asain or not, he just came out with it today.

i can understand people find it difficult to understand the way they speak, but at least theyre making an effort to speak English. Try speaking in their langauge...? if you went abroad like... Norway, or should i say... France ... thailand, India, China... what langague do you speak?

[TCL-MUMPING]

How do you know they're not English just by looking at them?

TCL-MUMPING: i'm born n bred in England, am i English? when people look at me they would say i'm chinese..... I am chinese but im English.... or could really say Chinglish?... so confusing :-P

I have been accused of being Scottish..............I blame my father.

[tamborine]

English is almost universal due to the internet......most english working in those countries do learn the language.
