So not to be ignorant but this board is full of people from all over the world from North America to Asia to middle east all over Europe etc. How do you all know English so well? I never really see threads of just anon from Germany talking to one another in German or any other language/country. You all mostly seem pretty good at reading writing English. Are most of you using translators (most computers now translate the page into your native language) or do they just teach English everywhere?
>>540716078>or do they just teach English everywhereyes.
>>540716078I'm german but use 4chan since 15 years or so. After 5 years I was basically fluent with english. The school english was a good base of course.The funny thing is that I get beaten here for every little mistake :) ...when I write "forefer" or "I prever this" people get mad. Yeah, so sorry.
>>540716078Everyone speaks English because the US is the world's protagonist
I can't speak a word of english.I use an in-real-time-translator which does everything for me.Thank you Japan. :)
>>540716078There are fewer than a dozen real people using this board that aren’t doing it as part of their job.
>>540717226TPBP This is also why 99% of the threads are thirdies obsessing about our politics; not the reverse.
>>540717278>fewer than a dozen real people using this boardI'm pretty sure that thousands are here for entertainment. They maybe don't post much, but /pol/ is still popular for the lulz and the hate.
>>540716078I've been browsing image boards and english forums for like 12 years nowIt just happens over time
>>540717226The UK you dumbfuck. We are like one of those late roman splinter states.
>>540716078>I never really see threads of just anon from Germany talking to one another in GermanKrautchannostalgie...
>>540717278Yep. and if you grasp near-perfect english you can spot the interlopers easy, often just noticing all the syntax errors and esl fuckupsI would hazard the organic posters these days is just 30-40% of traffic at most. 10 years ago it was about 80%. for anything fake and gay there are easy tells all over the board without giving them away.

>>540717997Smiley faces are okay, we can always do with a bit more positivity. Though you do use a memeflag which makes me think you're probably a fucking kike
>>540717584What year do you think it is? The average UK subject couldn't afford a single wide in Jackson MS
>>540716078It's 2026 anon. Everyone west of Iran knows enough english to be able to hold a text conversation.
>>540716078Most Europeans are fluent in 2-3 languages. I speak French (native language) and I took up Spanish early in school so It's my 2nd language then comes English in 3rd place
>>540716078Are you serious? Dear RETARD, English for at least a century is the international language of business.
>>540716078I always just assumed it was American expats. Probably wishful thinking on my part since I'd much rather just be conversing with Americans at all times.

>>540716078Wanted to play shadow hearts 2 when i was 15, the game was only in english. Played through the game with a dictionary on one hand translating all the dialogue. By the time i finished the game i had enough vocab and grammar knowledge to consume media in english. At some point i started reading my academic books in english too and over time took me to C2. I didn’t learn shit from highschool.
>>540717226Everyone speaks English because the English created modernity and over 2000 years developed a superior language which, like all our inventions and creations we shared with the world.
>>540718470In the judeo-anglo world your banker became your priest.
>>540716078English is the only relevant language so they HAVE to learn it or basically be cut out of all dialogue
>>540716078>How do you all know English so well?Is this your first day here? Over half of the posts are illegible ESL drivel
>>540717704You mad ;)
>>540716078When I was growing up the internet was mostly in English so you either dealt with it somehow or you didn't get access to like 80% of the shit you'd want to see
>>540719281American"s English is so poor they wouldn't know; they don't study phonics or read any classical texts; they learn from the TV and talking to each other so you can't blame them. Thats not even the worst part. You should delve into their Geography, History and Mathematics and wonder why they aren't angry at their teachers for failing to teach.
