Melusine,

Thanks !

But, you know, my reading/writing English is MUCH MUCH better than my hearing/speaking, since I have quite nobody to talk to (apart from a American from work now and then), even if I always try to watch movies in original version. I shiver thinking about all the weird accents you and Charlie speak about ... Brrrrrrrrr ! I wouldn't understand a thing !

And besides, playing AD&D, working with computers AND not being by far patient enough to wait for all the great Fantasy book being translated ... that was what really put me into it. I was no more than an average English student at school, and the first I have read in English was VERY hard. And now I am SO glad I have made the effort !

Besides, you wouldn't believe how silly translated AD&D vocabulary can be ...
