Help me improve my English!

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but in the UK, there are some instances where what we say is not what we mean. Being from a different country, you may find it useful if you ever decide to venture across La Manche :3

They're not relevant all the time, though :D

Heh that was fun to read! :D Thanks!

Free bump :D

Thank youuuu <3 ~
Were my explanations any help by the way? x)
 
Yeah, they were :D Thanks!

I can't believe I actually wrote COE, though :P I pronounce it the french way in my mind, and the french pronunciation of "I" sounds a lot like the english pronunciation of "E"... I guess I got confused XP

Yes that's what I thought happened, it didn't seem too weird to me n_n It was super hard for me at first to differentiate J/G and E/I when I began learning English X_x

Yes haha that's exactly what it is. I've also seen it spelled "smart aleck", either way works.
