Languages (engelse tekst)

[lolala]

Hey,

kan iemand me helpen met het zoeken van fouten in deze tekst? Denk dat er geen meer in staan maar ja ik ben niet zo goed in engels...

Today, it’s necessary that you speak more than one language. Everybody knows one language, his mother tongue, but when you works at an international company, you’ll be able to speak a global language, in the most cases it’s English, so it’s recommend that you know the basic of the English language.

But studying another language isn’t easy, because you must studying all the vocabulary, in some cases, the vocabulary of the language you’re learning likes at a language you already knows. For me, the most difficult part of a language it’s without any doubt the grammar rules and the pronunciation. The grammar problems you can solve by learning all the rules, but the rules are always different in each language and you’ll have always exceptions on the basic rules, so it’s very complicated. For the speaking problems it’s a question of practice and speak it much as you can, and don’t be afraid to speak, everybody makes faults.

In the future I won’t study any special language like Spanish or some other cultural language. I’ll study my basics languages like Dutch, French, English and maybe German. Because if you trying to find a good paid job, you will have the basics knowledge of these languages. When you take a look at the internet to find a job, you will read most of the time that you must have a basic knowledge of French, Dutch and English. We must speak French because we live in a country where we speak two or three languages under witch French.

A basic knowledge of the English language is necessary for communicate with a lot op people because, like I said in the beginning, English is the global language. If there is a communication problem by the lack of language skills, they can speak all the time English and they will understand each other.

So the conclusion is that everybody needs to know more than one language and especially English, because that’s the global language in the world we live in.

Today, it’s necessary that you speak more than one language. Everybody knows one language, his mother tongue, but when you work at an international company, you should be able to speak a global language, in the most cases it’s English, so it’s recommend that you know the basic of the English language.

In the future I won’t study any special languages like Spanish or some other cultural language (wat bedoel je hier te zeggen???) . I’ll study my basic languages like Dutch, French, English and maybe German. Because if you try to find a well paying job, you will have to have the basic knowledge of these languages. When you take a look at the internet to find a job, most of the time you will read that you must have a basic knowledge of French, Dutch and English. We must speak French because we live in a country where we speak two or three languages under which French.

A basic knowledge of the English language is necessary for communicating with a lot op people because, like I said in the beginning, English is the global language (wat bedoel je hier mee?? Engels is de 'taal van de wereld'?? Dat onderbouw je nergens... Waarom is Engels 'the global language'??). If there is a communication problem by the lack of language skills, they can speak English all the time and they will understand each other.

So (ik zou zelf het woordje 'so' niet gebruiken hier, het klinkt heel verveeld namelijk...) the conclusion is that everybody needs to know more than one language and especially English, because that’s the global language in the world we live in.

-------------------------

Ik heb toch nog veel fouten gevonden en ik denk dat je nog even moet sleutelen aan de zinnen - die soms erg lang zijn en waar veel herhaling in zit - en breng wat meer structuur aan. Onderbouw waarom Engels zo belangrijk is volgens jou. Waarom is dat niet Mandarijn Chinees, bijvoorbeeld?

Ik vind 'Nowadays' beter klinken dan ''Today'. Volgens mij klopt het laatste ook niet. 'Vandaag moet je meerdere talen kennen' lijkt me niet echt de zin die je bedoelt.

In die 1e zin moet van 'recommend' nog 'recommended' gemaakt worden.

In die 2e zin vind ik t woordje 'that' niet echt mooi staan. Ik zou i.p.v. 'that' dus gewoon nog een keer 'the vocabulary' neerzetten.

Inderdaad, die had ik helaas over het hoofd gezien.

Dat kan natuurlijk ook. Het is wat dat betreft maar net waar je de voorkeur aan geeft. Ik vind die zin zoals die er staat overigens prima.
