| Thanks for your responses, chaps. Haha, it's certainly flattering to be evenly mildly compared with this savant you mention, but I have to apply myself quite hard to my language learning. Most of what I wrote to you in Dutch I was able to pattern-generate from German ("Ich bin kein Niederländer... |

| ^ Thanks for your inquiry. I'll have to answer this in English (also, so the other forumites can understand). Lol, my girlfriend is English like me. Basically, I'm a Germanic languages lover, who started with the Nordic languages over 20 years ago, and who has been working on German more recently, a... |

| Ich kriege (fast) jede Woche eine Deutschstunde. Es ist auch meine Absicht, Plattdeutsch lesen zu lernen. Leider ist diese Sprache sehr gefährdet. |

| Ik ben geen Nederlander, maar ik leer nu het Nederlands, zodat ik deze mooie taal lezen kan. Juist nu lees ik Orwells Dierenboerderij. Daarna zou ik graag een roman van Bernlef lezen. Ik bekijk ook dvds over de Gouden Eeuw. |

Hi Folks,
I have just received a formal diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder (what the clinician says would have been called Asperger Syndrome in previous times).
It was well worth the time and money to pursue the diagnosis even though I am in my 40s. |

| Not a monologue, but music playing constantly. But then I listen to my music almost every opportunity I get. It keeps my mind off other things. Interesting. Is it new music you come up with or is it music you heard before? Always music I've heard before. I am not musical in the slightest myself :) |

| Hi Folks, Hope you are all well and you had a nice Christmas. Since I'm new on these forums, I thought I should say hello and a few things about myself. I'm male, almost 45, and live in the UK. I've known since at least my teens that I am somehow different – or at least, this is what I perceive – to... |
