There comes a time when you get the hang of Romance languages and learning a new one is just a matter of exposing yourself enough to it. You're just learning a new dialect of modern Latin after all.

Help me...

I can help you and would love to as it may also benefit me, but it's really up to you. Are you truly willing to learn?
By the way, meow meow seems like a fairly logical reason to give up. :P

Thank you very much. Then I may try again not now but some day. I lost interest in it all the sudden. Maybe I just need time to take some rest..that would be all I need to take the grab again.

I don't know what you meant by that but thank you as always. It's really okay for me to feel helpless at times. :)

I am sorry for my mistake. Too much cees in those phrases.:-) (That was actually the point/idea of posting these two "classics".)

I also didn't know my message was posted, I had some difficulties in getting the message posted.

No worries. Even native speakers do this common mistake. It's like using "sa" in place of "ça".

Examples:
- Sa va bien.
- Combien sa coûte?

I may be a "grammar nazi", but can assure you that it's painful to see, over and over.
:cry:

Then I must be obsessed with grammar also, because I want to write correc text.

But someone else might have a more practical approach of writing/speaking a language...

What is or is not practical depends on your goals. I've never understood how so many people can decide so casually to neglect an essential tool to learn anything.

Well, I don't know what you meant with your reply. How was my post so cryptic?

Well, I meant for example that while speaking it doensn't really matter how grammatically correct you say things, it just about communicating yourself in understandable way.

Text/written language is different thing though. But it depends also on situation, with frends and acquiantances you can write more casually that for example with you boss or complete strangers.
