I didn't say you had poor english! Many non-native english-speakers aren't poor in it. Consider for example Estelyn Telcontar, dancing spawn of ungoliant or HerenIstarion. If you didn't know where were they from, would you know they weren't native english-speakers? (My point is that many non-native english-speakers have fluent english.)

You have just such "german air" around you, and I still remember the thread about girls' names where you said your surname was german. May I ask what did you finally name her?
