Profile
Born in Scotland, moved to Ireland when I was young. I moved around a bit also living in New york, California (where my mother still lives), Australia and now moved to Germany through my work.
This move though, is the first country I have lived in that English is the not the first language, so I am trying to learn German through whatever means possible.

Activities
- Cross can be a few things, one would be an emotion similar to anger. "My parents were cross when they found out I broke the window". Cross can also be two perpendicular lines such as X, which could indicate something is wrong. This would be used in the games "noughts and crosses". When the cross is like this, +, it could sybolise the christian faith. "Jesus was nailed to the cross". Across means basically to go from one side to the other. "Using a boat makes it easier to get across the river to the other side". In this example you could subsitute "across" with "cross" but you would need to remove the verb "get" from the sentence. It would then be "Using a boat makes it easier to cross the river" Through would indicate passing through the middle of something. "I had to climb in through the window"0 votedFebruary 4, 20110

I was talking to Irish to a fellow Irish friend in Germany and his pronounciation was different (His was Connemara Irish whereas mine would be closer to Munster Irish.0 votedJanuary 14, 20110
