Hello, my name is Spencer and I'm 18 years old. Right now English is all I know, and I want to change that. I am interested in many languages (including Russian, Italian, German, Japanese, and Spanish), but I'm not sure which I should attempt to learn first, which is why I came here. My hope is that by conversing with a native speaker I will gain interest in one particular language and stick with it, while also helping them learn my language.

    It is very weird!!!

    My mom asked me, "Did you go to the river with this car?" refering to the one she was currently driving.  She knows I didn't go with this car and that my friend had picked me up, but she asked me with a serious face. 
    I didn't tell her how I nearly died in the river because I was sure she would get upset, but I couldn't hide what happened anymore, so I told her, "Actually ...." 

    By the way, the reason she asked is because my grandmother is not doing very well now. She looks like she will die soon.... but she felt something yesterday. 
    She was saying "The car fell down the river and the police want to know who's car" 
    She is not senile as far as I know, so my mom felt so wired about what she was saying. 

    When I heard it I also felt weird.  Has anyone else had an experience like this?

    Yes, the difference is religion. The meaning of both phrases is the same, but people who are non-religious or prefer not to say what their beliefs are would say "my gosh" instead of "my god".
