ha! a story indeed! when i was lazy... i definitely would never write a reply that long.. so yay you! you're not that lazy after all!

u know very well that laziness can be beaten or defeated easly while doing things that u love (which r very few) & it's not that long it looks so cuz i didn't choose the font size properly ....

Hello, Thanks for this thread,
Emm I started loving English when I was at BEF before BEM now, I loved it so much I was the teacher's favourite pupil hhhhh she told me to continue and study in the university but when I passed to the 1st year my interest on it started to collapse day per day till I BAC then I started learning it again but I was that hight level I was upper intermediate when I got my Bac I chose to study English and I got my level raised dramatically exactly in the 2nd year in teh university coz I was learning Grmmar by heart and also reading and communicating on Oral expression classes...........How I loved it I guess watching Black people movies and listening to English Rap and R&B yeah for sure.

and sorry I want to draw your attention to a mistake in your topic
English is replaced with It in case it is an object I guess you know about this doesn't you and you got confused wether to choose Her or It, Her is used when the object is referring to a female (Human/ Animal)
It is used with stable things that got no life no breath no move you know like stone, wall, earth, ground, sky, pen ...etc

salam 3alykom
well thank you for the thread "first"
my storyyyyy
well when i was a child of 9 or 10 year i used to watch "power rangers" n "hana montana" so i was able to catch some words coz i'was hearing the word at the same time reading the arabic traduction n i remember that my first world was "over here"
then middle school i was a good student but i really wasn't care i used to care only about the score so my level decreased i n the 3rd year my teacher was a strange guy once he said for me that i'm 0000000 no i'm not so i worked hard to improve n i'm still learn
then in high school things have changed a lil bit i start to love english thanx to the encouragement of my teacher especially in writing he said that i have a special writing style the my second year was the best ever cus my sir was a great teacher better than the former one i used to spend hours in writing paragraphs he liked all what i wrote n he used to say that i'm great philo n that means alots form me n always pushes me to do my best n i 'm still learning every day

Well, I enjoyed reading all your stories, every story is different than other.
My story with English it's a little bit different too.

It started when I was at my fourth grad of primary school, I was 10, in our town -Boufarik- we had three schools they had some a unique experience and my old school -Oumu Salama- was one of them.
We had the choice to choose between French or English as a foreign lang_uage, so I want to my dad and I asked him about what I should choose, he told me look son, I can not choose for you, but I will help you to take the right choice, so he told me about French and how it's a limited lang_uage, just a few people who talk with it, and how English how it's an international lang_uage and how most people speak English, honestly I gave a whole conference, I can remember it, I was just ten

So I took my decision and I choosed my first foreign lang_uage as English , I thought I will be alone there, but we were about 37 students, we had the most lovely English teacher ever Miss Zhour, she was ... honestly I need so much time to explain how she was wonderful, and how she educated us before she taught us, she is amazing teacher, I never forget her.
I can not forget that lovely time, when I met new people and they ask me about school, and when they ask me about French, I answer them "I'm sorry I don't speak French" most of them asked me this question "why !! because they don't let you, right!!" - For people who don't know about the life at the 90's in Algeria, some places here in Algeria, some people they were not okay about learning foreign lang_uage, specially French, their reason is because foreigners are unbelieving people, so I know many people from my generation who didn't learn French for many years, some of theme they learned it until high school- returning to me now, well my answer about their question "why you don't speak French" it will be " because I speak English" you can not imagine the look at their faces, "a little boy as you can speak English ... wow that's amazing, you must be a genius, speak to me in English" well, I just say the usual "My name is Ahmed I'm ten, I live ..." they open their mouths and say "wow" we were kings, sometimes I pass by a coffee house or some public place, and they call me "hey boy come here ... speak to this person in English, I told him that you could but he didn't believe" so I say the usual magical words " Hello, my name is Ahmed I'm ten, I live ... bla bla bla" hahah great time anyway I can remember many things about English I have a looooooooooooooooong story with it, maybe next time I will tell you about something else.

May Allah bless you all,

Salam

For people who don't know about the life at the 90's in Algeria, some places here in Algeria, some people they were not okay about learning foreign lang_uage, specially French, their reason is because foreigners are unbelieving people, so I know many people from my generation who didn't learn French for many years, some of theme they learned it until high school-

I know exactly what are you talking about, I guess it was not to forbid it all! it was to reduce using it Doesn't it........look now the mess we live in due to the French aaah I hate this....sometimes I just wonder why all that why they mess with our education sometimes ppl study in arabic in secondary school when they go to the university they find it in French and sometimes the contrary in some modules, Normally we study French as a foreign ******** not to use it in our daily life or in the administration


They don't give the Child in the primary school the opportunity to learn his mothertongue even and in 2nd year they teach him French what the hell is this when I remember this I lose my mind I guess they were right about this coz Algeria was going to be French one.......take a child from CEM and ask him to write a paragraphe in Arabic .....See the level
auogol said it .....we'll be back after 50 years
and they say 50 years of Independency hhhhhhhh I laugh at this too much we still independent culturally, Politiccally, Invisibally and Allah knows i'm neither that good at politic nor I love it but to see what happen I wonder why El3arbi ben mhidi is a myrtiar now is not to fight France and french
If he would be alive did he love French in primary schools from 2 nd grade!!!!! or french in everywhere!
If yes I'm reasonable If not yes I'm reasonable coz I'm sure

Thank you ^^ I liked your story

I don't really know about this one , well pets I think we can replace them with her or him coz they're surving there is a soul on 'em

[Doo_down]

originally we can't... but it's kind of new ... cuz they never refer to wild animals by he/she .... & when they meet someone else's pet they refer to it by "it" but when it will be familliar to them they'll start "personalisating"( i don't know if the words exists) it by calling it he/she there r no fixed rules abt it ... it just happens naturaly in dailly speaking

[♥إكْــــــرَامْ♥]

Yep we all do have a story with it don't we XD .. here's mine if you can call it a story

When i was young i used to " borrow " my sister's mp3 and listen to her english songs ,

it didn't help me ( learn it ) but the lyrics got stuck in my head .. in other words , it helped my prononciation XD

Also , I watched movies in english ( Mbc 2 and action are actually useful for something :d )

and some of those english Tv shows in Mbc 3 ( that's so raven and other popular shows at that time XD ) and in a year or so i could speak it automatically

Not to mention reading stories online and so on .. it really helps with your vocabulary

so I guess the secret to becoming fluent in any languag' is to listen and understand .. this is after all the way we learned when we were young

I really enjoyed reading everyone’s unique story, Thank you for sharing^^, er ..er.. My story is quite strange (weird experience) lol I didn’t show any interest in English, neither as a child nor as a middle school student , though my scores were often high I don’t know but what I remember is that at that time all my interest was directed toward French ^-^however, at secondary school, and when I was 2nd year student my Moroccan English teacher ask me to take my chair and go to the board then to sit in the front of my classmates, he told me that he would be the journalist and I have to play the role of “Kondiliza Rais”, as far as I remember I waz shy and kinda stressed at that time but I took it as a big challenge and I pretend her character though I hate her guts My teacher told me that “ I have very good accent and that my English is very good” , he was always encourage me. Honestly, I liked his support but still haven’t much interest on it. At my third year, everything changed when I met my English teacher Miss. Oukassi, she was really the kindest teacher I’ve ever seen, she was very cool and has very cute smile which makes every student feel comfortable before the lesson starts. I get inspired by her personality and her English impressed me when I succeeded in the baccalaureate exam I decided to study English in future though my family and my French teachers were trying to convince me to study French but all their efforts was useless coz I took my decision and studied English. Now, I’m graduate and when I came back home I noticed that my family show a huge interest in English and wanna know much more about it so I think I set my community ^^
At last, this is my story, and really pleased to share with you guys^^
Blessed Djomo3a
