Erminia,

That was a wonderful post. I wholeheartedly agree with its
sentiments and with the beautiful force of its swollen language.
Here is a similar frustration, expressed by an architect from
Russia, who wrote me some months ago. I have tried to preserve
its strange and ravaged formatting. I thnk I might have posted it
here before, but now I can't remember. Anyway, here it is again, if I
did. I can't think of anything to say myself, these past few days,
being on antibiotics after slipping while fishing and jamming a stick
halfway through my palm, so I must resort to the inspired words of
others. thank goodness for the Copy command!:

[First interregnum: E-mail from an Architect in Russia.Original

                     My greetings from Gymnasium of Architecture to all

Prussia) because of

                     Russian people's Love to their >country,their families
and their Lenin. Also

                     Trotsky, destroyed fortunatelyby David ((muralist and
Architect))

They say: when you move to a foreign country, you never know to
what kind
 of language you are exposing yourself. You come from a family of
 professional people, from a literary intellectual background
especially?
 Forget part of that: you move to another nation and you lay
yourself bare
 on the ground as a newly born child. You are there, anew, ready to
absorb
 the new language: all depends from what people you are going to
be
 transmitted that new mother tongue from and in what new
environment.
 - Yes, fucking right, the same happened to me, lads. I moved to
this
 country, England, between seven to nine years ago. It better be
the latter
 end. I have no idea as to what kind of English I was exposed to,
what
 mother-tongue? If you're expecting me to actually open my lips and
 physically utter the English idiom in the received pronunciation,
you are
 fucking mistaken. Do I really give a shit? I'm telling you...I've got
 whole shitload of other questions in my mind. My only
preoccupation is to
 grab my dinner... I fucking hate this I want to suffer bit of what other
 people here are going through bullshit...They tell me: you have a
dead ear
 for English...
 I better still fucking be in lala-dream land...my lips are so heavy,
 bitch, you boca took up six hours of prime time; have some
decency....It's
 bad enough the god damn sun is streaming directly into my eyes
as if I
 were an homosexual....

 Utter the English idiom properly? Load of feces. It's fucking
 impossible....
