Well, actually Chinese is the most spoken language in the world, not English, I repeat - Chinese.

And that tells us something!!! That means GOD wants us all to speak Chinese.

You cannot ignore these facts! You just can't!

It's Mandarin to be precise. And the absolute number of Mandarin speakers doesn't mean much the speakers of the language live in China mostly or by Chinese diaspora in foreign countries.  On the other hand, English is a truly international language spoken in most countries of the world. You will find yourself speaking English rather Mandarin, while visiting foreign countries.

Ellidi, are you kidding us?? Why on earth are you using words like that? Most of them are either completely obsolete or just very bookish. Do you post for yourself or for others? Please use a more neutral language.
For two (or three, depending on whether I understood you aright) reasons: firstly, initially I recollected these words, this particular vocabulary, so I moulded my considerations with them. Secondly, remoulding them using more common-or-garden vocabulary would require from me considerable effort, inasmuch as it is unwonted for me. Thirdly, erstwhile you admitted that the vocabulary in my messages is interspersed with words unfamiliar to you and you were receptive to the occasion of familiarising yourself with them. If the third reason I surmised seems to you the product of my misinterpretation and/or miscomprehension, I apologise.
Suum quoque castitas mentis dispendium patitur, quia nonnunquam mens concupiscentiae telo configitur per carnis speciem, quam exterius contemplatur. («A. de C. S.», c. XI)

Ah! I cannot correct the errors I made, so I will repost the message.

Well, maybe you're right. I could memorize new words reading your posts. :) That's a real benefit, because I'm always eager to enlarge my vocabulary. I was just a little worried about others who might have some troubles in understanding your writing.
By the way, do you always talk like that? If a foreigner in Bulgaria adresses you in English, will you answer him in a similar way? That would sound quite strange, I guess.

Meseems that the befitting (or at least adjuvant to the collocutor's study) reaction to errors is rectification rather than reprehension or condemnation.
Personne parle ce langage comme le vôtre. C'est un langage bizarre et macaronique. Par exemple, adjuvant est plutôt un terme de médecin. C'est comme de parler en russe мне экзотермично à la place de мне жарко.

Who knows how humanity will be doing in twenty years...
All these weapons of mass destruction having been manufactured, wouldn't it be naive to suppose nobody's gonna use them?

Quel dialecte étrange! Etes-vous sûr de ce que vous dites en anglais?

Today I received an sms from my friend saying that he feels like he poisoned himself. I sms'd back asking what does he sin on. He replied that on vodka. Laughed like an elephant above this.

And what did you use as a cast formwork for the molding?

I tried to correct this as best as I could.

Today I received a text from a friend, saying that he has got a food poisoning. I texted back asking, what he thought could have caused that. He said vodka. I laughed my ass off / That made me crack up.

To hell with them, they are no friends to us, they never were:)
Is there any friend to us among English-speaking countries?  Is there any real friend among all of the countries in the world?

You may talk politics here. Nobody gives a sh*t, 'cause moderators don't seem to check this thread. :) I won't report you, I promise. :tss:
