Hi all,
I'm Ed. founder of this group a long time ago, this group really need fresh blood, new people with energy to start threads,  schedule English conferences and events to help people to learn and improve English. This place can become a funny and useful place where people can improve your English for free as it was in the past.

If someone fell comfortable to be this person send me a private email, you can become admin of this and had the opportunity of revive it!

Best wishes

Ed.

Dear Ed, Claire, Hani, Daniel, Umberto and all familiar faces here,

It's been so long ago that we had had such a great time engaging in heated discussions on diverse topics in this friendly place.

I've been busy living and facebooking since my silence here.
I do have lots of topics to initiate as I've been teaching in the largest lnaguage centre which is a daughter company of the largest oil refinery in central Europe.
If you all are still interested in interacting with me, I will post my very first topic by this weekend. ;-)

So great to be back to the very first online forum I was involved in !!!
Nice day to you all around the globe,

Best,
Pauline

Wow, Umberto, Hani, Ed, Pauline, Daniel and all,

 That was a very good question, Umberto ! Very quick-witted of you. ;-)

I think it's because I have been disappointed with groups on Facebook full of fake people, people who pretend to be expert in the language and people who pretend to be helpful and actually are nice to you because they want something from you.

With all those feelings being exploited, lied to and used, it has led me home to this old comfortable place where everyone was friendly, helpful, modest or eager to learn. What I missed most is the sincerity I haven't found on Facebook groups., admins, creators and members alike. 

So is my reply to you satisfactory ?

Nice weekend to you and all !

Regards,
Claire

Nope, 'jejeje' means a kind of small laugh. just like 'hehehe' in portugues or maybe in english.

Imagine talking 'jejeje' in spanish, the sound of 'J' is like a 'H' in the word 'Heaven'.

Got it?

see ya

Oh, dear ! It is getting more and more interesting and at the same time confusing to me ! :D

What if we from all around the world speaking  Portuguese from Portugal and Brazil, French from France, Quebec, Belgium, Switzerland and African French ex-colonies, USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, India, Malaysia, Hong Kong where they speak different English, Italians, Russians, Chinese from China and Taiwanese from Taiwan all gather at the same chat room or at the conference face-to-face, how funny and confusing it will be ?   

Oh, I am not keen on any mobile apps for chats, Marcelo. It's not my style of interacting.
I prefer meaningful discussions to shallow and trivious talks of nothing.
Sorry for my being direct.

Dear all,

I have been thinking about the question that's been lingering in my mind lately. I will post the question and await your responses. ;-)
I will initiate a new thread for us to begin.
