If you were unfortunate enough to pair up with someone from Liverpool, you would be in big trouble!
I've lived in Liverpool for 25 years and still don't understand them.
Good Luck!

LMAO, had a good laugh at some of the responses. Sadly, its true......And as per usual its all Americas fault (lol....Jk

If you think he'd have trouble with a Scouser, imagine if he befriended a Geordie or Glaswegian, lol.
I have to say though, bizarrely when I have spoken broad Geordie dialect to Scandinavians (particularly Norwegians) for a laugh, they have understood me perfectly well. Its a bizarre smorgasbord of Old English, Norse, Anglo-Saxon and some Frisian! And its

British comedy satire show "The Day Today" skit on Gangsta Rap...."Uzi Lover"
Seriously though Hecke laddie, its likely if a British kid is into IL-2 he will probably have half a brain and be at least semi literate. Hopefully. They are just pulling your leg (kidding) really, not all British kids are like this. Good luck with getting yourself a British pal (had a German penpal when I was at School funnily enough!) Your written English is very good Hecke, don't worry about it. British people are relatively ignorant compared to continentals when it comes to foreign languages (though I know a little French and German, enough to get to the pub anyway....which is all you need really lol.)
