OK I'm gonna ask now. I installed an old MS Speech SDK in hopes that it would fix faceposer. It did not, but then someone released some faceposer update that works with the new Speech SDK, which I no longer have. Does anyone have the new Speech SDK dll for me?
Windows 8 Dev preview coming later tonight: [url]http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2011/09/13/welcome-to-windows-8-the-developer-preview.aspx[/url] [editline]13th September 2011[/editline] Halp, my windows xp pc says conflicting ip adress, i reboot it, still exists. ipconfig/flushdns works fine, but ipconfig/release and renew give a failed because no adapter is in a state to complete this action?

[QUOTE=kaine123;32271890]Is English really a hard language to learn?[/QUOTE] Not really, it's the easiest language I know.
English is easy to speak, but hard to write.

I was in my Chinese class today and the teacher wanted to show us some video in Chinese (shocker), so she went into Bing and searched Google, and then google'd youtube, which is blocked

Most people around here only speak French/Spanish, and English.

I occasionally will say it in joking or in text to a friend, but not since probably 1st-2nd grade have I actually thought that was proper English...

They see languages other than English "Un-American."

My school offers Japanese, I would of taken it if it wasn't that it would have collided with physics. Else during my school years I could have learn Spanish, German, French and I believe Italian. I've got 4 years of Spanish, and can't remember half of it since the last time I had a lesson with it was 3 years ago. And then my teacher during 2 of those years wasn't all that good at it. Else I've had a teacher that have atleast lived there and knew the language well. Also the Japanese teachers at my school is either my sister's friend's grandfather that is a native Japanese, or said friend's mother's friend. Also I'm glad that you're required to learn English in Swedish schools. Not that it'd help me much, except with a bit of grammar.
