I've read somewhere that only 20 (or 10 ?) were stored, but it's not true, I've more than this in my workbook. I am wonderning if it's usefull to keep the e mail I receive, lessons and corrections, so I can review the past ones (I'm very serious as a learner ) But I just realized my questioning was stupid, because if the lessons are not stored anymore, I won'nt be able to acces to them even if I kept the e mail. So let's say that was just for talking http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99452012/05/25 16:02:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=8431Do you, the authors of our daily lessons, really need to transform the corporation into a doown-and-out firm or do you sacrifice the good reputation of D.C. because "the end justifies the means"? But do we rally need such vocabulary? Wads of chewing gum wedged under the tray, footprints on the photocopier which were installed near the broom closet? Grandpa Delavigne would turn in his grave if he knew.http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=84312012/05/25 11:41:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9420This is an excerpt from "On The Road" by Jack Kerouac, just like Bruno, he travels to San Francisco : "If you want to go to Chicago you’d be better going across the Holland Tunnel in New York and head for Pittsburth,” and I knew he was right. It was my dream that screwed up, the stupid hearthside idea that it would be wonderful to follow one great red line (road 6) across America instead of trying various roads and routes. In Newburgh it had stopped raining. I walked down to the river and I had to ride back to New York in a bus with a delegation of schoolteachers coming back from a weekend in the mountains — chatter chatter blah-blah, and me swearing for all the time and money I’d wasted, and telling myself, I wanted to go west and here I’d been all day and into the night going up and down, north and south, like something that can’t get started." Who knows this book and writer ? http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=94202012/05/25 10:31:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9477Hi everyone, In my lesson today (The Corporate Retreat, scene 6 of 10, #5 ) you said that sleepy is another word for « tired ». In my opinion, sleepy isn't a synonymous for tired.....When you are sleepy, you aren't necessarily tired. It's different. I look up in my dictionary and it's not mentioned that both terms are synomymous. So....controversial subject???? What do you think about? Carmellehttp://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=94772012/05/24 12:06:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9973Please, someone knows what can I do to cancel definitively my signature for this course, and top cancel debit in my credit card. On the site doesnt have a way to contact someone by phone or email, and to cancel this signature Tks http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99732012/05/24 11:54:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=10007I've just finished reading this book and a nice description of Paris by an anglo-american author. A good one, to my opinion for the 3/4 and then a pirouette, just perhaps because he didn't know how to go on. The book can be read without a dictionary (my GG level is definitely under 5 ) Wiki :"The Woman in the Fifth, the story of a beleaguered professor who falls in love with a strange woman who isn’t the person she seems, was also adapted into film, and was released in France in November 2011, starring Ethan Hawke and Kristin Scott Thomas". What do you think of it ?http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=100072012/05/24 11:53:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9958Hi all, in my opinion, the german translation of the requested vocabulary "overlord" is wrong. gymlish result: an overlord = eine Überbelastung. Excerpt: Grand Overlord of Delavigne. I wasn't able to find a link etc., how to handle this. Is there anybody, who can help. Thanks and bye.http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99582012/05/23 10:04:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=10015Hello everybody, Could you help me? I search for an english training course in France or abroad but combined with the possibility of coaching for a marathon. If possible in a sunny area. Thanks for your answers Have a nice dayhttp://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=100152012/05/23 07:33:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9937Dear users, We would like to apologize for the service downtime that started on April 30th 2012 around 5:30pm and ended on May 1st around 4:30am. We accidently deleted (human error!) the user table from our database, and the 'quick fix' that we tried actually left the database in an even worse state. By 10pm, we had to restore the database from a backup of the previous day and replay all the transactions of the day, which was a relatively slow process that was finished by 4:30am on May 1st. We would like to apologize again for any inconvenience. On behalf of the GymGlish team, Antoine Brenner PS: A new improved forum (faster and with more features) will soon (before July 2012) replace the current forum - stay tuned.

I try for 7 seven days for free. I don't know if I'm going to take the course and pay. I would if I KNEW that I was learning English. What do you say? Do you learn a lot of English?http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=97942012/05/22 12:40:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9965What do you think of the film "Schwarzfahrer" (Youtube), is it funny? http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99652012/05/22 10:36:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9998In a lesson, I read about "argumentative" : An 'argumentative' person is someone who looks for an argument or a dispute, or has a tendency to argue.... Note that this adjective is totally unrelated to the idea of debate or 'argument' in the sense of stating an opinion for or against a given topic. and few lines below : (an) argumentative (person): (une personne) qui aime les débats I find this contradictory, don't you ?http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99982012/05/22 09:56:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5345Read about the latest adventures of Delavigne employees at their blog: http://blog.delavignecorp.com A great way to see English grammar in action!http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=53452012/05/21 19:03:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=4215Hello everyone, This is the thread where I'd like you to introduce yourselves please!

Is my name lost in your labyrinthic memory? With love supernul http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=91262012/05/15 00:09:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9931So, did some of you go to this Gymglish party we were invited to, this week ? I found it a great idea, and I would have gone if I weren't living in a such out-of-the-way (just learnt that ) place than I do. Was it english spoken or ? And did you get all drunk, as it was said to be part of the fun ?http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99312012/05/14 17:12:00 GMT+2http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=9932I was surprised with the correction :for several years now Bruno Delavigne has been wanting...I learnt many years ago that certains verbs like believe,dislike,wish,want etc have not any progressive tense;http://www.gymglish.com/www/forum/view_topic?topic_id=99322012/05/14 17:02:00 GMT+2
