    It'll stop all the people who come here and don't speak a word!

    Thanks for the post 5olidsnake
    Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
    Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.

    17 August 2010: List of approved providers published for English language testing for partners. The UK government announced plans In June 2010 to introduce compulsory English language tests for all non-European migrants applying to come to the UK to join or marry their settled partner. Today the UK Border Agency has published a list of approved test providers. For further information on these changes and to view the list of approved providers please see the question and answers document on the UK Border Agency website.

    in the city, yes. we speak tag-lish here. english is our second language. we cant even speak pure tagalog

    but majority of the country, we got plenty of dialects.
    Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.

    Whatever is meant to be will always find its way.
