Die Große Halle

Oh... I didn't read right....

The last site's in our english books are the grammar site's... And I read books often in English, perhaps harry potter

Never mind.
English books are great. I love to read them.
Of course the story has to be good, too..

My sister is 19. But she looks like 16 XD I think she hates that.
Wooah, I never read an english book. (The books which we read in school don't count. They're stupid, boring and written for pupils. But I really want... Maybe I take one of my sister XD)

i can understand you sister. With me it's the same thing...

I really like reading books and watchin movies in english. I think you learn more like this than in school. In books and movies you can see how they are really talking. And sometimes you learn senseless things at school.

I can understand, too. I mean I'm thirteen and often people ask who's older: Me or my sister. It would annoy me.
Oooh, Movies are great. I watched twilight and the Simpsons Movie on english. And HP 2. *proud*

People never ask... they always say: "she's the older one, isn't she?" and they are looking to my 3 and a half year younger sister.
äh... no... i'm a bit older than her...
"Yeah... but she... yeah... you are a bit..."
and some years ago they asked "are you twins?"

when do you say elder and when older??? i don't understand...

I think in your case it is older.

People used to confuse me and my 1 year older cousin and so we always pretended to be twins. That was fun!

Yeah, reading books or watching movies in English gives you a better feeling for the language. I love to watch stuff in English. Piretes of the Caribbean for example. I love to hear Jack Sparrow talk.

i think so, too but i don't know why...

Haha, good question. I have no idea.
I would say that usually you use older - but then I have no idea when you use elder...

My friend tried to explain, but i didn'd understand... i think something like when you are talkin about a person who is about 10/20 years elder...
But i think it doesn't make sense...
