[QUOTE="-Twilight-"][QUOTE="Tykain"]There are just as many homonyms and homophones in French(My native language), same goes for many languages.Tykain

Is there anyway you can find these? I'd seriously be interested in having a look (I'm "google-ing" now), because I spent 3 years learning French and never would have thought that.

There is a list here for the most common homophones.

Thanks, that felt like a bit of a refresher course, as I recognized some of them from my first year.

Yes, i know there are many homophones in English. But there is a huge list in French as well. Maybe English has more, i don't know nor do i care, i'm not gonna try to count them all for both languages. All i know is homophones are very common in both languages and while being fluent in both languages myself, i don't feel any of these languages being more difficult than the other on that point.

Your English is fine. Any English speaker would be able to understand you quite well. Hell, your English is better than most native speakers in the US.
