there is lots of room for language discussions in "off topic"

First lesson: if and when:
If it will happen you use when.
If it is a possibility you use if.
Examples:
When you're going to meet the enemy fleet you should be on-line. (it will happen)
If I don't meet my enemy, what should I do (it is not certain whether it will happen or not)
Wrong:
* Is I don't meet my enemy.

Second lesson
* You enemy fleet will attack you Home
Personal pronouns (subject/non subject)
singular
1st person: I/me
2nd person: you/you
3rd person: he/him, she/her, it/it
plural
1st person: we/us
2st person: you/you
3rd person: they/them
Possesive pronouns
singular
1st person: my
2nd person: your
3rd person: his, her, its
plural
1st person: our
2st person: your
3rd person: their
So it should be:
Your enemy fleet will attack your home

You aren't really paying attention to the lessons, are you?
See lesson 1
* And your enemy will destroy your shipyard, and you cry
And your enemy will destroy your shipyard, and you will cry (like a little baby)
* I'm agree with Jam
In English it is just a verb.
So it should be:
I agree
or
I disagree
I don't agree

the mistakes that are most common are these:
its or it`s?
1.
it`s = it has
its = something of it
lot of people use it`s all the time and this is quite confusing
2.
he, she, it -> the verb has to be with an "s" at the end
we, they, you, i.... -> no "s"
and the "s" has to be there only once,
so this is wrong:
"does he knows?"
it has to be:
"does he know?"
cause the "does" already has the "s" |

yup... that's 'cause the ' stands for missing letters ('ll = will, 'd = would, and, come to think of it, I used 'cause instead of because )

Well if you use bad english so often you will almost think you can speak it fluently. And I always experience a lot of trouble when I try to read ruben's post (no offense)
