Welcome to my User Page !
Languages:
My mother toung is German and I was also born in Germany, in Bavaria, to be more exact. My second language was English and thereafter Afrikaans (as third language). I also understand Dutch, Flemish, Frisian, Alemannic (Alemannisch), Luxembourgish, Romansh and the 'new' language Pennsylvania German (Pennsilfaanisch Deitsch) - which I only found out about in Wikipedia (and various other dialects), just the grammar - speech and writing, would still be giving me some problems. I also understand some Swedish, Finnish and Danish. Further more I am also interested in Italian - and maybe also in Latin and French. I live in Pretoria/South Africa since 1973.
Wikipedia:
I am still a Greenhorn - regarding Wikipedia, and still miss a proper WYSIWYG-Editor (expecially for Tables)! Is there no way to convert tables from a Spreadsheet (MS Excel or OpenOffice.org Calc) or transfer/import them? (Or is the motto: "Why do it simple when it is possible to do it complicated!" ?)
