> As far as I understand, the word 'ever' requires a perfect tense, right? So, "I've ever seen" would be the only one form allowed.
Ya got me there. I gots no ideas. :)
> Russian.
I've never tried to learn that. I have enough trouble learning languages that have the same alphabet.
> Right. Actually, as I can see, American language is quite different, than English. There is a noticable difference, when I hear American people vs British people. And I know, that lots of words are spelled differently in English vs American. For instance, center and centre, theater and ?, etc.
Theatre is the English version.
> In our schools we learned, what a future tense requires "I shall", not "I will", as all Americans say. What is the correct form of Future tense in England?
I don't know. It's been a long time since I've had an English class in school, so I don't know all the terms.
> I'd like to discuss this topic (though my knowledge of English isn't enough), but it may lead us to an infinite discussion. Therefore, if you're interested in this theme, let's discuss in Chatter section on in Private. What do you think?
I wouldn't mind, but I'm not an expert on English (American or otherwise) so I don't know how helpful I would be. If you make a new post about it, though, you're bound to get a lively discussion. Look at the "Syntax Error" thread there was recently for an example.
