#510 Upgrade means actualizacion and improve mejorar.
Not a big deal, improve means make something better (ie. you improve your english) whereas upgrade usually means replace for something better (ie. you upgrade your computer for one faster).
#513 Not really, upgrading a computer means making the same computer better. If you're changing the old one for a new one you would use "replace".
In the end you COULD use upgrade for it, but it's a better idea to use upgrade when you're making something better without completely replacing it.
But you make your computer better by replacing some of its components, you don't improve or update the components, you upgrade them :p
You upgrade the graphics card, yes, by replacing it for a better one.
See the difference? In the end it's all semantics, but I just think it sounds better and is slightly more "correct".
You could, for example, say: "I upgraded from a GeForce 5600 to a Geforce 8800" which implies you replaced one for the other but means you upgraded from a low-end card to a better one.

#525 It's absolutely normal for you to make these mistakes. Don't worry!
BTW I'm going to sleep, good night to everyone!
Now shush child you have no idea
That -into ES- "Ahora chitón chaval que no tienes ni idea" is the strangest literal translation I've seen in this decade. I have no doubt on your English skills and I believe you when you say English is your mother tongue, but it doesn't look like that after seeing the way you write and express yourself.
And please, be careful when typing and set the 'i' as subject in capitals ('I'), like it's got to be.
P.S. That 'bolox' thing is scarcely laughable
---no resentfulness nor hard feelings in my post, I swear. I'm just trying to help---
haha shush is a slang word , hahah and bolox is a slang word aswell, i expected you not to understand it ;D
no es chitón sino mas como shh o calla , algo parecido nose como explicartelo ;D
i write the same way i express myself, its the irish in me ;D
Unfortunatelly, as an audio-visual translator all of those slang words aren't unknown for me. I must admit I have only heard of 'bolox' (I know it's bollocks but I mean written like that) once before (one day playing Counter-Strike a few years ago), and I felt so curious about that term that I looked for its meaning and made a note of it. That's why I burst out laughing when you said so (despite I said it wasn't funny :$).
It's actually "bollocks" and depending on how it's used it means one thing or another.
It can mean "basura", "mierda" ("This thread is bollocks") or it can refer to the male testicles ("I'll punch you in the bollocks"). However the first use is the most common and it's mainly used in the UK.
exactly hhaah in ireland its used alot aswell , god if i start writing slang from my town we could be here all day.
well lads im of to bed now see you all tommoro you cunts! hahaha
Hey guys give me a hand with this small sentence:
I am a working, non-single, easy-going, north-american, 20 year dutch resident
Does it mean that he's only 20 years old (would be weird) or that he has been 20 years living in Holland? It's probably the second but I want to make sure
#537 I think the guy means that he is 20 years old , he 's initially from deutchland but now american resident....Or so I think :/
But anyway , whatever he meant , he wrote it wrong ..The last bit doesn't make any sense really..
At the moment i wont go to any place this summer, i only will drink a lot for me city and Marina : )
Probably the first week of september i will go to Olot Party! I have a friend that live there, and we have stay free on "Masia" (xDDDD).
Btw, </3 english >___<
#537 He's 20 years old. But he wrote it as adjetive adding dutch resident after, so the age is an adjetive there. The right way to write it is: I'm 21-year-old spanish guy.
