Gatineau golf course is loosing some land

[mberube]

Have you guys heard that Gatineau GC is going to lose some land cause the city is building a swimming pool? It seems that they are losing the short par 4 and long par 3 beside the boulevard.

[Kilroy]

They are adding a few holes in the back. Not sure aboiut completion dates.

[mberube]

Will the course be open this spring with the old holes?

[upanddown]

'loosing' should be spelled 'losing', and 'loose should' be 'lose'.

----------------
lose:
To be unsuccessful in retaining possession of; mislay: He's always losing his car keys.

loose:
Not fastened, restrained, or contained: loose bricks.

Sorry that I offended you but English is my second language. I learned English on the fly and never learned it in school. Can you do better with a second language?

Looks like we got ourselves an ol' fashion rumble here

The new holes certainly won't be ready for a couple of years. I don't know when they lose (sic) the land.

Thanks for the information about Gatineau golf.

By the way, your english is fine, some people have nothing better to do than to (try and) correct other peoples mistakes.

I am learning French so I understand how difficult it is.

Cheers

'выпуск' должен быть записан, 'теряя', и 'свободный должен' быть, 'теряют'.

потеряйте:
Быть неудачным в сдерживающем владении; затеряйте: Он всегда теряет его автомобильные ключи.

свободный:
Не закрепленный, сдержанный, или содержавшийся: свободные кирпичи.

笑いをありがとう。 幸せ。

Berube, take heart. Your point here as elsewhere in your postings was clearly understood. Tu devrais écrire en francais pour Mr. UpandDown. Je ne pense pas qu'il pourrait te donner un cour de formation en englais. On the other hand, I suspect that he was just kidding.

I can actually speak that version as quickly as straight english (if you allow for the egextrega segylegabegles)

Love seeing Cyrillic alphabet used in the forum. Not Russian, but I have done some translation work in the past and love the look of the alphabet. I'm Czech, so we can form a seemingly endless pool of languages in this forum.

mberube, take comfort in the fact that quite often people have good intentions when they make corrections in language acquisition skills, they just can't phrase it well in writing. Text is very one-dimensional in the practical sense, language is almost infinite in it's scope of possible information conveyance. My friend Shawn just wrote a very interesting paper on the quantum aspects of information which explains it a lot better than I can....

I am compelled to say: ¿Quién sabía que el golf podría generar una discusión tan erudita? or Chi ha saputo che il golf potrebbe generare così discussione erudite?
No, I am neither Spanish nor Italien. But the Internet has a great translation engine that will do in a pinch: http://world.altavista.com/

Especially on an informal website about golf. While I'm sure everyone likes to improve their language skills, there are more polite and useful ways of assisting.
