Questions to nonumerhikans of hump.

I am using both my smartphone and windows7 in english. Yesterday I've reinstalled win7 and decided to go with pro instead of ultimate because its lighter and saves few gb on my ssd.
Little did I knew that You cant change language in pro and I am stuck with polish. Ofc all apps are in english. It doesnt feel right.

English OS with English US keyboard layout as that helps in some games although since I need ÅÖÄ for a bunch of Swedish words I do have that as a alternate keyboard set.
(Not really sure why but sometimes after playing certain games it switches to the Swedish one on it's own without me pressing ALT+Spacebar, easy to fix though.)

I'm using everything in German or English. Nothing will ever support my native language.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Yup. English OS, English set on phone, English set on websites etc.

Play 99% of games in English as well, since the Polish translations of games are dreadful most of the time (GTA V )

English, always have. This is how you learn English. This was certainly my first "shock" when I started, where everything was in English. You learn like that the most. Books, sure, tv, yes, but I started with the computer. Smile

This!
I already knew more than got taught in schools because of this... If you want to learn English, this is the best way IMO. Just keep on repeating, learn from mistakes and make useful reminders about words you wrote/read wrong.

The shortcut for changing keyboard layouts in Windows is CTRL+SHIFT as far as I know.

I used to have Polish since Win 95, so I think I got used to it. Now I have Polish Win8.1 on my PC, English W7 on my work laptop, English Mint on my private laptop, English on my Android Devices. So, where do I fall? Very Happy
