- My English is well enough, but I'd like to help you out nonetheless :) Any questions, any test phrases, go ahead and post or PM me :)

- Your English is 'good' enough, not 'well'... I'd take the offer if I were you...

- [b][url=http://www.google.nl/search?q=%22well+enough%22&hl=af&lr=&start=0&sa=N]hehe :D[/url][/b] You had me going there though :p

- An odd reply, I'm not sure it means anything, but I mean no harm. Zand erover!

- Check the link; Google gives me over 10 pages I consider it correct :p. Reminds me, I remember some paper I had to read that was some sort of weird, long philosophical discussion about the sentence "I don't know the play well enough, sir" and what could've been going on in the speaker's head when uttering that exact sentence and not something slightly different - that sure made the sentence stick in my mind, I guess it must've influenced my choice of words here as well :D

- Perhaps. Well is usually used with 'knowing', being familiar with something. 'I know it well...' But knowledge can't be 'well enough'...it's always 'good enough' or sufficient. Enough though, this is a Dutch forum and you're the boss of that!
