Ah right. I meant brilliant in the sense of it's a good idea & respectful of anyone to make a speech in the native tongue of the host country.
I think that's the trouble with words being written down on forums, any social media or texts, you don't see the person's face, tone of voice, behaviour or personality.
So we all read things in different ways.
As I'm a very optimistic & enthusiastic person I tend to use the word brilliant for many things that I think are good or a good idea or solution.
So obviously in real life if you knew me you would get the correct inference from what I wrote.
I think that's why Bertrand sometimes the odd poster here doesn't get your posts & thinks you are being argumentative.
I know you aren't as you come across as a person who thinks about things & sees all angles & likes to ask the questions that no one else does.
Like the child in The Emperors New Clothes who asked why the Emperor was naked.
(Mind you I would be that child too
)
I enjoy reading your posts.
I enjoy reading most of the different posts & posting styles on here.
