Şcolile independente (private) din Marea Britanie sunt renumite în întreaga lume pentru condiţiile excelente pe care le oferă. Există o mare varietate de şcoli în Anglia, Ţara Galilor, Scoţia şi Irlanda de Nord, care acceptă elevi începând cu prima varstă şcolară (5 ani) şi până la 18 ani. După ce a trecut prin sistemul şcolar privat din Marea Britanie, un copil nu numai că va fi beneficiat de una dintre cele mai bune experienţe educaţionale din lume, dar va fi şi un bun vorbitor de limbă engleză.

The independent (Public) schools in the United Kingdom are world famous for the excellent conditions they offer. There is a great variety of schools in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland that accept students between the age of entry into the school system (5 years) and 18 years. After having graduated from the private school system in the UK, a child will not only have taken advantage of one of the best educational experiences in the world, but will have also become a proficient English speaker.

Hi andreitroie

In England, independant, private schools are, paradoxically called public schools!!

So maybe you could you change the word in brackets to "Public".

Your own English is excellent!! did you go to Eton?

Could you also leave a message (in Romanian) explaining to liliacul_meu that next time she should use the correct diacritics (accents) when she submits a text?

Thanks a lot

Thanks for the valuable input on UK's schools, Tantine. I have made the necessary modification. As a matter of fact, I should have figured that out myself, since this isn't the first time I hear about the UK's school system.

Thank you for your compliments on my English. I didn't go to Eton, however. As a matter of fact, I've never studied anywhere outside my country, which is Romania, as I think you've realized. It's just that I've been studying English since I was 4 years old. Now I'm 17, so that makes 13 years of study.

Speaking of which, I'm afraid I don't understand what you meant when you referred to using the correct accents in Romanian. Romanian is, after all, my mother tongue and I assure you there are no accents in Romanian. Perhaps you meant the diacritics such as "ă", "ţ", "ş" and so on, however, not all Romanian users can configure their computers to see these characters.

Thank you,
Andrei Troie

Yes, very true, but the texts can very well be edited in Word, where the Romanian diacritics exists or you can use this link: http://romanian.typeit.org/

I have actually written about this link sooooo many times I've got blisters on my fingers.

Liliacul_meu got the warning, Tantine, so ... no problem. And I have corrected the text.

Is "world known" written with a hyphen in Britain? It is not in North America. We also would be more likely to say "world renowned" or "world famous".
"
Also, "5 (first school age) and 18" --> "the age of entry into the school system (5 years) and 18 years".

I know I'm being picky, but I think that's closer to the original.

Firstly, I thought it sounded more natural my way, Kafetzou, with the assumed risk that I might have strayed from the original meaning (even though I don't really think it's the case) You can change it if you really don't like it. And, in what "world-known" is concerned, I figured it sounded better with a hyphen. And speaking of "world famous", for instance, my Longman dictionary says it's spelled with a hyphen, at least in British English.

Secondly, thanks for your compliments, Tantine, again, you are too kind.

Hi Kafetzou & Andre

Maybe if we put "are known world-wide"?

I'm sorry, andretroi - I did not mean to imply that your translation was not good - I was just making a couple of suggestions for improvement, but it's up to Tantine to decide on this one, as she has taken it on.

I like your suggestion, Tantine, but I believe "world wide", "well known", and "world famous", etc. are only written with a hyphen when they are used attributively (before a noun). When they are used in the predicate, they are written without a hyphen.

Andreitroie, I don't think "world known" is used in English, with or without a hyphen, although it certainly would be understood by any English speaker. I don't know why we don't use it, in fact!

Hi all,

Lets go for "world famous" without a hyphen?

If everyone is ok with this I'll edit and validate.
