I always think it's amusing when a foreigner outperforms a native speaker
of a language - foreigners often have more incentive to learn the
subtleties of a language than native speakers who "know it all anyway".
On the other hand, one of my russian friends here in the US recently gave
me a lambasting over my accent (I'm Australian) and told me to "learn to
speak English". This from a guy who hasn't yet mastered the word 'the' :-)
Fortunately, he was joking :-)
