我 is really old Japanese for 私. Much like the negative ending "zu" (in place of "nai") is carries a much stiffer sense of formality. For example, 我は「外人伝説」と謳っておる!(ware wa "gaijin densetsu" to utatte oru) is one of my favorites. My sensei got a laugh out of that one (lit. I am proclaimed as the Legendary Gaijin!) xp

this is more modern trend, you may have taken my english wrong too, i do not prohibit, i said that was more written that way in these age

am i really that bad with english? gonk

It's not that bad. I admit I do sometimes get a little confused, but reading it through once more I get what you mean. And like I said before, if you do need some help with English, I can probably help you.


Indeed. This guld is not just for those learning Japanese. It's also for those trying to make their English more natural, while they teach people Japanese.
