My english sucked as well some years ago (about 12-13 years ago to be more precise). I solved tha problem with the help of a dictionary & later with the help of online translation programs, like the one SimplexDesign posted.
My English still sucks, but at least people now understand what I'm trying to say.
Besides, compared to German, English is easy... (I never understood when to use der, des, dem or den or the equivalents for die and das.... In English it's always the. )
