Team Fortress 2 “Meet the Engineer”

игры английский язык
Не думаю, что компьютерные игры подходят для изучения английского, но если уж у Вас есть игровая зависимоть и мотивация к изучению языка, то это надо совместить.
Для изучения лучше всего подходят quests, главное не лениться переводить незнакомые слова.

Hey, look buddy. I’m an engineer. That means I solve problems.
Not problems like, “What is beauty?,” because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of ‘philosophy’.
I solve practical problems.
For instance,
how am I gonna stop some big, mean mother hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new behind?
The answer: Use a gun. And if that don’t work? Use more gun.
My arm!
Like this heavy caliber tripod-mounted little old number designed by me, built by me,
and you best hope… not pointed at you.
