Sorry, it was me misunderstanding you. 

I'm not a native speaker either if it means anything ;)

Oh, well. I guess blenders interface is good when you have learned it, but for 
a beginner (like myself) it's almost impossibly complex.

But then again, pretty much all interfaces of 3d tools I've seen are like 
that. Quite a lot of people here at work use Maya, it's just mind boggling 
how you can do anything with it!

That is quite amazing! :) 
I've been taught and used english as a second language pretty much all my 
life, I don't think the difference is all that big :-)...
