My Buddy - The Dictionary
Dictionary is one of my best friends. First, dictionary is a useful tool for he is a great buddy 1 when I to help me in my study of foreign languages. I always carry around have him around in an electronic dictionary form so that I can he can 2translate those unknown new words form me when while I read reading the news, watching movies and communicating with foreigners with other native speakers3. Second 4, a dictionary can work not only as a tool of translation5, but also an instructive It can also serve as an encyclopedia. As no one can realize everything in the world, we can learn what the terms mean from a dictionary. No one knows everything. For example, many Americans has never heard of the game named as called “snooker”, and then you can find it out from your dictionary that snooker From the dictionary, one may learn that it is a traditional British kind of a billard game that pool which is popular in Europe and Asia but is known in America as a form of "pool". In short, the dictionary is a trustable my buddy is a trusted friend and it who never lets me down ever since I meet it we met for the first time.
Good ideas.
1. Your opening statement personifies the book as a person and so you need to continue with that theme. This makes better writing.
2. The dictionary is doing the translation, not you. :)
3. Since you are in the US already, you are the foreigner. Not them anymore!
4. You are not writing a "how to" manual. So you don't need to use words such as, "firstly", "secondly", etc. Makes you sound like you are lecturing your readers. Your writing always should sound warm, friendly and sincere.
5. This is redundant. You have already stated this before. No need to be long winded. There is a fine line between emphasis and being pedantic.
