New Experience
Hello all. Let me tell you about a few things that I did today. First off, (or: First of all) I installed google drive on my computer. Though I'd been using it via a browser before that moment. Howerver, now I got have it directly on my PC and it is synchronized with the cloud. I bet it's awesome. (More natural is "I bet it's gonna be awesome." The reason is that you haven't used it yet. Even if it's awesome right now, the implication is that it will be awesome for you in the future. If you haven't yet downloaded it and you're considering getting it, then you'd say "I bet it's awesome.") Can't wait to see how it's gonna ease my daily routine work. (These last two sentences are very casual! They work because you're writing in a really informal style. However, the second is missing a subject "I", and it probably better to just keep the "I". The alternative is to join the two together with "and".) Anyways, another thing I wanna bring up is: - (The hyphen doesn't look right here. If you want to use unusual punctuation, use a colon. Again, this is very informal. The alternative is to insert "that" between "is" and "I".) I eventually read a good article about English articles... I really hope it will help me to stop doing making awkward mistakes and make my speaking and writing english English writing more natural. Please share your experience with the google disk and don't forget to correct my stuff.
Nice, you balanced a fine line between informal and too informal. And I didn't see any errors with articles except the very first one. =)
My experience with Google Drive? Never! I work for Microsoft.
American English Corrections
A New Experience You need the indefinite article when you're talking about a new experience that you just had today, yesterday, etc. Titles also need to be capitalized in American English.
Hello, all or "everyone" to sound less informal.. Let me tell you a few things that I did today. First of all, I installed Google Drive on my computer. Though Until then, I'd been using it via a browser before that moment. However now I got "Have" is the correct / formal word to use here from the perspective of grammar but in causual speech you can use "got" instead. This notebook entry sounds pretty causual so I am not going to mark it as an error. :) it directly on my PC and it is synchronized with the cloud. I bet it's gonna be awesome. You can also say "going to be awesome" which is more formal and is not slang. Never use "gonna" at interviews, etc. Hehehe. I can't wait to see how it's gonna ease my daily work routine work or "my daily routine at work.". Anyways, another thing I wanna bring up is that I eventually ended up reading Or "I finally read". "Eventually" shouldn't be used here. How you would use it is like this: "I don't know much about English article but eventually, I will find a good article about them." Typically it is used with the future. :) a good article about English articles recently... I really hope it will help me to stop doing making awkward bad I changed the word to "bad" instead of "awkward" because people tend to say "bad mistakes". It sounds more natural. :) mistakes and will I placed another "will" here to balance the sentence. make my speaking and writing in English sound more natural. Please share your experiences You need the plural here since you are speaking to more than one person. You started off the article with "Hello, all." :) with the Google Drive and don't forget to correct my stuff. entry. Entry sounds better than stuff here. Stuff actually sounds a little odd in the context of a single entry which everyone is well aware of. :) Another way of saying this is "Please share any experiences (that) you've had with Google Drive and don't forget to correct my entry."
You did a pretty good job with this. I'm impressed. :)
