That's my first one, I know I am here to learn, but I also want to apologize for my terrible English, I promessed to myself writing here, "I won't use any kind of source wich would help me to translate any word". I need to confess it is dirficult for me... But I am really writing with my own knoledge of English. If you want, feel free to give me any kind of tip or a bit of advice, I'd like much more if you use some "prasal verbs" in your correction, becouse I don't know how to use "phrasal verbs" and I feel frustated with it...

Help me if you can I am feeling down...

Hi everyone!

First, I'd like to thank you for taking the time to read my entry. This is my first one. I know I am here to learn, but I still want to apologize for my terrible English. I promised to myself when I wrote this, "I won't use any kind of source which would help me to translate any words". I must confess it is difficult for me...But I am really writing with my own pre-existing knowledge of English. If you want, feel free to give me tips or a bit of advice, I'd like much more if you use some "phrasal verbs" in your correction, because I don't know how to use "phrasal verbs" and I feel frustrated with it... I wish I could...Sounds more natural speaking English.
I want to improve my English and I really need to learn Mandarin Chinese, I work with chinese people and my lack of knowledge in this language is holding me back in my career, I can move up or climb up this ladder if I become proficient in these two languages or at least in one of them.

Thanks a lot! I hope to hear something from you!

A big hug!

no...you've got it all wrong. You SHOULD use a dictionary when writing, this is what allows you to learn new words. I have learned that you have to be careful though. Your dictionary should be reliable so that the new words you learn mean the same things as the words in your native language that you already know. (I hope that sentence isn't too confusing.) I was talking to a Moroccan in french using an online dictionary and she said to me, 'to be honest, it isn't really that good'.

Hi everyone!

First, I'd like to thank you for your taking the time to reading my note.  This is That's my first one.  I know I am here to learn, but I also want to apologize for my terrible English. (Your English is so good.  I don't know what you are talking about!) I promised promessed to myself writing here, "I won't use any kind of source which will would help me to translate any words. (or you could take out "any words" altogether)" I need to confess that it is difficult for me... But I am truly really writing with my own knowledge of English.

 

If you want, feel free to give me any kind of tip or a bit of advice.  I'd really appreciate it like much more if you would use some "phrasal verbs" in your correction becouse I don't know how to use "phrasal verbs," and I feel frustated with it... I wish I could... Phrasal verbs sounds more natural speaking English.


I want to improve my English, and I really need to learn Chinese Mandarin. I work with Chinese people, and my lack of knowledge in this language is holding me back in my career. I can move up or climb claim up the this ladder if I become proficient in these this two languages, or in at least in one of them.

Thank you for while! I hope to hear something back from you guys!

Here's a big hug!

(I broke up your paragraph into smaller ones.  Try to start a new paragraph every time you change topics.  


Also, try to avoid using commas where a period should be used to separate sentences.  A comma is typically only used when you are connecting two parts of a sentence with a conjunction (like and, but, or, etc), or when you are listing things (I like cheese, milk, ice-cream and cake).  There are a lot of resources online for proper comma usage and punctuation like http://www.informatics.sussex.ac.uk/department/docs/punctuation/node00.html) 


Just keep asking questions, searching for guides on grammar, and practicing.  You did an excellent job just using your own knowledge though!  Good luck!)
