Being Stinged Stung by A Hornet Hurts a Lot!

I had a very serious discussion with my English teacher (here is another placement) about wasps, hornets, bees and ants in my country with my English teacher. I was surprised that he’s never seen a hornet, and has never been stung by any bee, wasp or hornet. It surprised me, because I get stinged stung at least 2 - 4 times every year. every year 2-4 times at least. I live in the Czech Rrepublic and spend a huge amount of time outside at our garden. (if your garden is at your home then use "in our garden") I think I have never been stung in a city. I don't think I have ever been stung while in a city.

The Czech Hornet, alias Vespa, which is a common kind of hornet living here, with us and eatsing our pears every year. It’s biting (makes means eats) a huge holes inside it them (not just one pear, but many of them) and eatsing almost all of it the whole thing. I don’t know if it’s digesting very fast it digests much of it or if of it’s it just drinkings the fructose which is in pears, but it’s they working in teams and havinge no remorse! (and don't care) We have just two pear trees at in our garden, (use a comman when using and to connect two sentences) and I don’t remember me (not a reflexive verb) eating any pears.

Another thing which is our our hornets are doing, is stinging us when we are chasing them away from our pears. (Don't often start a sentence with the word and). AndTtrust me, it really hurts! It itches a lot, it becomes reddish fast (it quickly becomes red) (it quickly turns red) and we’re cooling and calming slow the reaction with a the (don't use a and the next to each other) Fenistil gel, or onion. The stinged place site stays reddish for a few days sometimes.

It isn’t aggressive when you aren’t chasing it away or don’t bump into them. I mean literally bump into them. So be careful when you’re being outside in Europe, especially in the fall. They are there. :)

Thanks for the heads up about the Czech Hornet. I did not know about them.  I like your topics.

Hello Pavel,

I have been stung by a few bees and wasps but not a hornet. (Yet!) Your text is good and generally understandable. I have just changed the tense in the 2nd paragraph because you are talking about habits (The hornet's and yours) so they should be in the simple tense. Feniston Gel doesn't need an article (A/the) because it is a proper name (Like Pavel.)

Hope this helps.
