  • Corrected

    Since others have already corrected everything. I'll just explain why the first line, "August almost came to an end but it's still so hot everyday.", is incorrect.

     

    When you say something or someone "almost came", you imply that the event did not happen and the time the event should have happenned has passed. Thus, it sounds like you are saying, August nearly ended, but did not, for some reason.

     

    When you change "almost came" (past tense) to "has almost come" (future tense), than it is clear that the event will take place in the future, and we don't have to worry about time stopping or going backwards. :)

    Lowering Formality If a friend is speaking to me with long form conjugations (ie. desu/masu), how would I suggest less formal speech. I'm guessing I would just speak the way I want them to and hope they follow suit. Also, if anyone has stories of situations like this, I would like to hear them.

    I think this is what you mean: Styles are not just clothes and beauty, they also represent the minds, feelings, and culture of people. Even if you copy the style of your friends you may be only copying their appearance but not their essence.

    Apple's aggressive patenting (that's the only way I can think to describe it) is limiting competitor's ability to release new phones that are appealing to the market. They will now have to take more time to innovate their phones in a way that Apple can't sue them for. Meanwhile, Apple's market share will grow and Androids will fall behind. Put simply Androids franchise is being damaged by Apples lawsuits. That's my take on it.
