    My three writing excercises for the week: 1. A note: School You go to a new school now. Write a note to your friend Julie about the school. In your note: Tell Julie where your school is. say which teacher you like best and why Hey Julie, I thought I'd write to you a note about my new school which I've been going to for a week now. It is just outside the city on a hill in front of the woods. A psychiatric hospital and several shops are nearby down the road. So far the chemistry teacher is my favorite. She's friendly and understanding. I'll write again soon. Homeyra 2. An email: Going to the cinema You and two friends are going to go to the cinema at the weekend. You want to invite your friend, Alex, to go with you. Write an email to Alex. In your email: ask Alex to go with you tell Alex what film you are going to see say when and where you will meet Hey Alex, Are you free on Saturday night? I am going to the cinema with B and M. Can you come with us? We'll be seeing that new anime movie I told you about yesterday. If you can, meet us at 7 by the bakery. Homeyra 3.

    They're not completely sure if the person's eye color should be labeled as "olive", but olive gives probably the most accurate descriptin of their eye color, like an at least 80 percent match.

    Have the lyrics up? Hi "I try to refocus myself on the music and have the lyrics up so I have a visual to focus on." I don't get the "have the lyrics up" part in the quoted sentence. Can someone please kindly explain it to me?

    What's the difference between "I'm invited." and "I've been invited."? 1. I'm invited to the party. 2. I've been invited to the party. Any difference in usage?

    Thank you, Anita.

    I guess you're right about the visuals. It really does help a lot. 

    Never thought of podcasts before. I might find them less boring!

    How to improve my listening

    Hi everyone!

    I need some suggestions to improve my listening skill. I've tried watching movies and listening to audio books, but for some reason I usually get annoyed and bored.

    When watching a movie,

    - if a higher level of listening than my own is needed to understand what's being said, I feel annoyed because I also want to enjoy the movie! I realized that I should find something close to my own level. I wonder where to start.

    - if I use English subtitles, I can understand the movie much better, but then it seems like I'm improving my reading skill rather than listening! I realized that I'd better not use subtitles.

    When listening to an audio book, I almost always get bored immediately because I don't find myself interested in the topic. It takes a lot of effort for me to comcentrate.

    Please share your experiences with me. I'd be glad to hear about it. Any tip or suggestion is appreciated.

    Is it OK to say "Are you not thirsty" instead of "Aren't you thirsty?"? I've seen this structure in novel and poetry.

    What is the difference between emphasizing on "no"/"is" in this sentence? 1. There is NO other place. 2. There IS no other place.

    معرفی

    سلام! اسم من زیزی است و میخوام زبان فارسی یاد بگیرم.
    من در لندان زندگی میکنم و پارسال ازدواج کردم.
    شوهرم مهندس است و من دندان پزشک هستم. ما هر دو در لندان کار میکنیم.
    ماه گذشته کلاس فارسی را شروع کردم و معلم من خیلی خوب است. اسمش اّقا رضا است.
    هفته گذشته یک شعر یاد گرفتم:
    یکی درد و یکی درمان پسندد، یکی وصل و یکی هجران پسندد...من از درمان و درد و وصل و هجران، پسندم آن چه را جانان پسندد.

    خیلی سپاشگزار میشم اگر شما نوشته ی من را تصحیح کنید.

    خیلی ممنون :)

    -----------

    موفق باشی زیزی :)

    من می پرسم = I ask

    من پرسیدم = I asked

    من می پرسیدم = I used to/would ask

    من داشتم می پرسیدم = I was asking

    من دارم می پرسم = I am asking

    If you know the simple present tense of the verb, then it's easy to find the aorist tense: Omit "می" from the beginning.

    Example:

    می پرسم (I ask) => پرسم

    می پرسی (you ask) => پرسی

    می پرسد (he/she/it asks) => پرسد

    می پرسیم (we ask) => پرسیم

    می پرسید (you ask) => پرسید

    می پرسند (they ask) => پرسند
