I'd love to meet people who are fluent in German and can help me master the language and its mysterious grammar! I'm half Italian, 40% German, and 10% Native American (Cherokee to be exact). I'd like to move to Germany one day. I also listen to a lot of German music. I'm also more than happy to help anyone with their English. I'm obviously fluent in the language but also excellent in grammar, spelling, etc. I've never gotten anything below an A in my English classes in both high school and college. If you have a question about grammar, punctuation, or anything else in the English language, I can help. English is a VERY weird language, I know, but I can help. Languages aside, I'm a student studying business and psychology at a community college in the States. I enjoy watching football, WWE wrestling, exercising, movies, and world history. I work part time at a grocery store.

    Great, great social media game offering a real second life.
     

    Lately, I was playing this game, it [is] called Erepublik. In this game, we can be and [omit "we can"] do anything we want. Even Guardian.co.uk said about this game, "eRepublik offers a real second life".
    We can make a lot of friend[s] across the world, there are many countries of this game [Not sure what you mean... do you mean many countries use the game?], eUSA, eUK, eBrazil, eIndonesia (my country), and many more. In eIndonesia, I was a press, a congressman, and a member of [a] political party, but you can be much more: you can be president (but it [is] very difficult), ambassador, minister, commander, [and] miss eUniverse. [I] have [made] a lot of friend[s] from this game: friends from Turkey, USA, Serbia, [and]Chile.
    One thing that I like [about] this game is community, we can use any media to talk, irc, PM, whatapps, Facebook, and sometime we make gathering in RL (real life)

    if you want, you can join through this
    http://www.erepublik.com/en/referrer/Vega+Punk (this is my referal link, but dont worry, I dont get any money from this referal, it just make[s] you as my eChildren ^^ and me as your eFather ^^ in that game)

    but if you worry about my link referal, you can use erepublik.com
    please enjoy

    Everything is pretty good. Just remember to capitalize after periods. Also, the word "I" is always capitalized, as well as names of games and websites (eRepublik and Facebook).

    Yes, the first poster is right. However, I never heard anyone get yelled at for using the word Caucasian instead of white. Kind of like how people use "African American" instead of black. I would use the words white and black for casual conversation between friends, but Caucasian and African American sound better in a formal paper or something like that. To avoid offending people, Caucasian and African American works best.

    Yes, leave the "a". It doesn't quite sound right without it.

    What the second poster said! It's used in the dative case. My German teacher explained it as whenever you're doing something to/for someone. Like "to/for my father" is "meinem Vater". It's a bit confusing and I'm just learning it myself, haha. There's also certain verbs that you always use the dative case with. I believe some of those are hilfen and glauben.

    The first person to answer was correct. Some words in English really make no sense and there's no reason for them to be spelled that way. Us native speakers don't get it sometimes either... haha.

    better alone ...

    better alone i don't wanna make more mistakes, I've discovered that i don't have why make a lie if i know that i can't feel nothing in this moment just want live day by day without any person more in my life... forgive me , but this is the truth , i'm better alone ...

     

    Better [off] alone...
    [I am] better [off] alone[.] I don't wanna* make more mistakes. I've discovered that I don't have ... ? not sure what you're saying you don't have. Why lie if I know I can't feel anything? I just want to live day by day without any [other] person in my life. Forgive me, but this is the truth. I'm better off alone.

     

    Some of it was confusing but you got your basic message across. Just remember to capitalize the beginning of each sentence, and also always capitalize the word I.

     

    *"Wanna" is more "slang" English. When you're writing something serious, you should say "want to". Wanna is more for speaking out loud, or something casual (ex. "Wanna go to the mall later?"

    Destiny

    I still cannot get to sleep now. So many things in my head. Today I finally accepted the [truth]. I have to stay here, in a city [that] I really really hate. Why? As if I wanted to go out. I always stayed. While I wanted to leave there, I had to go. That's really a joke. I want what I can't get.
    While I'm not a positive girl, I'm not sunny and opened.

    ^^ Not sure what sunny and opened mean in this context. You said you're NOT positive. Did you mean you're not negative, but you're not overly happy and out-going? A bit confused on this.

     

    I am feeling badly now.
    I looked at my boyfriend, he is sleeping, I think if he would go to XinJiang to teach children, and I stayed in ShenYang. We cannot keep our relationship for a long time. We might have some problems so that We couldn't trust each other. Even he would always worry about me. I'm a person who hates to explain anything. I thought of a lot of things [that] happened three years ago. I was so hopeful that we could get together after we graduated from our college. I fell in love with another boy, he was the first love for me. But that only lasted six months. From now on I didn't any make any promises anymore.


    Now I'm not sure whether I would go the same way.


    I have been crying so much times that I rarely couldn't remember.
    --This line is confusing. Do you mean to say, "I can't even remember how many times I've cried", or that you can't forget what happened and that's why you cry?

     

    Nobody knew. Because I will show them a pretty me tomorrow.

     

    Some ache must be put in own hearts.
    --This is a bit confusing too. Not sure what you mean here. Do you mean to say that you're hiding your pain inside your heart?
