Hello! I lived in China for a year and since returning to Ireland my language level has gotten progressively worse. Something has to be done about this! I'd love to meet some Chinese friends and I'd be enthusiastic about teaching English in return. I have an undergraduate degree in English Literature if that makes me seem more appealing as a language-exchange partner! :P Looking forward to hearing from you! :) 这是我中文描述: 我正在学习本科,一半是汉语一半是英文。 我已经学了四年汉语了但是我本来开始学汉语,当时我们教授教的汉语,级是非常非常低。 我去年到上海学了一年的中级汉语。紧张极了!每天都教授让我学到身体垮了!我发现你们中国学生的 ”勤劳致富“ 想法很气派!我羡慕你们中国人的努力! 我回到爱尔兰的时候,我们大学的教授把我们当做本子。让我们再学初级汉语!很可惜。 我瞎忙了几月,什么汉语也没学习。所以我现在下定决心要坚持下去学汉语。无论我们功课低,我也要自己学下去! 请帮助我, 我热情地会帮助你学习英语!是我母语,还我在学英文所以能力很宽。 我对语言,健康,读书,政理,历史,文化,技术,等等感兴。 这是我! 我中文名字是柯达娜。 请给我发信吧!

    中国人!请帮助我同学。

    你们好,我同学在写她的大四论文, 还有一个调查想让谁个中国人来做。

    是关于中国中学的性教育。我知道是很个人的问题但是匿名的调查。 可以帮助你在真实的环境练习英语。

    It never rains but it pours

    To complain too often will make you a spinster. With so much disagreeableness, I could hardly breathe. Putting them out there, putting what out there? the things will be much better. If you mean that talking about things will make you feel better, then it is ususal for English speakers to say putting "it" out there will make one feel better.


    First I will talk about back home during the Spring Festival. I bought the ticket online in advance, and I printed the information before getting the ticket at the ticket window. Ticket desk is perhaps more fluent.

     

    I'd forgotten the ticket, worse still, the printed information didn't help matters. I had no choice but to buy another. Oh, melted money made my heart almost broken.
    To escort relatives and acquaintances of in their coming and departure their coming and going, my family was utterly exhausted, still nerve - racking for money. How could I find any fun in sights of this?

    Melted money is translated directly from Chinese? In English you may say waste of money, or money gone down the drain.

    Made my heart almost broken is better said "almost made my heart break."

    The waste of money almost made my heart break

    That money gone down the drain almost made my heart break.

    I'm not sure what you mean by nerve-wracking for money...

     


    I was caught in a traffic jam on my way to Kunshan, because there were many collisions on the expressway. Kept in a sealed carriage for 9.5h, not even a drop of water passed my lips. I was intending to take a taxi after getting off, but the drivers overcharged me, getting behind the non-registered cars! However, I still chose to take a minibus, thanks to a couple going together <-- (I'm not sure what this means), slightly less apprehension. It was already midnight when I cleaned up and dropped (fell) (collapsed) onto the bed. Till the next morning at 7:30, I was aware of taking nothing but tepid boiled water around 200 ml for 23 h.

    It wasn't until the next morning at 7:30 that I was aware I had taken nothing but 200ml of tepid boiling water in 23hrs.

    I am not sure if you mean you were not aware until 7:30, or at 7:30 you realised it had been 23hrs since last drinking...

     

    I felt faint, first tasted hunger! First tasted hunger - I am not sure what you mean here? That you were very hungry? Or that you felt hungry for the first time?


    Opening day of work, I got a call for an interview. Afterwards I searched the relevant information online. It turned out to be a fraud before I had time to laugh up my sleeve.

    This made me laugh! :) I love this saying! This is a direct translation from Chinese?

    I'm sorry I wish I could help you here, I know there is an equivalent in English but my mind is a blank!

     

    They say an unfortunate man would be drowned in a tea-cup. I hurt my tongue while chewing gum, lacerated my right palm putting on a hairpin, tipped over the bowl while eating my soup ~I don't know what follows! Although things are not going very smoothly, I tell myself not to be sentimental. Keep my chin up and be a better woman!

     

    I think you write very well, I thoroughly enjoyed your story! When I was living in China it seemed like every day was a struggle. At least  two things would go wrong every day, and if one day nothing went wrong, the next two days would be hell! :P


    I hope you can get through this struggle.


    Your English is great! 很羡慕你语言的能力。

    Spring Festival

    Though my family don't often use the Lunar calendar, Spring Festival is the traditional festival for everyone in China.Today is the second day of the new year. I went to my grandma's house, I had a great time there. My grandma is 85 years old this year and she's still in good health. Not only me but everyone in my family hopes  that she will have a long life .~~~~Best wishes to everyone~~~~新年快乐!

     

    This was well written! In order to increase an impression of fluency you may want to up your use of contractions: do+not = "don't", she+is = "she's"


    Also, after every full stop or comma you must put a space!


    Other than that, as far as I know, there is no adjective that can act as an equivalent for "long-lived".


    加油! Very good.

    羡慕中国想法 我在中国发现中国人在工作和学习方法跟欧洲人根本不一样。 中国学生不是勤勤恳恳地学习就是勤勤恳恳地锻炼身体。哪儿是勤勤恳恳地休息吧!;) 所以我一看中国学生就开起来学得很努力。我不就是学生呢。如果有时间一定要学习。 我们在爱尔兰比起中国人来很懒。

    我想好好学习汉语

    你好!我正在学习本科,一半是汉语一半是英文。 我已经学了四年汉语了但是我本来开始学汉语,当时我们教授教的汉语,级是非常非常低。
    我去年到上海学了一年的中级汉语。紧张极了!每天都教授让我学到身体垮了!我发现你们中国学生的 ”勤劳致富“ 想法很气派!我羡慕你们中国人的努力!
    我回到爱尔兰的时候,我们大学的教授把我们当做本子。让我们再学初级汉语!很可惜。 我瞎忙了几月,什么汉语也没学习。所以我现在下定决心要坚持下去学汉语。无论我们功课低,我也要自己学下去!

    请帮助我, 我热情地会帮助你学习英语!是我母语,还我在学英文所以能力很宽。

    我对语言,健康,读书,政理,历史,文化,技术,等等感兴。

    这是我!
    我中文名字是柯达娜。
    请给我发信吧!
