Hi! I'm Eleanor, I am fifteen years old and I am currently living in Luxembourg. I am from the United States, but I speak both English and French fluently because I am in the French educational system. I am currently studying Spanish at school and have an A2 level, but I would like to bring it up to B1. I am also interested in learning German because it is one of the official languages here, and Russian because I lived in Moscow for two years, however my levels in those languages are extremely low. I am looking for either a language teacher or an exchange partner, and I would be willing to help anyone in English or French through e-mail or Skype calls, but I'm not a teacher. I find it hard to explain things simply enough. Anyway, that's pretty much all I've got. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) ♫･*:.｡. .｡.:*･

    The correct spelling is ''maybe'', or sometimes ''may be'' depending on if you are using it as a verb or not, but ''may-be'' is never used. It is either one word or two, but never hyphenated.

    You use "a" when referring to a noun without much precision, or when it's something rather general. "The" is used to refer to a specific object. Ex: There is a dog in the middle of the road. The dog is black. In the first sentence, you use "a" to refer to the dog because you haven't mentioned it before and you don't know any more details about it. In the second one, you would say "the dog" because you've already determined which dog it is; it's the one in the middle of the road.

    Unless either "older" or "younger" is directly in front of the word, you can't tell. There is no specific word for say, "little sister", the way there is in Chinese.

    Charlie is the man who saved [he isn't doing it now, he already did] the princess and because of this she began [again, it's not happening now] to work for him, looking for souls. Charlie seems like a good person. You can use "seems" here, but you have to use "like" afterwards, otherwise it doesn't make any sense. The princess committed a grave offence ["Committed" is just fine here, but it's spelled with two "t"s ^^] and her soul is heavy. I would probably say that her heart is heavy instead, if she's feeling sad or burdened. Other than those things, it's just fine! ^^ Hope I helped!

    I think it sounds like it was written by a foreigner. Personally, I wouldn't say that Adele "is really a great singer" but maybe she "is a really great singer" or she "really is a great singer". Plus, in a dialogue, you wouldn't say "did not" but rather "didn't" because it makes the spoken dialogue more fluent. Why do you ask?
