Ghost Stories 2
When the baby's grand dad died, his folks realized that the day and the time were just the same as the day their baby spoke for the first time. But, they thought it was just a mere coincidence.
Since then, the baby had never opened his mouth again, but 3 years later, the baby [finally] opened his mouth again, and the word was "grandma". His parents were delighted for the to hear his voice, but his grandma could not truly be glad for about it profoundly. You can tell guess the reason--yes, she was afraid of her death.
And then, the day had came. It had been over one year since he spoke for the second time. It was just the same day at the same time. His grandma died. His parents cried and thought it was not a coincidence. It must be a curse or something. Their baby's word must be or become a curse. What should we do? They didn't know what to do. They suffered terribly, but they could not do anything but leave it be as the time went by.
It was Only about 1 month later, the baby opened his mouth for the third time.
When he opened his mouth, there was only his dad beside him.
So it was only his dad to heard his third voice him speak, and the word was...
"Dad"
"Oh my god, oh my god," he said to himself. He could not tell his wife about it.
He had been became more and more terrified of the day coming, day after day.
Then, eventually, the day had come came, but there were still a few hours left.
He was very healthy and he could not imagine his death dying.
He would not have gone didn't go out to provide against prevent any possible accidents.
And then...the time had come.
But he was just remain the same. He didn't hadn't died.
"Thank god," he cried.
But his wife could not understand why her husband was thanking god.

Someone knocked on the door.
The husband opened the door. Then There was a woman next at the door.
She was crying and said, "My husband has died today."
He was surprised and asked her why and when.
He could not believed it instantly at first, because he saw had seen that her husband looked very fine yesterday.
She told him the whole story of the day and he knew realized the fact that the time of her husband's death was the time that he was supposed to die.
He glared at his sobbing wife.
What a horrible story!
The End."He glared at his sobbing wife." Do you mean "his sobbing wife" or "the sobbing wife"? Also, "glare at" means "look at angrily". Do you mean "look at sadly"?

Je suis une thérapie physique depuis trois mois, mais j'ai encore mal à l'épaule et aux genoux. Chaque jour je dois faire les exercises spécials et deux fois par semaine je vais à un gymnase pour la thérapie physique. Je n'ai que vingt-quatre ans, mais quelquefois je suis si fatiguée que je me sens que j'ai quatre-vingt ans...August 10, 201320
Oh dear body
I woke up early this morning. I was out in the street at 6 o'clock. For what? For a new and fresh body!
Something tells me that my very recent relationship with jogging is going to be hard."Fresh body" sounds a little strange. Maybe: "for a new and improved body"?
Jogging is so difficult... best of luck to you!

C'est toujours un vieux film, parce que la chaîne qui montre ces films veut apprendre l'histoire du film aux gens américains. Donc, récemment, j'ai regardé la plupart de “La Parisienne” avec Brigitte Bardot. Bien que son personnage a manqué de maturité, Brigitte était si charmante que je l'ai aimé bien avant la fin du film. Aussi, elle avait les cheveux incroyables!August 5, 201340
My experience in on italki...
Well, my experience in on italki was [or: has been] enjoyable. I was [or: have been] able to practice in my grammar and many people corrected [or: correct] me when I was [or: am] wrong. I also got [or: I've also been able] to practice my English and Spanish. The good thing about italki is that I got [or: have gotten] to know some people form different countries. This is a fun website to learn a different language or pracitice practice your own language, like in for grammar or speaking. I would recommend this website to my friends.
If you are finished using italki, your verbs are all correct! But, if you will still be using it in the future, the tenses I wrote in orange sound more natural.
0 votedAugust 5, 20130The summer festival!
Today, I went to the a summer festival. and the festival is It's the biggest one [or: the biggest festival] in my city.
I saw various kinds of floats (? is that correct in English? [yes, it is!]) called "Sansha" and "Dashi", and those which are all both big. A lot of men, women and kids were taking part in it the festival, pulling a ropes connected with to the Dashi, speaking loud in a kind of local language (different from not just a dialect), and giving us a happy time making everyone very happy. [or: entertaining everyone.] :D
You'll could see many boothes on the street, and I got some grilled pork on a skewer and "niku-man" ( how what do you call it?) that is made from flour dough, and filled with cooked ground pork (from according to wikipedia, haha).
Oh, it's not easy to explain cultural stuff. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.If "sansha" and "dashi" are two different kinds of floats, you should use "and". But, if they're two words with the same meaning, you can use "or".
"Speaking loud" is okay, but you could also use "shouting" or "chanting".
I think you could say "nikuman" in English. Or, the closest English word is probably "pork bun".
The festival sounds fun! In two weeks, my city will have an ethnic festival with foods and entertainment from many countries. I'm looking forward to it!

For example, heavy car doors might better protect a driver in a car crash, but they are also more difficult to open and make the car use more gas to move. So, the trade-off in your sentence is between "capacity" and "capability". More brigades and ships makes the military more powerful, but constantly upgrading many different kinds of vehicles and weapons in a large military is very difficult.0 votedAugust 5, 20131
