My usual (typical) day

Hello. Today I want to tell you about my usual day...
So today it's Monday and I got up early, at 6.30 a. m. I have eaten ate a piece of cake and some tea. I love tea!=)
Then I went to university. I'm a third-year-student.) Classes started at 8.00 a. m. We had 3 hours of sculpture modeling and 3 hours of architectural designing. During At sculpture we cut the relief in plaster. After it that i I had 30 minutes to have a eat lunch (I had to eat lunch in thirty minutes). I chose a salad and tea). Then on arch. designing I almost did not do anything. We design settlement now (not entirely clear here ... We had to design settlements?). But at the moment I only have an abstract idea about it now, so I just sat there and scribbled draw scribbles.=)
After university I went to buy cartons for models with my sister)) So I was at home by at 4.00 p. m. I had a dinner and went to the gym. I love this place! I relax there. There are so many nice people! They are the best of all because they look after their body, they want to change it. It is said that if you can not change yourself, then you can not do anything.
So after the gym I usually do my homework. And it's terrible!!!! Usually I go to bed at 12.00 p. m. But today I want to sleep, so homework will wait)

Nicely written in an informal style. I presume you do a degree in art or architecture, hence a lot of specialist sculpture vocabulary were lost on me. Be careful with your articles, because I understand that Russian speakers aren't used to articles, but other than that it is wonderfully written! I'd love to read more notebook entries from you. :) 

Can you help? I have a problem with the word "yang".

hello friends, I always get confused with the word "yang", when not using it, I very confusing word, thank you very much., terima kasih !!!

Hey! Yang is something that is quite an easy thing to understand but difficult to explain. A lot of foreingers I know have problems with this, so don't worry! For now, try to get the basic meaning of these following sentences. I have written a proper translation, followed by a literal translation so you can see what 'yang' really means (green coloured):

1) Bukumu yang mana?

Official translation: Which is your book?

Literal translation: Which is the one that is your book?

2) Yang itu!

Official translation: That one!

Literal translation: That is the one!

3) Siapa yang berbicara bahasa indonesia tadi? 

Official translation: Who spoke Indonesian just now?

Literal translation: Who is the one who spoke Indonesian just now?

4) Yang berbicara bahasa indonesia tadi itu Adit.

Official/Literal translation: The one who spoke Indonesian just now was Adit.

(Here the official and literal translations match).

4) Buku saya yang merah.

Offical translation: My book is the red one.

Literal translation: My book is the one that is red.

5) Pencuri yang datang ke rumahmu kemaren sudah ditangkap polisi. 

Offical translation: The thief who came to your house yesterday has now been caught.

Literal translation: The thief, the one who came to your house yesterday has now been caught.
 

I hope I'm not over-complicating things, but that the literal transnations are generally what yang means, and the various shades of meaning that 'yang' conveys.

Cheers and good luck!

Kalau bahasa indonesia menjadi bahasa internasional, ya pasti asyik dong! Aku selalu bangga menjadi orang indonesia dan selalu mengangkat bahasa kita, tapi sayangnya orang yang benar-benar tau apa itu bahasa indonesia masih dikit sekali. Mudah-mudahan dengan efek globalisasi dan perkembangan ekonomi Indonesia, pada masa kedepannya bakal ada lebih banyak yang ingin mempelajari bahasa kita. 

 

How can we how to become fluent in English?

Guys, I'm im going to talk about abt fluency in languages and how can we achieve fluency in English. First, we have to find out what we are lacking the reasons, where we lack?. We all know the rules of grammar, we know how to make sentences and we also know how to make conversation interesting. so where we lack, so the answer is What we lack in is vocabulary or word power; we don't have a strong vocab, so whenever we try to speak in English, we start speaking well but after some time we feel that we run out of don't have words to say/use. We start thinking: "What word should I use in this situation?", and we get stuck in the middle of our conversation with others. But guys, this is not a big problem; this problem can be solved, we just need to put some extra efforts to improve our vocabulary. make our word power strong ,, for that We need to learn new words everyday, and after learning those wordsm to try and to add those words into your conversation, and practice those words. 5 new words everyday would make your word power strong enough, so guys, if you u really want to be fluent in English get fluency in English, start learning new words... and after 1 month you will see that you will have 150 new words in your vocab, and those 150 new words can jazz your English fluency up.. ) :)

Well written and great advice given, I agree that the greatest challenge for foreigners in English is its complex and intricate vocabulary. Learning new words and continuous practice will surely help!
