Hello, I'm a Chinese American student from California currently attending school at American University in Washington, DC. I am learning Chinese because I am going to China in January and would like to speak fluent Chinese. I am looking for practice partners I can help and that can help me. As a native English speaker, anyone who wants to learn English and can teach/speak Chinese or Korean with me routinely is welcome!

Ozzie was also very nice and polite.His Chinese is good but he still needs to learn more new words to enlarge his vocabulary for his exam.And I will surely keep trying my best to help him and make a good plan for our lessons.Thank you so much and see you soon.O(∩_∩)O

    How do you say "Out of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most" in Chinese? How do you say "Out of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most" in Chinese? It is a saying by Mark Twain =]

    I reread your entry several times. Are you trying to say that your mother is having second thoughts about coming to see you in England? If so, here are my suggestions:

     

    _____________

     

    It's ridiculous!    I would use "It's" over "That's"; "That" suggests you're responding to someone else. 

    I'm sooo upset since my mother started wondering about coming to England to see me!

     

    When you use the word "wonder" you want to follow it up with what you're wondering about. You might want to choose a better word as well. "Reconsider(ing) (her decision to come to England...)" or "Questioning(v.) (her decision to come to England...)" might be better alternatives. A common term is also "expressing doubt (about coming...)"


    Guess what! She already booked her flight ticket to England. Also, I booked some coach tours and applied for my holiday to my college for 1 week!

    The reason she's wondering is that because of her mother. By her mother, I means my grandmother.

     

    When my mother talked about her trip in England to her, she,my grandmother wasn't positive about to letting her go there alone since she is was too worried about her. It's too overprotective.

     

    But I'm going to pick her up at the airport and also take her back to the airport when she leaves here England.

     

    I would be specific because the noun in question (England) hasn't been stated yet. 


    So I think, "What is the problem!?" She won't be alone during her trip in England since she will stay with me all the time.
    And what about me?!!?!? I came here alone. I'm living here alone. I do everything by myself.
    I talked about it to my European friend and he said Asians tend to be overprotect for of their children...

    I'm gonna talk about it with my mother tomorrow anyways.

    The classifier is implied/ignored in this case. Easier to say.
