- vectores en español Hay una discución en wikipedia sobre la definición matemática de vectores en español. En inglés, un vector puede tener "magnitude and direction" pero en español se dice que un vector tiene "módulo", "dirección", y "sentido". Hay dos palabras para describir un vector en inglés, y hay tres así en español. http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector Esta definición me pareció extraña hasta que leí la discusión. El razón es el diccionario RAE. Dice que dirección significa <<Línea sobre la que se mueve un punto, que puede ser recorrida en dos sentidos opuestos.>> Entonces es claro que también el sentido es necesario en español. La palabra inglés direction comprende dirección y sentido. En realidad el significado del vector es mismo en los ambos idiomas, pero se construye de palabras distintas. Ahora no me sopresa que las palabras no son exactamente análogas.December 1, 201370
- Nombres para las comidas del día Hoy estudié los nombres para las comidas del día. Palabras significan diferentemente (?) entre España y Latinoamerica. Pero hay las mismas diferencias con las palabras en inglés. Por ejemplo, cuando me despierto, como un plátano y yogur. No es mucho, y literalmente es desayuno. Después de ir al gimnasio, cerca las 9 por la mañana, como una tortilla españa. ¿Qué se llama? ¿El segundo desayuno? ¿Almuerzo? Me parece que la palabra para esto es diferente para cada país - o peor - para cada persona viviendo en un país. ¿Qué piensas?October 20, 2013120
My English Life
I have been learning English for a long time, but my English is still not good.
I have a dreams -- it's riding a bicycle to travel around the world. In the past year, I went to Nepal, Vietnamese, Taiwan, Kazakhstan....so I know the importance of language. But I don't know how to learning method. If you want to help me, add me. Thanks!
I majored education, and I have a CIPT. If you want to learning chinese, I must be your best partner.
Thanks everyone.Maybe you should try immersing yourself. Watch a show in English, find podcasts to practice listening, set your computer's language to English. Try to think in English while doing routine tasks. On top of this, actually speaking English is important too. I would like to learn Chinese, but I still have to learn the basics.
PS, your dream sounds awesome.

I am graduated from faculty of science the chemistry department at the University of Cairo in 2009 , and worked in many jobs: first as a medical rep, then as an operator in small company, and then in a petrochemical company in a good position as a chemical process engineer. After that i traveled to Saudi Arabia and worked as a field engineer for a petroleum company. I met a lot of people during my travel and in my word (?) , and I learned a lot of things from them.
Faculty of Science seems to be the official name in English, but it would sound awkward to many English speakers, so I changed it. But if you prefer to use "Faculty of Science", then go ahead.

When we are about to take make an important decision in our lives, lots of things show for us which may affect our decisions largely there are consequences to consider, so we do not know what to do and become confused, so would we take the risk or step back for the comfort of the people that we really care about? And at the moment of taking decision making, many questions came come to my mind. We can feel it's going to explode, because we cant find the answers, and no one can help you. So will you take the risk or what are you going to do ??
A few of my changes are more about style than language.

I signed up on the website to improve my English. However, I've continued to use the Spanish notepad too. I've learned many things through corrections. Spanish is as beautiful and complicated as English. I'll continue studying them both. Although I speak Spanish, there is always something new to learn.
I'm new to the site, so I don't know how the notepads work, but I think you meant "continuing" the Spanish notepad. I suspect "following" came from a mistranslation of "siguiendo", but I could be wrong.
Otherwise really good!
