Hi, I'm Niall. I'm from England, but I moved to Latvia at the beginning of September 2015. Right now, I'm a teacher at one of the city's top language schools, and teach both private and group classes of approximately intermediate level. I speak German fluently, but not perfectly, and I have some knowledge of Icelandic.

    我尝试翻译 你好!我今天翻译冰雪奇缘的歌曲“随它吧”。它是难可是我做它和我希望是好。我会问一些台词我不懂。你要解释它们吗？我学习普通话一遍我会受听。我不会用汉字所以我道歉如果汉字不是好。 我受过的伤：我－“I accept living like this” 译者 － “What I have been through” 这个家让我留下: 我 － “My family made me stay behind.” 译者 － "This is the home that lets me stay." 我不在这台词动为什么“中” 是。你会结识吗？ “让我在曙光中升华。” “我力量从空气中扩散到地上。” 谢谢！ Ni3 hao3!

    Any mistakes here? "昨天我教Piotr了 他是俄國人和他完他的跟我英語課程了" Pinyin: Zuótiān wô jiaō Piotr le. Tā shì éguórén hé tā wán tāde gēn wô yīngyû kèchéng le. Hopefully there are no mistakes in the writing. I had to convert it from pinyin and it may have got muddled. Please note I am trying more to learn to speak that to read and write.

    As I read the original text through, I automatically filled the blanks in as "was coming" and "had roared". "Roared" instead of "had roared" sounds okay to me.

    Yes, they're pretty much interchangeable. "You are who you always were" carries the connotation of being the same person, whereas "You are as you always were" means more that you've not changed. It's a very minor difference in meaning, so I wouldn't worry about it.

    This is mostly very good, there's only two or three issues that I can see. I've capitalised my changes, just so they're easier to spot. "Party A agrees that any alteration of the main contract (includING but not limited to delaying THE expiration of credit fulfillment) by Party B and THAT the creditor does not need to notify Party A."

    "Attached" generally just means connected to. It can also refer to someone liking someone else. "He was attached to me" "The dog was attached to a pole". In emails, it is often used as a noun to refer to a file that comes with the email, maybe a picture or a document. "I read the attached and thought it was great!" "Forensics" is a branch branch of policing, where officers look at the details of the crime scene and work out what happened, such as the position of a body, or fingerprints on weapons. In your example, it's an adjective which means "specific" or "tiny". "Other-than-Orthodox" is another way of saying "Unorthodox", which means unusual. "Unorhodox" is slightly negative, so "Other-than-Orthodox" is used. Hopefully that helps.

    This is a strange scenario, and I'm not sure either answer is quite right. If he had bought the Mini to replace the Audi (and therefore still uses the Audi), "was" would be correct. However, because he still uses the Audi, he would probably respond with "The last car I bought was an Audi", "The car I bought before that/the Mini was an Audi", or just "it was an Audi". If this is a test or question, and these are the only two options you have, I would suggest going with "My last car was an Audi"; that's the regular form, but it doesn't exactly fit with this example. Hopefully that helps.
