I'm from Miami,Fl. my name is Derek Brown. I own a small labor company and coach Middle/High school wrestling/locha. I would like to learn how to speak Spanish cause I grew up around it and it makes no sense that I can't speak it. I'm looking to get help to communicate with the other half of my community.

    First time on italki

    It is my first time on italki. I would like to do a short test to prove if it works. I already corrected a spanish text, now I am writing one in spanish to see if somebody corrects it. I feel this web site could be very useful, but its success will depend on the people that are using it. I hope to be a good spanish teacher and I would like to find a english speaker too.

    Spanish-English Translation | Could you please check my mistakes?

    I'm translating a text about architecture and I would like to know my mistakes.
    Thanks in advanced.


    An adult man with his arms raised reaches a height of 7 feet 4 inches. Within a list plenty of measures, which is within reach, numerous operations can shape daily space. This measurement was established by Le Corbusier as a Modulor system, setting it as a suitable standard for people; his measurement was also appeared as a reaction to excesses or simple inattentiveness in which architecture used to impose “fair” measures of things in the late nineteenth century. Perhaps inattentiveness also comes from the abstraction of meter measures pattern regarding human body. The accurate measurement to human scale is 2.26 which recognize at the same time the adjustment qualities between needs and equipment, routines of life and rendered service by furniture functions and storage.
    Ideally validated in ship cubicles, sleeping cars and airplane passengers’ cabin, just a simple gesture was enough in there to remove objects, to accommodate the back seat, to use the heating system, to adjust the light, to find the toilet or to accommodate the cabin to have some sleep.
    Tiny places and fully equipped which established/establishing friendly and efficient connections/interfaces: product of a rational calculation they omitted expensive things/lavishness to make effective the optimum balance between corporal length and mechanical effectiveness. For Le Corbusier this measure, the 7.4 ft, determined the first horizon of inhabitant environment. It is not a horizon like any other, but an intense and full of consequences one. It is also the most distinctive horizon of new inhabitant’s qualities. He wanted to be coherent with his predicament so far and decided to experience it by using a tiny cubicle for his exclusive usage in his architecture atelier, and another one about the same size in front of the French Riviera coast designated for his rest times. The size of those cubicles is not larger than a confessional, in the narrow place between body and enclosure. These cubicles postulate a luxury which reasoning is not of excess, but justice; reasoning that could only be defined as "poetic".
