The World Cup

The world cup season has already arrived. How is your team doing?
Our team drew the game against Russia the day before yesterday. Most Koreans are satisfied with this result. The team played several games (matches) before The World Cup, but we lost them all. These results made most people depressed, including me. After that game, we have revived our fighting spirit, now I really want our team to win the next match. I will cheer them up as much as I can. Go go go our team!

Good luck! The Russia game was good. Algeria will be a difficult match though :P

Unfortunately England's qualification now depends on Italy's results :(

Letter to a friend

Hello Carol!

It was nice to read news about you. Young people in Spain are used to practicing a lot of sport after School classes.

Also, the majority of the students prefer playing football because it is the main sport in the country. The TV news (or "the news on TV") ususally focuses on football whereas it forgets to talk about other traditional sports such as athletics.

Here the same thing happens with posters of sport celebrities, above all with football celebrities like Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid F.C. because he is one of the main stars.

My brother plays football in my town’s team so I have a wide variety of photos and videos. If you prefer watching a video you only need to visit this website: www.footballteamsp.es and then(?) watch.

I hope all this would be useful for your presentation.

All the best,

Ángel

I put "the news on TV" in brackets, as to me it sounds more natural than "TV news". However it may be a phrase other people use so i wouldn't want to delete it.

Your English is good :)

I'm very happy. I love italki. :)

Yesterday, I posted a question. After that, many people explained my question enthusiatically.
Whenever I speak or write English, there is much ambiguity.
It can make me hesitate to speak or write English.

But from now on, I think I can resolve those ambiguities through italki.
So I believe it can make me confident to speak English.

I love italki.

BTW, I really want to give a correction to someone who wants to learn Korean.
I tried to do it once.
But I felt it was very difficult even though I'm a native Korean speaker.

How do you guys explain or proofread my entry well? :)

I really admire you all who proofread and answer questions about English.

is it correct?

2 measures of the same object differ by a few millimeters. An average was taken of the difference.




Most of the time in english we say we "take" an average or an average was "taken".
