    Good old time I have here It's been over two years since i use italki,and i really like to use it .but sadly, because of some reason, i don't use it a lot as before . Italki is a unforgettable website for me, i met a lots of good people here. we were chatting with each other, and discussing about how to learn a new language. And the most important thing to me is that, i met my boyfriend in here .two years ago, we were just stranges.we don't know more about each other.but for now,we are good friends, or even much better, we are lovers. Lucky i am in love with my best friend. That's mean a lot to me. I think that's why now i come back here again.the website is just so unforgettable to me. If possible i will keep on using it , if anything ,i will go back to here and write someting new from time to time. Besides, my English need to be improved .

    Do you know what's IPA yesterday i had an online lesson.it's about how to improve your pronunciation and explain the main reasones why you can't speak like English native speakers . it's very useful to learn it. but in the middle of the lesson, i was surprised by what the teacher told us.he says "i know that when chinese they started to learn English, they learn 26letters and IPA first, but the truth is that almost 99%English native speakers,they even don't know what's IPA let alone learn it, if they do learn IPA, it must be for doing linguistic research . " then i was like "whattt? "native speakers they don't learn phonetics? but why their pronunciation so good ?well, i know it's a silly question.haha but i am really curious about how native speaker learn to pronounce a new word they never know before if they don't learn IPA. is there any different way to learn how to pronounce? if so, please tell me, cuz it might be a good method to learn it. cuz i really don't like IPA that much .

    我的工作）

    现在我是老师，但是两年以后我的工作将是给(you will be a party planer two years later, but not now. so you need to  add "将"before the 是，将是which mean will be )予生气者(it doesn't make sense, i suggest that next time you can write it both in English and chinese )。我的关键任务是逗孩子乐、举办生日晚会。你想你孩子的生日(不乱、有顺利的结果吗)有条不紊的进行吗？有我给予生气者的帮助是成功的保证。
    父母要知道都是谁按时解决什么人物祝贺他们的孩子、详细地讨论生日晚会的组织、规定特点。
    如果你们问给予生气者帮助(i think if you are trying to say )"ask for help "here ，别麻烦，生日晚会是按照你们自己的计划进行的！

    nice try, you can do better next time.

    what's "porochial "meaning in those sentences? ? i have been reading Oliver Twist .but there are some some sentences i don't exactly know what that mean. ""they had better not！"said Mr. Bumble ,clenching his fist. 'let me see any man 'porochial or extra-porochial, as would presume to do it; and i can tell him that he wouldn't do it a second time " and do you have any good advice for reading a masterpiece like that? appreciate

    三者的意思没有根本上的区别，都是被说话人明白说话人的语言或行为，如果说硬要区分一下的话，可以从它的语体色彩来分析。 知道，it's a common words, To show that you what people know talk to you For instance:A: tomorrow you should come here more earlier, and don't be late again B: okay got it好， 知道了/明白了 知晓 usually used in written language. 她还不知晓这件事的缘由。 晓得we always use it in spoken language, actually, it's more like colloquial words in dialect. According to what i know, it's come from Sichuan. e.g A: 你个瓜娃子，晓不晓得上课不能玩儿手机!don't play your phone when you are learning or in your class B: 噢，晓得咯 OK，I know that Sorry if i didn't make my answer clear, Cuz you know my English is not good enough.

    Hmmm, first of all, you know, practice makes perfect, so if you practice it a lot, you will find it's not that hard to write characters fastly .for example, I usually write 1000characters or so in a day. and it's quite normal that we are supposed to finish our assignment with 3000words. we have no choice but write as fast as we can.and if you interested in calligraphy, you can choice the written form you like.

    你认为哪种颜色最好?or 你认为哪种颜色最棒? sorry, I can't open this link so I can't answer your question.I don't know about someone else but at least for me , I think black is the best color. in my mind it's a kinda cool color, Cuz it's the color of night, you know, cold, mysterious, adventure, but I also think red is the best.it's full of powerful, passion, sooo it's hard to say.

    actually, this question related to Chinese's grammar. it's called Pronunciation changes (or successive phonetic change ),which means the pronunciation of some characters would be changed if you put them before another characters, just like "不"and"一".in Chinese we called it 语音流变，I thought Laurence have given us so many good examples, but I didn't agree with him too much on that "when you say "为什么不?"meaning why not, here 不is 1st tone "normally, we also use 4th in this sentence instead of 1st ,to express the mood of rhetorical question. and when we want to express"为什么不这样呢?-why do we. ..we often use 1st "that's it, and Laurence really did a good job.

    Tiger Mom and Helicopter Parent Recently, I happened to read an article from a book. it made me think a lot. it talked about a quite interesting topic for me,like "Tiger Mom "and "helicopter parent".I am not sure that phrases like that have really made their way into everyday language? if so, how do you about it? I am a typically chinese girl. I didn't mean to stereotype, at least, I have a traditional chinese parent.when I was a little girl I was not allowed to do anything with my parents permitted. but that's fine by me. I thought that all parents would do like that:just pay attention to their kids, clear all the obstacles ahead of them.,being a parent is minimizing risk for their children. but I found out maybe I was wrong. when I was talking about our parent with my best friend ,it reminds me of what I have gone through. I was not allowed saty at a friends' house overnight; I had to come back home home before 10:30 at night; I need to keep distance from those boys, yep, and they would stop me do anything that they thought what would bring dangerous for me. I think it's not mere a coincidence, I talked about my parents with my friend, and Uh-oh, after a short while, I read this article. so I was wondering is there something wrong with kind of "overparenting style "?

    我們的稻草床

    我們的床底都是6寸的空木(if you mean hollow wood, it's much better use 空心木instead of 空木 )。在上面我們用布包圍很多稻草(the subject is not exist if you don't use "在"at the begin of the sentence, normally, we say 用…just like use in English. and you know, use sth to do, so 用布包is verb, but包圍is a kinda status of something 。有一些床上面的草是方型的經過加工的(I guess you want to express 經過加工的，if I am right, in chinese, we don't use 過工的，)方形的(if you want to describe the shape of it. and it usually be used before nouns. it's  idiomatic uses)稻草，(這種加工過的稻草)很硬而且不會(被)破壞。如果沒有(事先用)布(包裹它)，也沒有問題(it's doesn't matter 也沒關係)，只不過(人睡在上面the subject of this sentence is not exited )可能就(會if it's your assumption, you need to use "可能會 ",just like "might be " in English )不舒服或者覺得很癢。

    另外一種(是)只把鬆鬆的(鬆鬆的sounds little weird in chinese )(蓬鬆的)稻草推進(推進?)布里，(oops. where is your subject of this sentence?学 學(这种床)比較軟，可是如果弄不好或者推來推去就會(很容易)變形。我非常喜歡這種的(you should delete "的 ")from this sentence )I like this kind of bed 床。在我(的)家鄉，村子(里的)床都是這 (样的)。是我都在很多其他國家城市裡很難帶過來而且很難再次造。it's a little hard for me to understand it. but I guess you want to express like that (但是我在其他地方很难类似于我们家乡的这种床)尤其是旅遊的時候根本沒有這種床。

    可是(我)最近遇到一個人，他们跟我说，也許可以(帮我做)幾個(类似于家乡的那种床)。我很開心，很久沒有睡在這種床上了。
