Hello, I am Timothy and live in Oregon, but grew up in Louisiana. I am a nurse, currently working in an inpatient mental health unit. I have done some traveling for my uncle Sam (US Air Force) and on my own. If I could, I would quit my job now and wander the globe. I want to learn as many languages as possible, but starting with Irish since it really calls to me. I want to met others who are learning Languages as well, and will do a 50/50 trade. Regardless of your native tongue. Anyone learning Irish, Scots, or Welsh please contact me. Will gladly be your training partner.

    Madra How would I write, "My dog's name is Spike?" in Irish. Would it be "Spike is ainm Madra dom?" Go raibh maith agat.

    1) This the correct use of agitate in this sentence. B) Again, you are correct. 2) You are right again. "I get off on rock and roll music." means I enjoy it. Truly, "to get off" is more of an American slang term referring to enjoyment by self sexual pleasure. Sorry, but that is more of the truth. Hope this helps. Overall, you are doing great.

    Sorry, maybe you want to have the guy intentionally do this so the girl will break up with him? That the guy started this so the girl would look like the one wanting to beak up, and not him? I wold say, keep it the same. Let the reader decide what is really going on with this scene. Still a good exchange between two people.

    Girl: It's over between us! Guy:You can't be serious. Just because I gave some random kid a beating? Girl: And loved it! The only time you're happy is when you're hurting people. Guy: Wow! Are you so self-righteous that you actually believe that? You know, when you moved here, you were nothing. You'd walk the halls like a ghost. Being with me made you. Girl: Thank you for making this so much easier. Over all, this was a great exchange between two people. I just add a couple of things, but not much was needed. If you wanted, you could get a lot darker with the dialog. Anyway, keep it up.

    'I know a lot of people are excellent at controlling their emotions. Yet what do they do when they are sad, angry, or heartbroken?" I this what your are looking for in your message? And to answer that message, I usually drink beer and sit with my dog. ;) Good luck on your language journey.

    "I am ashamed of something I have done" or "I did something I am ashamed of" this phrase is not proper English but often said by Americans.

    Hardly any difference that I can tell. They are both correct and can be used interchangeably. "I'm such a fool for not knowing the answer." or "Silly me for not knowing the answer." It is only preference in writing the sentence.

    Great question. The would 'such' is more referring to an event. "It was such a shock to find out Uncle Bob work as a circus clown" or " The amusement park ride was such fun, we wanted to do it again." Where as 'so much fun' is more describing the emotions of something. "Our family had so much fun at the fair, we look forward to going back next year." "Thank you, I had so much fun at your party I will not forget being there." I hope this helps.

    A letter to foreign friends,

    Hello my dear foreign friends. As your Chinese partner, here is a little bit of advice for you. It is important to understand when learning Chinese in China, there are different speech habits. This is due to people's living habits, geographical environments, and cultural backgrounds. So, a lot of friends will help you modify your writing, but use their own speaking habits. It may not be standard Chinese writing, yet the theory will be right. Their own speaking pattern is the best for them. Welcome to learning Chinese. I believe you will succeed!

    亲爱的外国友人你们好，作为一个中国伙伴，在这里给大家一点点建议。在你学习中文时一定要注意：在中国，由于人们生活习惯、地域环境、文化背景等的差异，导致人们的说话方式、说话习惯的不同。所以，在很多朋友帮你们修改中文作文时，他们也一定会用到他们自己习惯的说话方式帮助你修改文章，当然语言这个东西没有一个标准的界线，只要能表达清楚，理论上都是对的。选择适合自己的，才是最好的。欢迎大家学习中文，相信你们一定可以成功的！
