    A littele bit about me

    Hi there! My name is Claudia, I'm 22 and I'm leaving  living in Romania. I'm also half Turkish. I was born in Romania in a small town close to Bucharest. For the My first part of my childhood, I grew up in Istanbul, where I attended (started studying at) elementary school.After that I moved to up in Romania with my/the whole family.Mind you,  I grew up in a multicultural family so I chose to study foreign languages at university. I think the easiest way to learn a new language is speaking it  talking all the time that language. If you don't practice speaking  to talk in that/the language you never become a fluent speaker. So that is why I'm here. I want to become a fluent and more confident with my /regarding my knowledge in the matter of foreign languages.

    Self-introduction - help needed Hi everyone, I've just started learning Serbian and I need you help. Could anyone translate the text below, please; I want to use it to get a glimpse of the language structure and also learn it by heart to give me a startting point, something to talk about. If you can write it in Cyrillic, that would be great. Many thanks in advance! ------------------- Hello/Hi, Let me introduce myself. My name is Lorelai and I am 33 years old. I’m from Bucharest, Romania. I have been living in Bucharest for 15 years but I was born and grew up in a smaller town, near Bucharest. I love big cities because they are places full of life and interesting things to do. I work as a project manager for an IT company and I really like my job because it can never be boring. Apart from work, I enjoy learning foreign languages and I’ve just started learning Serbian. I can also speak Romanian, my native tongue, English, Spanish and French. I also love reading and ballroom dancing.

    For Spanish as a foreign language, the exams the enjoys best recognition (at least in Europe) are DELE (Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera) exams, administered by the Cervantes Institute and the University of Salamanca. You have a lot of choice in terms of where to take one of these in the UK: http://londres.cervantes.es/en/courses_spanish/students_spanish/dele_diplomas_info/uk_centres.htm. Some more information about the exams: http://diplomas.cervantes.es/en/information/dele_description.html I don´t know a lot about Russian exams/certificates but you might be able to find out more from this page: http://www.russian-test.com/eng/index - they are members of ALTE (Association of Languages Testers in Europe).

    I want to learn English for...

    I started a lot of English online courses, but I'm not consistent, and I finish abandon/drop them to mid course.
    Now, I purpose decided to  start seriously to writing every day in English. I have a very basic knowledge of English, and a lot of vocabulary, but I'm very very, bad with grammar, past, present, future, etc. I need the keys to understanding the fundamentals and connecting this vocabulary.
    The online courses bored me, and I think that to writing a diary or short texts every day, helps me to make this learning much more consistent.

    I'm a graphic designer and illustrator, and I have to write some days in English with to clients, and this/it is a horrible task for me... I'm bored of using Google translate, and of to knowing that the result is not good. Bored of spending a lot of time to writing some paragraphs because I don't dominate master the grammar, and I have to constantly go/refer to the translator to correct my errors...

    I think that if I write my experiences every day, maybe I can improve my written English.

    I'm actually not familiar with the content of "The New Yorker"  but if you're looking for something art-skewed you might be interested in "El malpensante" - http://elmalpensante.com/ultimaedicion 

     

    @Antonio - is there a Sunday edition of El País? I can't seen to be able to find it online.

    What does 'coprolalia' mean?

    Coprolalia or cacolalia is a pathological condition which deals with the fact means that those people who suffer from it, tend to say obscenities all the time. This makes others around (them) to feel really uncomfortable, and it's hard to control oneself.
    In most of the cases, it is patients with mental diseases or Tourette syndrome, an inherited neuropsychiatric disorder which starts during childhood and is characterized by some physical and phonic tics, who are the main victims.
    Among the latter, using nasty things, curse words and all type of phrases that can be considered inappropriate in a social area is usual.
    Generally, people shun them, so the odds are that they get cut off from job, family and many other activities with an anxious behaviour (I don't understand "with an anxious behaviour" in this phrase). But the worst is that in their own mind, these words are considered a way of playing (not sure if this is what you meant) playing yet, making it impossible for them to concentrate on anything else. Keeping this under control is complicated because it's due to a lack of right connection between brain neurotransmitters. Its origin is still unknown.
    One of the treatments is/consists in applying botulinum toxin or ,commonly named/called Botox, a toxic bacteria, close to the vocal cords, which paralyzes muscles for a while,thus avoiding this way fits.

    Thank you :)

    --- You did a fantastic job writing about a subject that required quite specialised vocabulary. Keep up the good work!
