    Thank you both for your help. I have been learning nearticulat and articulat, and the forms you gave me tell me this must be a neuter noun. Thanks!

    Both of these sentences are fine, except you need to capitalize English. When you are asking for something from somebody else, "I would like" is more refined than "I want," but in the context of something you want to do, rather than something you are asking for, the two versions are equally good.

    I assume you want corrections and aren't really using this forum to get a placement. :-)

    Hi,
    My name's Aleksandra and I'm from Poland. In 3 weeks I will come back to London, and I'm looking for some lovely children to take care of them. I worked as an fille au-pair many times in France and it always was an enriching experience. I took care of children aged from 1 to 9 so I know how to take care of both little toddlers and major child older children:) As I came into contact with quiet children and the more 'lively' ones, and I know how to menage manage with children in complex and at times difficult situations. I'm always patient and calm. I also try to colaborate with parents. Does it mean: When child feels alone because it's its (it's is a contraction for it is, but its is the possessive you want)parents are busy and don't have enought time for family's life, I try to ensure assure a child that they love her and that it she is the most important thing in their lives. I understand very well that sometimes parents cannot spend enought time with their children, not beacuse because they don't want to but because they must working-hard to ensure them a bright future.
    I'm a very an open minded person. I have empathy for others and everobody everybody gets on well with me :)

    You can ask, why do I like this job? Well, I would also like to have plenty of children and this job will prepare me really well to for my 'future profession': how to be a good mother. :)

    Thank you for your attention and I await your message :)
    Aleksandra

    Nancy's first day to of elementary school

    My lovely daughter, Nancy, starting to go started elementary school from on Sep, Sept. 1. The school arranged a welcome party for the new coming students, and tearchers are were all in clothes of flight attendant clothes. It's quite interesting and meaningful, because there is a F5E fighter aircraft in the school.  The F5E symbolizes that and it means everyone have has dreams and have has to fight for it them. So every student is the a passenger on the F5E and will fight for their life dreams. Go, Go, Go!

     

    The expression "fight for their life" means they are threatened by something (like evildoers or deadly sickness) and are actually fighting to stay alive.  I think what you mean is that they will fight to make their dreams come true or fight for a successful life.

    i love basseball

    hi people, i want learn english, i love basseball, i was pitcher in a academy the baseball, want someone help me learn english and chat sometimes...

     

    I love baseball! Hi people. I want to learn English.  I love baseball, and I was a pitcher in a baseball academy.  I want someone to help me learn English and chat sometimes.

     

    So let me make a few comments.  "I" is always capitalized.  You also want to use sentences, ending in a "." rather than running several ideas together with commas. Commas are really only for lists of for separating two clauses that each have a subject and verb.  As to chatting, people on italki are great at giving corrections!

    Holidays

    the The mMexican celebration of the independence is close, and . And we are going to supposed to scream, "viva Mexico!" I think it's like Long Live Mexico!, The celebration started  starts on sSeptember 15 at midnight, with the traditional scream of each local president in each city of Mexico, includes  including the president of all the republic, where he who screams, about "long live Miguel Hidalgo, Long Live Our Heroes," and also screams mostly the names of the people who participated in the movement of 1810. And the celebration finished finishes (or ends) on s September 16 with an army desfile parade, well I don't know but when all the army marches in each town, showing their uniforms.
    I believe this year, the celebration will be long, with the beginning on sSeptember 13,14,15,16, (you should only list the beginning date), and in some states like cChiapas, they are going to celebrate the annexation of Chiapas to Mexico.
    This state was part of the kingdom of Guatelama during the Spanish colony, but later it become a territory in dispute with the new nation of Mexico and Guatemala. , fFinally they decided to become part of Mexico.

     

    A few general corrections:  places, proper names, months, and days of the week should always be capitalized in English, as should the first letter in a sentence.  You used some past tense where future tense is required.  The other thing I see here is that you have what we call run-on sentences.  These are sentences with too many subjects and objects in one sentence without enough punctuation.

    The easiest part of your question is to contrast the first two with the third. You would generally use "anymore" or "any longer" after using a negative form of a verb, whereas you would use "no longer" with a positive form of a verb. Here are examples: I do not believe that politician anymore. I do not believe that politician any longer. I believe that politician no more. The first two versions would be more common than the third, and "no more" is a stronger rejection of what used to be. As to the difference between anymore and any longer, you will hear anymore in the US and Canada more, but any longer would be more common in Great Britain. They have the same meaning, but "any longer" is a bit more formal.

    In English, we say, "Who can explain English to me?" Because "me" is the object, you need to precede it with "to". Also the object usually follows everything else, hence "explain English to me," rather than "explain to me English."
