- Please help! Hello, I am moving to the CR and am having trouble getting information from the Czech Consulate, so I need to write a letter to the MOI (which only accepts documents in Czech). If somebody could go through this translation and improve it you would make my week! I really don't want to screw up in front of them :P ---------------------------------------- Dobrý den, Prosím, pospěš si moje žádost. Čekal jsem více než 60 dní a méně než 90 let, než jsem se dozvěděl z konzulátu v Los Angeles. První lhůta uplynula, další na konci tohoto měsíce. Konzulát v Los Angeles říká, že zpracovali a poslali mé dokumenty ministerstvu zahraničí, ale dosud nedostali odpověď od MOI. Nikdo mi neřekl, že se vyskytly nějaké chyby, nebo bych měl poslat další doklady nebo se na konzulátu dostavil. Konzulát nereagoval na mé e-maily o zprávách nebo schůzkách tento týden. Nemůžu jim zavolat. Mohl bych přijít o práci, pokud čekací doba trvá mnohem déle. Prosím, řekněte mi, jak vám to pomůže. ID aplikace je: XXXXXXXXX Jméno: Katelyn Děkuji! -KatelynNovember 9, 201740
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to inform you that I received a different product from what I had ordered on your website.
On Tuesday 2nd November, I placed an order on your website for a size-large Giorgio Armani men’s leather coat whose product code is LC528. Not able to find this particular size in any Giorgio Armani outlets in Tehran, I was really happy to have finally found it on your website.
The following day, the coat was delivered to my house. When I opened the parcel, I was surprised to discover that not only was the coat not size large, but also was wholly different from its photos displayed in your online catalog. I purchased this particular coat for a leader-themed party that I was invited to on Friday, and because of this mistake I could not attend the party.
As this error was caused by your company, and I have no use for the coat now, I would like to cancel my purchase and request for a full refund. Also, please contact me and provide with some guidance information on how I should return the coat.
I look forward to receiving a prompt reply.
Yours faithfully,
Adib Yz-----------
The letter is written well! The three questions were not grammatically correct. Did I highlight things in the right section? It was a bit hard to tell which part you wanted to have us go over.

Hello! I have made a new study tool for Czech cases, because I couldn't find one. The words in the generator are from a few different English language frequency lists.
https://languageproject2017.firebaseapp.com/
Vocative case and verbs are coming soon, as well as a contact form (in the meantime, hit me up here if you have suggestions!)
I will be adding more languages once Czech is thoroughly fleshed out.
Peace!

October 12, 201730 - Kleine Geschriebung Hallo. Es hat eine Weile gedauert, seit ich Deutsch geschrieben habe, also 'fair warning' :) Und...jetzt habe ich writer's block. So. Ich wohne im Nordkalifornien, im Walden. Hier ist es warm und trocken, aber nicht so trocken als im Nevada (und auch haben wir nicht so viele Tarantulas). Gestern war ich nach Reno gefahren, und wir haben ein Tarantula auf die Autobahn gesehen, es war groß wie einen Faust und braun. Auch gab es ein Auto-Rennen (car race) in der nähe von Virginia City, alte Ferraris und Porsches und was noch. Ich war zu spät dazugekommen, um es zu sehen, aber wir hatten in einem Pub getrunken, Fireballs und Bourbon (und auch Pizza, yumm). Es gab Männer und Frauen, die kleidung wie im 1800s getragen hatten. Eine von ihnen hat sehr schwer versucht, mir einen Hut zu verkaufen. Aber es kostet rund $100 und ich will kein Cowboy Hut tragen, auf irgendeiner Fall. Also ja, das war mein Samstag. Ciao!September 18, 201721
IELTS Writing Practice: The positive and the negative sides of globalization
Hi, this is a writing practice for IELTS, the topic is "The positive and the negative sides of globalization".
Any help will be appreciated!
---------------------------------------------
Over the past several decades, without any doubt, the globalization is one of the most significant processes that/which has been taking place,. which It? deeply affects a large scale of population worldwide and deeply. In the meantime, the controversies over this phenomenon and whether it is a blessing or a curse continue.
It is inevitable that some adverse effects are brought by this great process. Due to the drastically increasing demands of various industrial products, massive numbers of factories were established to meet the market’s needs, some of which have caused heavy pollutions to the environment. An example is electricity. An indispensable energy source to support the industry, it is mainly generated from fossil fuels, especially the burning of coal, which not only emits greenhouse gases but also contaminates the air. According to the research, an increasing number of health issues are caused by inhaling polluted air.
However, the defects mentioned above will be solved with the improvements in renewable energy. Soon (maybe add your 'apparently' qualifier to this sentence instead) a large proportion of energy will be converted from solar and wind. Apparently, (Since) they are free and eternal, both the environment and economy will benefit from them.
Besides that, because of globalization, the peace of the world will become more stable than ever before. Through deeply cooperation in various aspects, such as technology and economy, these involved countries have established a tight relationship with each other, which lead to the impossibility of starting a war amongst them. In some places, like the Middle MidEast, a proportion of people still cannot enjoy a peaceful life. According to the research, these areas are less developed or are isolated from the globalization, which contributes to the turbulence in these societies.
To conclude, although some side effects cannot be totally avoided, the significant benefits are far more important for the human civilization. In my opinion, we should put more attention towards solving the issues brought by development rather than deny the improvements offered by the globalization that we have achieved.
Don't ask why I removed 'the' from every place and then added it back in front of Globalization at the end. I thought about it and I don't know what the difference is. Something to do with globalization referring to the 'effect of' and globalization referring to a quantity seems to make a difference.0 votedJune 5, 20173Just a thought (and this might be just me or something) but 'become' is kind of formal for everyday speech.
For example the stuff on the left is what I would say instead of the stuff on the right:
I'm gonna be (going to be) a doctor = I will become a doctor
I'm getting bored = I'm becoming bored
I'm hungry = I have become hungry
We've gotten pretty close lately = we're becoming friends
I can't think of when I would say 'become' in a sentence, unless I was being deliberately dramatic just for laughs.
