와! 영어 쓰기가 어렵지요? 그런데 당신이 잘했어요! 수고하세요!0 votedSeptember 10, 20151- 주말 CGV에서 한국영화를 봤다 일요일 밤에 엘에이 CGV에서 쎄시봉을 봤어요. 그 건 괜찮았어요. 뮤지션 이야기 재미 있었어요. 아, 그리고, 메트로역에도 팀조형님를 봤어요???! 몰라!!! 그래도 너무 멋지다. 아무 그 사람은 팀조를 꼭 닮았어요... 우와 쌍둥이! Sunday night, I saw "쎄시봉/C'est Si Bon" at LA CGV. It was fine. The musician story was interesting. Ah, and, at the Metro Station also, I saw Tim Jo? I don't know!!! Even still, very cool. Maybe the person looks exactly like him? Wow twins!February 17, 201510
<em>Thank you !!! You're very kind. But I have a question. She has read Harry Poter for two months. -> Why it means she is still reading?? If I make it means still reading, I wrote it 'She has been reading Harry Poter for two months' ??</em>
1.) She has read Harry Potter for two months. --> This means that she has been [1] reading Harry Potter, [2] finished the book, and for some reason [3] started reading it again (for two months.) Do you know the English expression "to do something off and on again for ___ months/years"? It is like that. Because you said "has READ" (read is in past tense) it means that: yes, she <em>may</em> have finished the book once (in two months) but she chose to STILL read it (again) in those two months.
I hope that helps. I know it is confusing. Sometimes, even native English speakers sturggle with the Present Perfect!
To fix this sentence, just take out the "two months."
She has read Harry Potter. -> (She did this in the past, but we need to NOW, because it affects us now.)If you REALLY want to say how long AGO she read it: She read Harry Potter two months ago. (Just use past tense "read" with # + months/days/years + ago.)
2.) She has been reading Harry Potter for two months. --> You are correct! This is the right way to say she is still reading. (because read + -ing)
HOWEVER, sometimes even Native speakers do not catch the tense and when we hear "has + read/reading" (because it is in present perfect) we just think it is still happening. In conversation it basically means this activity is still happening today.
So in Sentence 1, she chooses to still read it. In Sentence 2, she never finished but is still trying to finish the book.

Hello !
Nowdays, I have been studying the expression 'have present perfect'. present perfect tense.
There was not the expression 'have p.p', so I was confused at that expression.I am going to write down for some examples.
Could you correcting correct these, please :)
1. I have visited in Singapore for one time.
2. I have lived in Seoul ever since 1987. <em><--- PERFECT!</em>
3. She has read Harry Poter for two months. <em><--- This means she is STILL reading it.</em>
4. My parents have eaten breakfast everyday every day. <--- This is okay, but a little strange to say.
A better sentence is "My parents have eaten <em>toast for breakfast</em> every day." [My parents have eaten (WRITE FOOD NAME HERE) for breakfast every day.]
5. He has written a diary since for three years ago. <-- In present perfect tense, it started in the past and continues today (a habit). If you say since/ago... as these two words are slightly different in meaning, would mean that he does still do this or, even, that he has stopped!
*I hope you can understand me. Let me know if you have any other questions!*0 votedFebruary 8, 20153Busy Saturday
I Wake woke up late...
Then, I Chased up ran around all day my wife's order all day from shopping.
This (그 건) was my wife's orders! (orders = request/부탁)
In English, we say "ran around all day" meaning "I was busy doing _______." Not chased.
Also, when you are talking about yourself, you MUST say I (나는/내가) every time (언제나!) This is not like Korean! Just remember :)
한국말: (나는/내가) <em><--- 필요 없어요</em> 늦게 일어나요.
영어: I <--- <em>항상 필요 있어요!</em> woke up late.
그래도, 잘 했어요! :)0 votedFebruary 7, 20151I want to make many foreign friends.
I'm from South Korea. My hometown is really in the countryside, so I had not met any foreigners before I entered into my university. My university is located in Seoul. and The place near my university, Sinchon, is very famous for among various the youth for various activities. cultures. At night, the roads is are filled with many artists such as musicians, dancers and clowns.
Among them, there were are some foreigners. The first man who I saw was a guitar player. I don't know well about where did he come came from. But, it was just amazing to see a foreigner even playing guitar. After that, I began to have a interest in other cultures and people of various coutries. Day by day, Every day I could have the chance to see many foreigners. So, my interest about their cultures was is getting bigger. I always want to make many foreign friends!
*In English, when we say the phrase "<em>잘 몰라 </em>" the 잘 usually translates to "much", if we are talking about our knowledge of something, not "well"--- so a more natural way to talk about the foreign guitar player would be "I don't know much about where he came from."
When we use well, it is usually in a phrase like "I don't know ( ) well."
Still great job! I can undertand what you are trying to say! So that is most important!0 votedFebruary 7, 20151
