    I am 86 and perhaps not up to my game Hello everyone,

    Today I read a article on BBC web page about a compelling letter wroten by Ebay buyer. (see more on "https://www.bbc.com/news/world-47277608".

    So in this letter his author wrote the sentence "I am 86 and perhaps not up to my game but I do get there eventually".

    I search on dictionaries and found nothing about the meaning of this expression "up to my game". 

    Anyone could please shed some light on this question for me? 

    The correction of this text will be very appreciated to as I don't write very often in English (never really). 

    Thanks

    Olá, São duas as opções: 1) Tatu-bola, tatuapara ou tatu-bolinha é o mesmo anímel indicado em inglés como 'armadillo". 2) Por outro lado existe um crustáceo terrestre que vive em jardins com esse mesmo nome. Essa é o sentido de uma música infantil do Palavra Cantada.

    Escrever

    Desde quando era criança, gostava de escrever. Gosto de ter o tempo para decidir o que eu realmente quero dizer e encontar as palavras certas palavras  para usar.

    Mas o problema é que, até mesmo quando tenho o tempo, jamais sei o que escrever.

    Queria que eu fosse o tipo de pessoa que sempre tivesse algo importante e interessante dizer, e que poderia apenas comecar escrevendo assim. Mas infelizmente, a vida raramente é tão simples.

    Quando escrevo é como uma batalha, entre mim e a página em branco. Sempre fico esperando uma onda de Inspiração, mas ela não chega.

    Mas, me entenda, não estou falando que, porque é dificil, que escrever não vale a pena. Frequentemente, as coisas valiosas não são as mais fáceis. Sinto grande orgulho quando completo  consigo screver algo e isso é importante.

    Sempre é facil ficar com preguiça, mas assim, não cumprirá nada. Então vou continuar a tentar.

    Acho que meu escrito  minha escrita em português é uma bagunça, então se você leu até aqui, muito obrigado!

    Podcasts (French and Spanish)

    Hello Everybody,

    Can anyone suggest  me  good podcasts in French and Spanish? I am very interested in history, culture, movies, books and music. When I started my English learning a few years ago I found a really good podcast with all these subjects. It was ESL Pod, by Jeff Macquillan. He do a  very good work with cultural notes, history, and so on. I also like BBC stuff. It's harder to a native get but . So if you have a good tip for a podcast in French and Spanish I will really appreciate. 

    Thanks,

    Erich

    Eleanor and Park So I want learn English mainly to read literature. I think that books based on essays or research, on topics like Phycology or Management are easier than Literature. Maybe because they use more terms from Latin and how I speak Portuguese (a romance language), well, some words are quite recognizable. But literature with a history, a plot, turns a bit difficult. There is a lot of substantives and verbs related with actions of the body. So I am beginning with a young age history "Eleanor and Park". Park is an Asian boy. His mother is Korean. Eleanor, according with my understanding of the book, is a little overweight girl with red hair, weird clothes and a lot of problems at home. Her family is very poor and her stepfather isn't a good father to her. Eleanor also is bullied by her colleagues at school. Both take the same bus to school and slowly they are turning friends despite the differences between them.
