    Learning a new language

    Learning a new language is always challenging and depending of on which is your native tongue first/native language/ mother tongue, some parts are harder than others. For example, for me the hardest part of learning Chinese is its writing system, in Japanese its grammar, in French its pronunciation and in English its vocabulary and pronunciation...

    But I believe that I am interested in those languages and if I practice then them everyday, someday I will master them!

     

    ¡Hablas muchas lenguages! Tu chino es muy bueno también.

    加油!

    First words

    Hi, guys!

    I need to practice English urgently because I need to read and speak well. I don't know about what to write here, maybe my historypast... or not.
    I like to study languages. A long time ago, I started Esperanto, Deutsch, English and Spanish. But I learned only the basics.
    My hobbies are literature, astronomy, sciences, music, etc. I love to learn the Bible too. I like sports, but I don't know to play very well. I'm brazilian but I don't like football, I prefer other sports.
    How is the culture in your country? Maybe I can to talk with you about Brazil in another moment.

    Cordially,

    Cordially is not that comonly used in English to end a letter. Usually you would say: best regards, warm regards, sincerely, etc.

     

    All the best with your English learning! You are at the right place =)

    Mi nota para el Podcast 6: La Lluvia http://www.notesinspanish.com/category/intermediate-spanish-podcast/page/5/ En este podcast, Ben Y Marina hablaban de la lluvia a Madrid. Estaba lloviendo mucho a Madrid, casi vente dos horas sin parad. A Marina, la lluvia era muy buena para los embalses (las reservas de agua) a Madrid. Pero la lluvia también producía mucho caos en la ciudad. Madrid estaba paralizada para la lluvia. Hubo muchos atascos en las calles, mucho tráfico, y más accidentes tráfico. Todo el mundo llegaba a trabaja tarde. El metro estaba casi se inundaba. Estaba muy difícil de encontrar un taxi. La vida se paraba un poco con la lluvia. Cuando Ben era profesor de inglesa, le gustaba mucho la lluvia porque no hubo estudiantes y no tenía mucho trabajo. Ben pensaba que los españoles no son acostumbrados de conducir con la lluvia. En Inglaterra llueve mucho, y la gente mantener la distancia entre los coches. Pero a Madrid, la gente conduce como en condición normal. Conduce muy rapido, y muy cerca. No son acostumbrados a la lluvia. Una cosa buena de la lluvia es que las calles se limpian, y hay menos contaminación en la ciudad. Para Ben, cuando llueve, se siente nostalgia, porque su país es muy lluvioso. Los vocabularios cerca de la lluvia: “A tope de velocidad”: al máximo de velocidad Se trata de: es cerca de Esta lloviendo un montón/a mares/ a cántaros: llueve mucho Lluvia torrencial: lluvia muy intensa y abundante Chirimiri: lluvia muy finito Llueve chuzos de punta o caen chuzos de punta: está lloviendo con mucha intensidad

    Mi nota de Podcast 5: La Familia http://www.notesinspanish.com/category/intermediate-spanish-podcast/page/5/ En este podcast, Ben Y Marina hablaban de la familia española. Hay unos estereotipos de la familia Española. Dicen que la familia española tiene muchos hijos. Esto fue verdad hace muchos años, cuando muria muchos niños. La bisabuela (la madre de la abuela) de Marina tuve dieciocho niños. Pero hoy en día, la gente en España tienen los niños muy tarde, y tienen muy pocos niños. España tiene una tasa de natalidad más baja en Europa. Otro estereotipo es que los niños viven en casa con sus padres hasta muy tarde. Mucha gente joven estudia en universidad en la misma ciudad que sus padres. Entonces vive con sus familias. Pero cuando se casan, se van de la casa. Finalmente, la familia extendida española es muy unida. Marina ve a sus tíos y tías frecuentemente. Y cuando era niña, jugaba con sus primos todo el tiempo. Marina y Ben tuve una fiesta de la familia la víspera. Fue el cumpleaños de la tía de Marina. Hay mucha gente y muchas comidas. Ben tuve un supuesto. Normalmente en España, entre chica-chica o chica-chico, se dan dos besos, un en cada mejilla. Raramente los hombres se dan los besos. Pero el primo de Marina dio dos besos a Ben cuando le encontraba. Marina dice que entre los miembros muy cercas de la familia, se dan los besos también entre los hombres. Vocabularios útiles: Tu cuñada(o) es la hermana(o) de tu esposa. Tu suegra(o) es la madre (el padre) de tu esposa. Tu nueva (yerno) es la mujer de tu hijo (el marido de tu hija). ¡Es muy complicado!

    whether Whether allowing working at home is good

    Nowadays, an increasing number of employers employees (employers employ employees =) are permitted to work without going to their offices. (remember to put a spacing after the punctuations)At the same time,whether it is beneficial to companies and individuls has been a hot debated topic (either "hot topic" or "much debated topic") in societies (not necessary).In this eassy,I will elaborate both sides and extent my own p respective perspective.
    Considering working effciency aspects, permitting workers to finish their daily tasks may not as fast as in offices (workers may not finish their tasks at home as fast as in offices),which causes numerous negative impacts to companies' profits.This is because employersees who working work at home can easily attracted be distracted by many things,such as an interesting television programme,their adorable children appearances and so on.Offices,on the other hand,provide a quiet environment for employersees to work in there so that they are capable of concentrating and completing able to concentrate and to complete their assignments much more quickerquickly (or much faster).Moreover,without the instructions given by their supervisors of companies, employersees are more likely to make a vast number of mistakes. To illustrate this point further, some employersees do not have enough experiences to deal with a task by themselves.By following the instructions of a supervisor, they can complete their tasks accurately and efficiently. Besides, many workers do not have self-restraint ability self-restraint/ self-control.Thus, working at home will make them become more and more slothful(not commonly used... usually found in literature or the bible...).
    On the positive side, it may be true that (if you say "it may be true that..." I would expect a "but" in the second part of the sentence) workers are have less pressures when working at home, because there are no restrictions and they can flexibly arrange their time to finish the tasks. In addition, commuter commuting in during rushing hours is also a servere problem for employersees, which can be avoided if they work at home. As resulted a result, they have more time to focusinge on their tasks.
    Overall, though working at home may be beneficial for minor a minority of employersees. But, I am firmly convinced that its disadvantages greatly outweigh its disadvantages. Allowing employersees to work at home not only cause impacts on affects the companies’ incomes but also makes individuals become lazier in their life.

     

    Hi August! It is great to see that you are putting a lot of effort into your writing! Keep it up!

    The flow of the article is much better than the other one that I read (about studying history). However, there are a lot more minor mistakes (spelling, singular/ plural, verb forms and tenses etc). And do remember to add a space after the punturations. This can be easily corrected with Microsoft Word or free tools online (so your readers can focus more on other things in your essay =)

    The Brazilian Culture - part I

    The Brazilian culture is beauty Beautiful.
    We have incredible parties, such as the carnival, the São João party, and flocloric festival of Parintins the Parintins Folklore Festival (I think this is its official name in English).
    Although it has been celebrated for by babinonicys (what is "babinocicys"?) and the greeks as well, the carnaval is a better party of brazilian culture(Do you mean "the carnival is given most importance in Brasilian culture" or "the best carnival party is found in Brazil"?) . It all began whem when Black Africans were brought to Brasil and gave they started street party, Known known as Entrudo. So latter the Entrudo was conquering space between Blacks and Whites (I am not sure what you are trying to say...).Over the years, the Entrudo has been transformed into masked balls for the Carioca elite. The Carnival only took to the streets again from with the Sapucaí parades. Currently the Carnaval is celebrated between February and March, but throughout the year have there are Samba circles and balls that we call the Gafiera.

     

    Hello! I learnt a lot of interesting things about Brazil. Looking forward to Part II =)

    My hobby

    I really like photography,I think it's a way to preserve the memories of the nice time which that I have experienced. In my view,I'm good at taking photos for of landscapes rather than of people because I am not good at communicating with a person who I don‘t am not familiar with.

    When I was in high school, my parents often took me to the tourist attractions where had there were so many people. ThenThere, I would try my best to take a photo without any person. I would climb to a rock or went go to a place where tourists wouldn’t walk there so that I could find a better angle to take photos. And then,Later in the university, I learned how to fix my photos with Photoshop,which makes the photos better. During the holiday,I often hung out and took photos for of anything,: cars,architectures buildings,the sky,flowers, and so on.

    Because of this hobby,I also like travelling. I have been to most parts of China. And now I‘m not satisfied with this,I want to travel around the world to take more gorgeous pictures. It is my dream.

     

    Great picture here! May I ask where was it taken? Looking forward to more photos from you.
