    In Chinese, we don't have clause, so we also don't have relative word. In this question, the answer is no answer. 我認為我們應該去那裏。 see. It doesn't have any gap could put THAT in Chinese.

    你们国家是怎样保护环境的?

    Here is a presentation I have to give:
    魁北克在位於寒带位于。有各种(樹)林,江(河)和湖(泊)。魁北克人一向用木头建设房子(?1)。因为魁北克很寒冷不热,所以人也用柴火取暖木头暖气。在魁北克,林业是一个很重要的工业,。然而健全的经济需要牺牲。现在,很多树被砍倒了。在19世纪,魁北克没有污染,。可是,现代的環境完全不如從前乾淨是别的事儿。,因此魁北克的政府决定了保护环境。可是,跟加拿大的政府有困难──。他们抛弃了京都议定书。雖然這些政治與經濟情况很复杂,。但從个人作改變用是我们的最好的选择。我们应该思考怎么如何亲自作保护环境。

     

    To tell the truth, your Chinese is pretty good, but still have some mistakes, epecially unclear meaning. Furthermore, you need to note your usage of puctiation.

    Generally, the sentences between stop talk about same things, but you use more stop to cut your sentences.

    I will explain the detail below. in order to easy to type, I will use Chinese to explain. If you do not know the meaning, please feel free to ask me.

    通常我們會用「位於...」,例如位於台灣、位於加拿大等。

    林、江和胡,基本上沒有錯,只是為增加文字重量,我們習慣用兩個字組成一個詞,但是需注意的是「江」,江是很大的河唷,如果你是指溪流,那可能之後要注意用字的精確性。

    (?1)這句話有點唐突,「魁北克人一向用木頭建房子」但是後面又接了「因為...」,下意識會認為「因為...」接的是為何用木頭建房子的原因,但實際上不是。而且為什麼用木頭建房子沒有解釋,單獨出現那一句有點怪,所以你可以說「因為魁北克有大片森林,所以魁北克人一向用木頭建房子,又因為魁北克很寒冷,所以我們也用木柴生火取暖」。

    不熱,其實多指溫度適中,例如在臺灣,我們會說秋天天氣不熱,但其實溫度才20度C,這並不需要開暖氣吧!所以如果用「不熱」,語意上會不通喔。

    木頭暖氣,這個詞容易搞混,是木頭做的暖氣嗎?我們有(陶瓷式、鹵素、葉片式)電暖器、煤油暖氣,但是沒有木頭暖氣喔,所以你可以說「柴火式暖氣」,或詳加解釋「用木柴生火取暖」

    現代是別的事,我猜你想表達的是「現在完全不是那一回事(樣子)」,其實這句很口語,不建議用於文章。而且你也用了「事兒」,在文章中我們鮮少用「兒」,尤其是在正式文章,除了非正式文章或新詩,可能會用花兒。但或許中國常用這兒化音,但個人不是很喜歡彆扭的兒化音。

    情況很複雜,你需要加強描述是什麼樣的情況。

    個人做是最好的選擇,語意不太清楚,做什麼需要加以形容,通常我們會說「做改變」。另外「從」有自源頭開始的意思。

    怎麼,這也是有點口語,不適合用在正式寫作,可以用「如何」替代。

     

    其實我改得比較嚴格,但並非你寫得不好。原則上你的文章已掌握架構,可加強讓語意更清楚。

    命,是指性命 不要命了,意指性命都不要了,或者不想活了 用於危險的事情,而他人相勸時。 例如:那個地方現在發生暴亂,你還想去旅遊,不要命了阿? 意指那個地方很危險,你還要去,你難道不想活了嗎

    我覺得"管"的意思應該是"向"或"跟"。 我也沒想跟我爸媽要。 但是在台灣不們不會用"管",這是中國的慣用語吧。

    昨完我遇到一個男人,他一副盛氣凌人的樣子走來。 他始終無法交到男朋友,因為她總是擺出一副不可一世的態度。 (you also could say 因為她有公主病 informally) 盛氣凌人 不可一世 氣勢凌人 傲氣 驕傲自負 ...and so on

    我开始学习汉语!

    你好!
    我叫Gerald. 我现在没有(中文)汉语名字!我(今年)二十岁。我,在华威大学(英国)学习工程和汉语在华威大学(英国)。现在我会说一点儿汉语。 ,我要想學会说多点儿汉语!
    说跟你我很高兴(你的意思是?)!

    再见!

     

    Great! it doesen't have any serious mistake.

    you could learn some words to replace another words.

    for example, 漢語 could be replaced by 中文、華文.

    furthermore, we would not used to add 兒 in the sentence.

    to tell the truth, only 北京 accent have an obvious sound of 兒 (兒化音)

     

     

    maybe we could help each others to improve speaking.

    please feel free to contact me.

    我認為華語的變化千百種

     

    就像我第一次遇到馬來西亞的華人朋友。我問他們「你知道XXX」他們回答「不懂」

    在台灣,我會覺得他想表達的是「聽不懂我在說什麼」,但其實他們的意思是「不知道」

     

    又如同在中國說「土豆」,在台灣我以為是指花生,後來才知道原來那是馬鈴薯

     

    但有些詞的本意其實就不是那麼禮貌

     

    再加上我覺得華文是很重視禮貌的一種語言,畢竟「舊」稱中國為禮儀之邦(我覺得這又是另一段文化浩劫的故事了)

    如何表達禮貌是在教外國人時一門很重要的課程,禮多人不怪嘛
