Ali hizo un gran trabajo comunicándose en español. Está comenzando con el aprendizaje del idioma, y la verdad pudimos tener una conversación super divertida. Sigue así :) ¡Nos vemos en otra ocasión!

彼女は発音がとても綺麗なので、つい日本語でたくさん話してしまいました＾＾；　基礎はすでに勉強していらっしゃるので、語彙を増やせば、すぐに上達すると思います＾＾

    Mi introducción ¡Hola a todos! Soy Ali de Estados Unidos. He estado estudiando español por menos de dos meses. Actualmente voy a clase presencial una vez a la semana por dos horas. No es suficiente así que también estudio solo. Uso italki porque quiero practicar hablar más. Pero yo soy muy tímida sobre hablar. Por suerte he conocido algún personas simpáticos y voy a hablar con ellos pronto. Mi español no es muy bueno. Es bien, pero me gustaría escribir sin uso un diccionario. ¡Necesito más practicar! Quería escribir más ahora pero esto tomó mucho tiempo jaja. Por favor, corregirme si tiene tiempo. ¡Gracias!

    My first post! )

    So, I have a problems with my writing and understanding English tenses! =)
    That means that I need more practices! (should be singular)

    And by tradition.... my usualy morning description! :) ("And by tradition" isn't wrong, but it doesn't sound natural in this context.)

    I'm an evening person, but my kids are early birds, and that's very painful. I have need It takes enormous efforts to wake up and start cooking oatmeal for my kids' breakfast. And it's better don't try best not to wake up my wife; it's can that could be extremely dangerous to my health =) (Or maybe you could say, "It's best not to wake up your wife; that could be extremely bad for your health!")

    After my kids finish their breakfast, it's time for tidying up because they eat like little piggies.
    Around this time my wife has been woken will wake up and begin to cooking breakfast for us because making oatmeal it's all I can do is the only thing I can cook. :D

    Humor can be hard to portray in a second language, but I think you did a great job! Good entry :)

    I'm new on italki.

    I think a good way to start on italki is to write about myself and introduce myself. My name is Carlos Quezada. I'm from El Salvador. This country is very beautiful. Maybe some of you have heard bad things about my country, but there are many good, interesting,  and beautiful things here. I invite you to visit my country and you could improve your Spanish.

    Well, onto me. I'm 24 years old and I'm a civil engineer. Currently, I'm working on a project about the extension of our international airport, "Moseñor Oscar Arnulfo Romero y Galdamez." It's an interesting project and a great opportunity to increase my professional experience. I have been studying English for a few months, but my job makes it hard to go to a language academy. That's why I'm here on italki. I think that italki is a good tool to share experiences and improve a second language.


    I hope to write and take classes to improve my skills in English. Tour corrections and advice will be very important to reach my goals.


    Some notes:

    * Languages are always capitalized in English.

    * Some spelling errors were repeated - "language" (not lenguage) and "interesting" (not intresting).

    * Study the difference between "to" and "for." For example, the phrase is "...important to reach my goals," not "...important for reach my goals." 

    * Overall, nice work! Everything was clear and easy to understand. Your mistakes were small.

    Hi Echo! Thanks for sharing more about the Chinese New Year. I grew up in Hawai'i and I remember a lot of celebrations surrounding the Chinese New Year. Something about feeding dragons money? I always loved it as a kid!

    When I was in Manchester (2)

    and... The employee told us that the hostel was full. He said that we should wait till 9am or 10 because maybe some rooms might be empty. So we waited in a coffee shop.

    Finally we got a bed but it was in a room with about twenty two other people. persons more or less. We had achieved our first goal, a place for sleep. Now we needed to find an apartment and jobs.

    We spent every day walking around the city trying to find jobs and an apartment. In the first week we found an apartment near of the city center. It was perfect!! A few days later, we found jobs in a pub. The interview was at the night at the pub and later we drank a bottle of white wine lol. But this was good for me because my English was not good. Thanks to the wine, my english was better (or so I thought) because I had no shame.

    Finally we got the work. In the pub, the tips were really good and I could live with this job.

    I was there for three months more or less. I had good friends there and when I had to return to Spain I was really sad. It was a really good experience for me and I will always be grateful to the people that helped me there.

    What an adventure! I wish I was brave enough to do something like this. I enjoyed this story, Gnomo.

    Yes! These are both grammatically correct sentences. "Whenever" and "wherever" can be used in the same way because they are the same part of speech. However, these two sentences do have different meanings. The first sentence means that you can travel at any time you want to. The second sentence means you can travel to any place you want to. I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    What are some popular Thai movies or TV shows? I am just learning Thai and would like to watch some famous Thai movies or TV shows. I will need subtitles as well, but I hope that listening to Thai will help with my pronunciation. Plus, it will be fun!
