Hi everyone! I'm a native French speaker from France and I'm currently in Australia. So I'm looking for improving my English skill. And originally from Vietnam, I want to improve my Vietnamese too. So let's talk!
This was our first lesson so I spent some time getting to know Tuan-Long and his unusual story! We worked on a number of different aspects of language as well as setting some homework to practice writing ahead of our next lesson.

How to make this sentence more correct in English?
Hi,
I would like to write this sentence:
"The countryside in Australia is very different from the countryside of France."
In this sentence, I repeat the word "countryside". I don't know if in English, this repetition is allowed or not. And I feel a native English speaker would express an other way. So how can I express more correctly?
Thanks for your answer.

What is correct? Coffee or Coffees
What is correct for you?
"The different type of coffee" or "The different type of coffees"?
I'm not sure if I need to put a "s" or not.
Thanks for your answers.

Some sentences to translate In Vietnamese Language
Hi! I have some sentences to translate in Vietnamese. If there is someone who can do that for it will be great!
"The apple is red.
It is John's apple.
I give John the apple.
We give him the apple.
He gives it to John.
She gives it to him.
Is the apple red?
The apples are red.
I must give it to him.
I want to give it to her.
I'm going to know tomorrow.
I have eaten the apple.
I can't eat the apple."
I know these sentences are a little bit weird. But it will help me to understand how sentences are made in Vietnamese.
Thanks for your answers.

Difference between "to start off" and "to start"
Hi!
I just discovered the verb "start off". And it has the same meaning with the verb "to begin". So my question is what is the difference between these two? When should I use "begin" and "start off"?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Hi!
There is no difference between a and an. The only thing you have to worry about is the word just after. If the word start with a consonant you put "a". If it start with a vowel, you put "an".
Examples:
"A car", "An apple"
"Car" start with a consonant "C" so I put "a". And "Apple" start with a vowel "a" so I put "an"

Salut,
La manière la plus correcte pour formuler ta phrase est : "Ca va. Mais au niveau de la quantité, il y en a beaucoup et je ne peux pas tout manger".
Et petite correction au passage : c'est "sandwich" et non "sandwith"
Voilà. :-)

Hi Chiara!
The only way I know to improve in English and in other language is to speak day one. Find someone on Italki or in real life and speak. It will be hard and you will do a lot of mistakes but it is ok. Making mistakes will improve your skill very quickly because you will remember for a long time. Just try to speak everyday and think in English (very important). ;-)
