Hello to italki community. I'm Adam..living in Versailles kentucky in the United States. I work in a kitchen managing inmates at the county jail where I live and I love learning languages. I can't rightly explain why but I have a fascination with culture and ppl.. I have been learning Spanish for a while now on duolingo with apps like anki and memrise. what I would like to gain from this community is fluency and accuracy..putting all that grammar and vocab to pratical use.

    I tend to think of "have got to" as being more more pressing or within a time restraint..as in "I have got to do this now"..or "we have got to go now!" While "have to" is more relaxed.. As in "sorry but I have to go..see you later!" or "I'll see you later I have to run some errands" more often than not in written and spoken English you'll see a contraction of "I" and "have" into "I've".."I've got to"..but never"I've to"

    Yes it's mainly used in American southeast as a negative as in " is not " or " has not" or " will not" vivo en Kentucky donde "ain't" es muy common. Aqui lo useó a un negativo por los modos distintos. Lo siento. mi espanol no es Bueno. Pero espero que estas ayuda a usted.

    This can be tricky but think of it this way...things that are fairly different have more in common than things that are quite different, and vice versa...quite different has less in common than fairly different. Faiy has looser connections than quite..hope this helps.

    Hello Tam1993. Here are some changes I would make. #1. "a university student majoring in teaching English to primary students." #2.only change "Vietnam is no exception" otherwise this sentence is technically correct. It sounds too forceful to say Vietnam is not an exception and doesn't quite match the informal tone of the rest of the sentence. #3. "Some teachers were trained to teach languages other/rather than English." No need to have other and rather in the same sentence. #4."Among the many changes that this project has set out to achieve, there is one objective related to primary English education, which is that english will be a compulsory subject from grade 3 at primary through 12th grade in high school in a new ten year program...hope this helps but is also subject to changes based on broader contexts..

    Both are fine but slightly irregular to my native ear. For both of these sentences it sounds better to just say " John/he/she/it has yet to receive acceptance to any graduate school." the total meaning will still be conveyed, so no information will be lost, but this grammar construct sounds more correct to my ear.
