- Funny story, and very well written! Just note that if something happened, it happened between "me and my cat," not "my cat and I." English speakers will debate that, but if you can't say the sentence without the other person (or animal) it normally doesn't work. For example, "Something happened between 'I' last night," will sound strange to most native English speakers. That is your hint that the correct word is "me." So, "something happened between me and my cat last night."0 votedJune 14, 20231
- The full quote is "a jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." "Trade" in this context is your "Tradecraft": Carpenter, Mason, Plumber, Mechanic, Engineer, Doctor, etc. A "handy man" refers to a craftsman that is good with multiple construction tradecrafts. They can accomplish many things in home and buildings. They would be a Jack of All Trades, in that context. For your dad, it would work to say, "My dad is a Jack of all Trades. He knows a little about electricity, plumbing, and welding, but he doesn't specialize in any of them.0 votedJune 14, 20230
- From a casual perspective, if you're referring to one group among many (if four different countries are in a convention, for example), "The English" would imply you're referring to the people from the England. Otherwise, I'd rephrase your question to just refer to the country: Do they drink tea or coffee for breakfast in England? "The" would be used to isolate. If an American tourist was in England, it would be common for people to refer to him or her as "The American sitting over there..."0 votedJune 14, 20231

0 votedApril 9, 20182- Exhibicíon del Arte de Edgar Degas Fui al Museo de Arte de Denver, Colorado, el sábado pasado. Tenían una exhibicíon del arte de Edgar Degas. Edgar Degas le gusta pintar caballos, bailarinas, y damas en la bañera. Dijo que le gustaba pintar mujeres por sus ropa hermosa. Pero sospecho que él tuvo otras razones. ;) El mayor trabajo de Degas fue hecho cuando su vista estaba fallando. Él comenzó a usar las manos y los dedos para pintar. Esas pinturas eran más grandes y eran muy impresionantes.
April 9, 201820 HELP. INTRODUCTION OF MY INTERNSHIP 2
The environment of my class was very good, children used to help others in each other with everything they needed (i.g. e.g. opening a juice, putting the their coat on, and so on), they were keen students, t. They were motivated, because the teacher taught them to think and reflect for themselves, also they participated actively in all the activities or tasks. It was a calm class, but they were very chatty, so we have to had to stand out constantly. One child used to make a scene every time in class and she used to hit other children, but there was not any punishment to for her behaviour, t. The teacher invited to the child to think about what she had done and think about how it would feel if other another child had done the same to her.
Regarding to my english classes, there were a few (were only a few students?) because, it would like to have more english classes, but it was not so important if they don´t do english, because they always have to do another things for the school. Precisely, w We have done a lot of things during my intership not related so much with english as Harry Potter (due to the reading day of this year “Santa Ana School of Wizard and Witchcraf”), animal´s farm, aquarium and the pirate island.###
You are connecting ideas very well! Be careful of "run-on sentences." Also, in English it's helpful to be more specific with the subject of the sentence. The last paragraph is not clear, for example, because the reader doesn't know who/what the subject is: you, students, the program...?
Excellent writing, Irene!
0 votedApril 8, 20180Good morning, everybody! (Subtle suggestion, "everyone" seems a little more natural here...like the difference between aquí y ahí. "Good morning, everybody" estás en la sala con ellos. "Good morning everyone" hay mas personas, es mas general. Both work though!)
Today it's a cloudy day. (Suggestion: "It's a cloudy day today," o "Today is a cloudy day.") I'm going to take advantage to of this and do somethings in on the computer. I want to finish a music analysis that I have pending and, maybe, if I still have some ¿enegy/power/desire? ("maybe if I'm still feeling up to it" colloquial, or "maybe if I've still got motivation/energy"), I'm going to read a little of on/about a new topic that I started to use ("run across," colloquial) last week in my job.
Have a nice Sunday!###
It's more common to say, "Have a nice day!," o "Enjoy your Sunday!"
Great work, Jonas!
0 votedApril 8, 20182Ana, en inglés las palabras "long distance relationship" son específicas. They are colloquial now.
¿Crees que hay una frase equivalente para eso en español?
"Una relación a larga" suena como una traducción exacta...a literal translation and not a colloquial equivalent.
What do you think?
