    A very interesting story, a clever soldier =) 


    THE SOLDIER AND THE TIN BOX

    There once lived an old soldier who was very poor, every day he must earn money. One day he found an old woman dressed like a witch. Standing in a corner, the old woman called to the man and said to him: “I know that you are very poor. B, but I can help you to get rich. Just climb into that tree, and you will find three tin boxes, on which were three dogs stand. I will tie this rope to you and this blue rope to you so that you would do not get be bitten. Then all you have to do is to go to the first box, on which was a dog as big as 120 years old turtle stands, underneath him the tin box inside has some copper coins. Once you have got retrieved the copper coins, go to the second dog, which is was as big as a wolf, then you have to trade the copper coins into for the silver coins inside the second tin box. Then Take the silver coins to the third dog, which is was as big as an old horse, and trade it for some the gold coins inside that tin box.
    I will give you this stick, so that you could can throw it for the first dog to play fetch,let the first dog run away like playing fetch, so you could get and once he is gone, retrieve the copper coins. Then after trading the copper coins for silver, and the silver coins for the gold, you must call me once you have got the golden coins and I will pull you out the tree, but you must give me the tin box as saying a "thank you.” So the woman tied a long rope to the soldier and he jumped down.
    He first went to the first dog and threw the stick and when the dog ran away he took the copper coins, he then traded it for the silver coins, and then for the gold coins. He put the tin box into his pocket and put his gold coins into his the other pocket, he called the old woman and she pulled him up.
    The woman asked for the tin box, but the soldier took out his sword and killed the witch, taking the money and the tin box. He went to a the palace and ate rich food, wore rich clothes and even gave some money to the servants who was were always very kind to him, and his life went on continued very happily (you can add "ever after" as that is what is normally ut at the end of fairy tales) .

    I believe i can make it.

    Time flies, i can not cannot believe it's already the 2nd week in the of university. There are so many things that need to be completed this month, and i am getting much more busier than the last week. I feel lots of pressure from the to study, 4 assignments need to be done before the 28th, and there is also a IELTS test is on the 29th. So, now i am getting worried about whether i can pass the test and assignments., because I cannot balance the studying time between the assignments and the IELTS test, both of them are important to me. But, no matter what happens, life continues  is still continuing, and I will spare no effort to work on these tasks.

    Dit was a baie goeie skryf stuk! Idiome kan tyd vat, want hulle maak nie altyd sin nie, daar was net een of twee klyn sintakse wat jy kon verbter, maar anders was die stuk baie goed geskryf.


    Want Omdat ek het die taalkunde gestudeer het, het ek 'n bietjie kennis van verskeie tale, want. My doel vir die volgende twaalf maande is om op twee tale te fokus (Afrikaans en Frans)  en die tale te verbeter hulle (hulle is used for people not things) tot die punt waar ek kan ten minste 'n B1 sertifikasie kan kry.

    Hello =) "he" beteken "want" in engels. so as ek jou sin direk na engels toe vertaal is dit: "That's not what he wanted/ that's not what he would have wanted" jy sal nie kon se nie: "That's not what he would have" So "he" is indien nodig vir daardie sin. =) goeie afrikaans werk, keep it up!
