My name is Rachel, I'm from San Francisco, CA, and I'm a double bass undergrad at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I'm learning a language because I enjoy conlanging. I already have some basic knowledge of Latin and German, and am interested in pursuing some of the Scandinavian languages. I'm mostly just curious about how/if this website works.

    Anden Uge (eller er den den tredje?) Hej hej hej jeg er tilbage! (jeg synes det ville have rimet på den svenske udtale :P) Denne er min anden eller tredje uge intensivt med at lære dansk, og hver dag jeg nyder det mere og mere. Jeg ville ønske, at jeg havde mere tid at lære dansk fordi det er så sjovt, men desværre det går ikke. (Jeg ved ikke hvordan at sige det korrekt. Undskyld!) Nå, men jeg skal slutte dette her. I morgen jeg vil prøve at læse den første side af H.C. Andersens Den Lille Havfrue. Indtil næste gang! Rachel (Korriger venligst mine fejl, hvis jer har tiden!)

    Their happiness was of short duration. The storm prevented the plan from happening. What did the teacher speak about at the lesson? To walk on the grass is forbidden. The plane could not fly away owing to a severe storm. ("owing to" is fine, however we would generally say "due to") The flight was postponed because of the bad weather.

    You want to study vocabulary that's important to you, stuff you'll actualy use. Once you get past the basics, for which I would also recommend memrise or really any flashcard-like software, find books that you would want to read in your native language in English, or English music you already like, things like this which you would enjoy regardless of the language. You're brain will be much more engaged this way rather than slogging through textbook drudgery.

    Be careful with just reading or writing, however, because you won't get a sense of how words are pronounced, especially in English where spelling is of little assistance in that department.

    "I have something" means you currently own or possess a thing. "I got something" is either a very slang way of saying the former, or is used properly and means that you received something. "I've got something" or "I have got something" is just another way of saying "I have something." Also, generally we don't "employ" words so much as we "use" them.

    The first one is correct. "Rather than" needs to stay together. "Rather" by itself is closer to "but" or "instead".

    I believe you mean something like, "In writing, I'm able to think about it for a long time, but with conversation I only have a short time, and I don't know many words or grammar. So I don't know how to respond to questions with partners." Or something to that effect.
