What's Who's your favourite writer? (a writer is a person, so use "who")

As for me, my favourite writer is Erich Maria Remark, because I've read only his books for last 2 years. I read the most popular books and I liked their them. The last book I have read is "Arch of Triumph". The book is about a German refugee in France and his story of unlucky love. They met accidentally at a night and then their story have had started.
I like cases situations like this because in real life it's great when you meet a girl or boy when you drive ride on a bus to the same city and you have a conversation, or if you have a rest at the same camp etc. instead to and get acquainted purposely with list of questions and so on through talking and asking questions. (I wasn't 100% sure what you were trying to say with the last sentence, so I corrected it with how I interpreted it.)

Health Insurance

Hi folks,
I'll appreciate your help correcting my entry! Please be noted that the information I'm giving below can be wrong. All are based on my personal experience and knowledge.
---------------
I have lived in three countries, Japan, Australia, and the USA, and I feel that the health Insurance system in the USA is so complicated compared with to other countries.
Both in Japan and Australia, they have a nation-wide insurance which all the citizens are covered under. In Japan, people pay a monthly insurance fee which is set based on their annual earnings and the national insurance mostly covers 70% of their medical bills. While, in Australia, the national insurance, Medicare, are basically free for all citizen and residents in Australia. The GP visits are mostly full-covered by the insurance and people need to pay the full bills for the specialists and the medications.
On the other hand, there is no national insurance covered coverage for all residents in the USA. There are so many insurance companies and insurance plans to choose from. Each insurance varies from each company where people work for and the coverage varies from each insurance plan. Employees usually choose their own health insurance plan from a couples of choices given by their companies.
At first, when my husband was not aware of this insurance system since he was more familiar with Australian insurance system. He was so confused and had to do lots of research to make a decision. Also each and every time we find found a new clinic and a doctor, we needed to check if it was covered by our insurance. We even cannot couldn't even figure out how much the bill will would be, which confused us as well.
I am was hoping that the insurance in the USA would be more simple and straightforward like the ones in Japan and Australia.

Thank you,
Mami

Vocabulary is always important and always difficult. Right now, my husband and I are learning Japanese (because we moved to Japan), and he listens to Podcasts that teach Japanese for different situations (going shopping, eating in a restaurant, weather...). They help him with the pronunciation and give him confidence when he hears the phrases from the Podcast. Maybe there is something like that for English. Another option is just vocabulary lists (I use Quizlet) to drill and memorize vocabulary. Don't be embarrassed! You will get past this challenge! Learning another language is difficult.

"used to" has two meanings: 1) as a verb in the past form: something you did in the past, but do not do now "I used to perm my hair." "I used to smoke." "I used to drive a Honda." 2) with "to be" in present form: something you are accustomed to (something that is normal for you) "I am used to the cold." "She is used to standing for 8 hours." "We are used to eating late." When using "get used to," we are referring to meaning #2 by saying "become accustomed to" or "learn that this is normal." (can be used with other verbs (use "get") or to be (use gerund) "I need to get to used waking up early." "She wants to get used to exercising early in the morning." "He is getting used to the new job." ---- Hope that helps!

A "blade" is a more vague term for something that is sharp or thin, and isn't usually said on it's own (blade of grass, knife blade, razor blade, ice skate blades) You can shorten to just "razor," but this typically what native speakers will think you're talking about ( http://freesamples2fillupyourmailbox.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Gillette-Venus-Embrace-Razor.jpg ). American english is full of words that are unnecessarily specific (eyeglasses vs. glasses, horseback riding vs. horse riding)

"which" is used for an option or explaining a reason -*Which* sandwich do you want today? -That shirt is comfortable, *which* is why I bought it. -I cannot decide *which* movie to watch. "whom" is used in place of "who" when it is not the subject Subject: *Who* are you going to the movie with? Not the subject: With *whom* are you going to the movie? Subject: *Who* is this present for? Not the subject: For *whom* is this present? "while" is for time (either to say "during" an action, or as a measure time - usually a long time) *While* I was at the store, I bought milk. *While* you are in America, make sure you eat a lot of pizza. It has been raining for a *while.* It has been a *while* since I've talked to you. ------ Hope these help a little

You *will* never be happy if you depend emotionally on people. The truth seems strange in *a* world full of lies. Loneliness is good for your mental health. The pain started *to* escalate after the anesthesia *wore off*.
