My question

I am very interested in British philosophers. For example, D. Hume, J. S. Mill, Jeremy Bentham, etc. I study them in my university classes .
I would like to read their original texts without translation, but they are so difficult for me. I guess one of the reasons is the long sentences.
For example, there are a lot of colons and semi-colons in “On Liberty," so the sentences don’t end clearly. Sometimes when I read them, I can’t understand where the subjects are in the sentences. Are they dropped? Is their literature different from today’s books?
If the original language is English, is it easy to interpret?
Please, teach me how to read a book with such long sentences.

Has anyone ever encountered a "conceited, pompous, narrow-minded silly" person on italki?(Jane Austen)

I had the funniest encouter a few minutes ago on italki. I was writing fast and in an tad bit of a funny mood, so I thought this could make a case for correction.
Someone asked if anyone was available for an instant one-on-one English practice. I message the person back, and here's how it went:

Me: Hi there! Do you still want to practice English? 
X: Yes, and I am sorry, but I have to warn you that I am not interested in any religious discussions.
Me: X, you just made my day! I'm very puzzled now. You drew my attention. Why would you think I'd be interested in "any religious discussions"? If this is a general question you ask all your language partners, please do forgive my inquiry.
X: I had just checked your profile and your comments madame. Have a great day!
Me: Thank you X, you too. Though I have no clue what just happed here or what you were imagining... But I wish you all the luck in your language learning journey.
X: Your homophobia says a lot about you.
Me: X,
In a wave of desolation, my mind is telling me to ignore you at this point; but I would hate for us to part on a very big misunderstanding and tarnish my experience on italki.
Obviously, you are referring to my comment on the discussion about polygamy. And I can only attribute the quid pro quo to the fact that you haven't fully mastered the French language.
I urge you to read it quietly and slowly or to ask a "native" French speaker to analyze my comment for you.
If you knew anything about me--which you don't--you would have known how utterly ironic your accusing me of homophobia is.
Please be more open-minded and make more usexpensive of mindfulness.
I am going to leave at this point.
Cheers.
X: And you must master the Spanish language. Lol
Fortunately, I read your profile before accepting your request.

Eminem enunciates very well! So, if you like rap music and are learning English, he would be good to listen to. However, not everything he says is polite or acceptable to say to others, so be careful what you repeat! I personally enjoy some of his music and love to hear the rhythm ofnhis articulation. He sounds like a drum to me! I wish he and the guy from Radwimps (a Japanese band) would go head-to-head in a collaboration together. That would be AWESOME.

Could anybody please correct this entry for me?

Today, I'm going to write about education in my country. First of all, it seriously lacks practical activities and focuses too much on theories. Students go to class and just sit the whole day listening to their teachers. Also, in any of the high school classes, the most noticeable thing is that the teachers are always the ones who talk. They teach lessons and tell their students what to do. That, in the end, makes people become very inactive and reserved. Secondly, any questions from teacher always have one answer right. If the student's answer doesn't match the answer in the teacher's mind, then it is totally wrong. That results in those students being afraid of making mistakes in the future, and they will think there is only one solution to an issue when they have to step out in the real world, where anything can happen and where every question has more than one answer. Add to that, the education system asks students to learn what they are not fond of. It's like trying to teach a fish to climb a tree. Students have a right to study what they find interesting so that they will have opportunities to show their abilities as well as find out what talents they have. Vietnamese education has to be changed if we want to develop the country.


Many thanks to you for helping me correct this.

My home

I have two bed rooms, one drawing room, one kitchen, one store room and one bathroom in my home. I have a vast yard and a roof. I know I have small home, but I like my small home because small houses are easy to keep neat and clean.
