I grew up in Michigan, and I've lived for some time in China, Thailand, and Singapore. Right now I live in San Jose, CA. My Spanish and Chinese are pretty good, and my Thai is a little rougher but not bad. I've taught English is Thailand and the US, and I love helping people get more comfortable communicating.

However, when he saw the delicious food that my mom cooked was cooking last night, he wanted to back out. but I refused. Then this morning I saw him was running on the treadmill. :D After he finished, I also run ran on the treadmill for one and a half hours. I hope we both of us could will keep running. Fighting! Go us! We can do it! Let's do it! Don't give up!

    "Came into" means to acquire, somewhat unexpectedly "Cut and dry" means the results were clear, definite, not debatable, there is no doubt or question about the results

    Nothing grammatically wrong, but I'd be much more likely to say "I'm alright" or "I'm ok". I don't think I've ever said "I'm so-so". I answer so-so more for "how did it go" type questions. E.g. How was the test? So-so. How was the movie? Just so-so.

    Once upon a time, a man came to a village and said to the villagers that he would buy monkeys at 10 rs each. Because there were a lot of monkeys so the villagers started their work at once. That man bought 1000 monkeys, each 10 rs. Now The supply of monkeys got went down and gradually villagers had stopped catching makeysmonkeys. Because of that that the man announced again that he would pay 20 rs for each monkey. Villager started catching monkeys again as when they heard.

    The monkey's population got went down, and villagers gave it up it and started farming. Now it they got get paid 25 rs for each monkey. Its hard to see them because of the low population rate of them.

    That The man announced 50 for each monkey again. Now his asssistent would do his work because he had to go to the city for some important work. In the abssence of that the man, his assistent said to told the villagers that they could buy a monkeys in the cage from a store? from a breeder? for 35 rs and sold out it sell them to that man to 50 rs.

    Then So every villager spent all their all money to buy monkeys. After that his the assistant and that the man never seen again, it was there were monkeys everywhere.

    So we should not be greedy and we should be mindful/thoughtful think from mind. No one can get anything for free. Work hard to get anything, and the rest depends on luck.

    This is a confusing sentence, without background knowledge of the topic, but here's my attempt: As financial institutions get better at identifying projects that are more likely to fail, asymmetric information problems have less impact in their financial systems.

    In the singular form, sect, the t is clearly pronounced. However, I do not pronounce the t in the plural form. I'm actually sitting here trying to make the t sound between the c and the s, and am finding it very difficult to do. I am a native US-English speaker from Michigan.

    It's not incorrect, but "The most often used color" sounds more awkward than the other two. The other two sound totally natural. If you switch the word order, "Red is the color used most often" sounds natural too.

    "It's been an experience for me" is correct. "To me" is used more to express my opinion, and "for me" is used more for the effect something has on me. In this case, we wouldn't say "it's been an experience to me". It doesn't really make sense. Here's another example... "It sounds good to me" means "In my opinion, it is a good idea" "It sounds good for me" means "It will benefit me"
