Brazilian Carnival according to Brazilians

According to a study that was done last year, only 31% of Brazilians really wanted to celebrate the 2016 Carnival. The majority of the people interviewed (55% of total) wanted the opportunity to relax, meanwhile only 8% of the people interviewed wanted to celebrate the Carnival holidays by going to parties and things like that.
This study show us that Brazilians do like to celebrate the Carnival, but not exactly for the partying. It is very common for some people (especially older people) to take the opportunity to either spend time with their families or go to more relaxing places, like the countryside.
The study shows us that although Brazilians like the Carnival holidays, it is not necessarily about partying, drinking and dancing for them.

Soy nuevo al español y estoy aprendiendo.

hola! me llamo jiyar, tengo veinte años, soy curdo y amo los idiomas, si puedes ayudarme te lo agradesco, muchas gracias.

I'm interested in learning mandarin but it's hard to find a native mandarin speaker that's speaks English fluently.

There's a storm in my city of ( your cities name).

It's 3pm on sunday and I want to practice my English!!! It's raining a lot,  which is perfect to just relax and study English via Italki... If I made some mistakes, let me know, please. Tks.

It means so so, like if you went to eat let's say a pizza and it wasn't bad but it wasn't that good either then you can say the pizza was "alright".

You can say it in a couple different ways but the correct one is For. You can say " I've been here for 2 hrs" ( it already implies you've been waiting for that amount of time) It's been 2 hours since I got here.

Correct me please :)

THE BEST PLACE TO LIVE IN

In my opinion, the best place to live is Mallorca.
Mallorca is an island near Spain. It isn't very big, but it's a place homely ( no tengo la menor idea de lo que quieres decir). You can find a different places, from a town to a rural village. You can also go to the beach or you can take a trip to the mountains. We have multiple beaches. The beach of Arenal is a very big beach. In the summer it's full of tourist, specially of German tourist. We also have small beaches, these beaches are the most beautiful in Mallorca. There aren't that many people and it's quieter. In these beaches, the water is completely clear it looks like the beaches in the caribbean , except without the palms trees.
The weather in Mallorca is warm, but gets hot in the summer . Sometimes it reaches 40ºC. This is the  perfect time to go to the beach and bathe in the water or lie down under the umbrella; but it isn't the best weather if you're working. In these cases you really need to have an air conditioner.
The food is also very good. The "ensaimada" is a very popular food in Mallorca. It's typical to have "ensaimada" for breakfast or as a snack with hot chocolate.

I would recommend Mallorca for your next vacation.
