I am Sophia, and I am from the United States, and I have lived all along the East Coast as well as in Texas. Currently, I am waiting to be able to get a better price to go to college. I am planning on being a math major. I want to learn Japanese and Spanish for two very different reasons. A lot of the media I enjoy is in Japanese, and it can be very difficult, not to mention frustrating, to have to rely on others to translate these materials for me. I would enjoy being able to read and listen to these myself. I have a desire to learn Spanish because my father's side of the family is Spanish-speaking, and so are a lot of people where I live. I would be a huge asset to my Church if I were able to speak fluently. At this time, I'm simply looking for other learners, so that we can motivate each other, and perhaps trade knowledge back and forth.

    Happiness Cafe

    The government has been developing a project to offer its employees a place called "Happiness Cafe" which each worker could chill out during and after work´s journey.

    Employers claim that employees could produce more if they feel happy and satisfied. In this regard, the government is building a prototype cafe inside a company to offer for employees a place which they can relax and unwind in the workplace environment for a while.

    This kind of room will have large sofas, couches and a beautiful yard with a fountain. The perfect environment to take a rest or maybe get a nap for an enough time to recharge the battery before returning back to work.

    I am not sure if it can will be a good idea. Relaxing into a place with my boss surrounding around me can be a little crazy to think about. I will prefer to receive an invite invitation to spend my free time in a place outside the company instead of keeping myself there.

    Sometimes. It depends on the person and the languages.

    Study grammar, and with everything you learn, try it out with an English tutor.

    This was actually really good! Most of the corrections here are to make it sound more natural A warning released by the Earthquake Observation Association suggests that a volcano located in the south of Italy was erupting. OR The Earthquake Observation Association released a warning which suggests that a volcano in southern Italy erupted. (Second one is more natural) a. The people who were living near the volcano and threatened by lava flows and volcanic ash should be evacuated to safe areas. (corrected) b. The people *living* near the volcano and threatened by lava flows and volcanic ash should be evacuated to safe areas. (corrected) better option - People threatened by the volcano's lava and ash should evacuate. notes: - You use "passive voice" a lot in this, which is correct, but not best. "a warning which was released by the Earthquake Observation Association" is in the "passive voice". "Active voice" is usually better, for example "the Earthquake Observation Association released a warning" - "in the south of Italy" -> "southern Italy" - proper nouns (names) should be capitalized. "earthquake observation association" -> "Earthquake Observation Association" - "suggested ... showed signs of" both of these are ways of making a statement less sure. You normally only use one. - "showing signs of eruption" sounds very strange, "showing signs of erupting" sounds more natural. - "people who were living near", "people living near", and "people who live near" are all correct. "People living near" would be the best choice, and "people who live near" is also okay. - "Lava floods" in American English are called either "lava flows" or just "lava" - "Volcanic ashes" may be correct, but I've always heard it called "volcanic ash"' - "Should be evacuated" is also passive. "Should evacuate" is better. -"should evacuate to safe areas" and "should evacuate" mean the same thing. "Evacuate" means to "leave a dangerous place". "should evacuate" is more natural

    They mean the same thing. "Attire" is a formal word, and "outfit" is a casual word. "Clothing" is a neutral word that would usually be used when talking about this. I would say "traditional Indonesian clothing" would be the most natural way to say it in American English.

    "mount immune response" means how their immune system acts. Mount means similarly to "mount an attack". So "women mount more potent immune responses" means that women's bodies produce a stronger immune response -- more antibodies, more likely to get hives or fever, a weak feeling, etc.

    I left my lunch box.

    I left one of my lunch boxs at home today.
    I usually bring two lunch boxes and one is meat or fish and vegetables, the other is rice.
    Since I forgot to bring my lunch box, I ended up having lunch without rice and I got hungry around 3pm.
    My coworker gave me some Japanese sweets so I was satisfied my appetite.  (to satisfy my appetite/so I would be satisfied)
