    个人愚见,欢迎指正。 讥讽和嘲讽通常不伴随着笑。 讥笑和嘲笑通常伴随着笑。 讥刺我第一次听说。 嘲弄有戏弄的成分。 冷嘲热讽强调 indirect 和 direct (对应冷和热) 以上这些通常做动词或名词,描述的是人对人或人对事物的行为。 讽刺除做动词和名词外还可做形容词,特别是描述某种事物。 就像说 某种情形 ironic.

    出差的生活

    其实我没有新的工作, means “ In fact, I don't have a new job" which can be a little ambiguous about whether you are still doing your old job. Judging by the context, you are still doing your old job. Then, change it to 其实我没有换工作(In fact, I didn't change my job) is better.

    我在巴尔的摩工作是因为我公司派了我到了另一个项目。It is grammatically correct but sounds unnatural.

    那每周二,我会坐早上7点的火车从纽约到巴尔的摩,让后然后再坐25分钟出租车到我客户的公司。

    星期二和星期三晚上我都是在巴尔的摩的旅馆休息,星期四下午3点多我就会坐火车回去到纽约。

    If you are trying to say at the time of "3点多" you are already in New York, then it will be a different correction.

    每周星期一和星期五,我不用出差的时候 ,我可以选择在家工作,或者到我公司工作。

    Again, grammatically correct but sounds unnatural. You see, in 在家工作, you didn't add 我 before 家. And it is unnecessary and unnatural to add 我 before 家 or 公司 in this sentence, because the subject of the sentence is 我.

    平时一般我都会比较喜欢去公司工作,然而但是公司空间很少,没有安静的地方可以在电话上开会开电话会议。

    You can use 然而 as you can use 在电话上开会. Roughly speaking, 然而 and 但是 are the same. But they do have some slight difference. One I can think of is: compared to 但是, 然而 can be old fashioned, formal or written, which we tend to not to use in daily life.

    Overall, your Chinese is good.

    Female English names Are the following common female English names, Daisy, Heather, Iris, Ivy, Jasmine, Lily, Rose, Rosemary and Violet? Are there any more female English names can be used as a pun? How does it feel like in English-speaking world if a 9-people group chooses names from the 9 names mentioned above?

    我的家庭.
    We seldom use punctuation marks in a title. “我的家庭” means “my family”. Perhaps, change it to “我和我的家庭(家人)” may be better judging by your following writing, which means “I (me) and my family (families)”.
    我工作在 UFV。
    Switch “工作” and “在 UFV”.
    我八年有工作这儿。
    Correction: “我在这儿工作八年了。”
    我的女儿十三岁 还有 我儿子九岁。
    “的” is used correctly but unnecessary. “  还有  ” is used wrong, here, you can simply replace it with “,”. Actually, since you have already mentioned “I have two kids”, the whole sentence can be simplified as “女儿十三岁,儿子九岁”.
    我女儿的名字Mira 还有我儿子的叫 Quinlan。
    Correction: “女儿叫Mira, 儿子叫Quinlan”
    Mira 不是人。她是舞蹈家。
    “Mira 不是人” means “Mira is not a human”. We can simply drop it and say “Mira 是一位舞蹈家”. Without knowing the song called "Human", it’s hard to get the joke.
    她说话那哈哈。
    I don’t understand this one.
    她也喜欢 Anime,玩游和 zombies.
    Correction: “她也喜欢动画片和僵尸游戏” which means “she also likes anime and zombie games”.
    Quinlan 喜欢很多东西。跳舞,歌唱,艺术,演戏,和科学。
    Punctuation marks. And change it to “Quinlan 爱好广泛,有跳舞、歌唱、艺术、演戏和科学。” sounds more natural.
    我现在。我单身狗。
    Correction: “我现在是单身狗”
    Use “单身狗” to call yourself is self-mockery. It’s trendy and informal.
    我的前妻是木工,但是现在她在工作一个舞蹈学校。
    Switch “一个舞蹈学校” and “工作”.
    他们精彩的人。
    By “人”, you mean “people” or “life(人生,生活)”?
    I guess you were trying to say “they all have wonderful lives”. “他们都有精彩的生活”
    我非常爱我的孩子非常。
    The “非常” at the end should be removed.

    Some words can be hard to understand even for Chinese, e.g. 辰牌时分(although baidu can tell us), 地甲(for this word, baidu let me down, although I have a rough idea of what it is). Even the target language is modern English, it’s also challenging.

    I think your concern is “她在农村长大” means “she is growing up in the rural area”. But she is an adult now. So it doesn’t make sense. But the proper translation for “她在农村长大” is “she grew up in the rural area”.

    个人认为 当然 对 是 可以 后面跟“啊”或“呀”几乎是一样的 它们后面也都可以跟“啦” 但与跟“啊”或“呀”稍有语气或意思上的不同

    我的名字。

    我名叫Venus, 就象地球(与地球一样,是颗行星)。在高中时我的中文老师叫我冬金星。现在我觉得这个名字很(very)/有点(a little)奇怪。但是,我仍然很喜欢。这将是在中国这会是的一个奇怪的名字吗?
