    * hurdles :)


    I would recommend this book:

    http://www.biblionet.gr/book/63259/%CE%92%CE%B1%CE%BB%CF%83%CE%B1%CE%BC%CE%AC%CE%BA%CE%B7_-_%CE%A4%CE%B6%CE%B5%CE%BA%CE%AC%CE%BA%CE%B7,_%CE%A6%CE%B1%CE%BD%CE%AE/%CE%A4%CE%B1_%CE%BD%CE%AD%CE%B1_%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%BB%CE%B7%CE%BD%CE%B9%CE%BA%CE%AC_%CE%B3%CE%B9%CE%B1_%CE%BE%CE%AD%CE%BD%CE%BF%CF%85%CF%82


    It will be literally all Greek to you in the beginning, because the book is written in Greek, but it starts with the very basics: the alphabet and pronunciation rules. The book is authored by a team of professors at the University of Thessaloniki and has been being used (an updated) since the 70s. I've used it in the past to teach Greek to a friend of mine. It will be best to use it with a language partner.

    Το "απλόχερα" είναι επίρρημα. Δες την πρόταση σε δυο κομμάτια. "Σμίξε τα": Το "σμίξε" είναι προστακτική του ρήματος "σμίγω". Το "σμίξε τα" τυπικά γίνεται "σμίξτα", δηλαδή το "σμίξε τ' απλόχερα" είναι "σμίξτα απλόχερα".

    The ending -ικά is similar to the suffixes -craft (as in aircraft, hovercraft, witchcraft) or -stuff (as in breadstuff, greenstuff). So, in a way, ζυμαρικά, is like saying... doughstuff or doughcraft.

    They are near-synonyms, but you cannot always interchange them (as a rule, if a prefix is prepended to a word, then its meaning is modified - at least a little bit). Εκμάθηση is more associated with the process of learning, not the concept of learning. As Evelina explained, you may say that "Η εκμάθηση μιας ξένης γλώσσας απαιτεί μεγάλη προσπάθεια" - this refers to the process of learning - you may, however, also replace the work "εκμάθηση" with "μάθηση". What is more, you may not say "δια βίου εκμάθηση" (lifelong learning). Instead, you should say "δια βίου μάθηση". There are several other standardised phrases where you would use "μάθηση" instead of "εκμάθηση". For instance, if you are familiar with the term "learning curve", in Greek this translated to "καμπύλη μάθησης". But to cut the long story short, if you're not very advanced in Greek, I think you should go with "μάθηση". It will work for you in most of the cases.

    I have only this chance

    Dream about what you want.
    Be what you wanna be.
    Because you have only one life
    and it only gives you a chance
    to do what you wanna do.
    Have enough happiness to make it sweet.
    Difficulties to make it strong.
    Sadness to make it humane (A humane person is one who shows great compassion and caring for others, including animals, and who tries whenever possible to alleviate another's suffering. The word humane is different from the word human and it's also pronounced differently).
    And hope enough to make it happy (this doesn't sound good. What do you want to say?).
    The happiest people don't have the best things.
    They know how to make the best opportunities
    appear in his (their) ways (the last verse is not very clear).
    Clarisse Lispector

    I changed my bedroom!!(I like the changes !)

    Don't use two exclamation marks: !!. One suffices!

    So, I like the changes very much about the things(no about people)! I decided to move rearrange the things stuff/furniture of in my bedroom. I wanted to change my visual ("visual" is an adjective.). I putted my bed near the window and the closet at the opposite side. I also have and one a sofa in my bedroom and Ι'm confused about it . I decided to put place it near the other window. It seems nice! The colors which Ι selected are black, beige, and red!! (there is no need to use an exclamation mark here) My text  next step is will be to change the living room! I mainly want to change [you are repeating the word "change" too much.] the colors of sofas and the decorative items. I think that I success will obtain a good result!

    Preparing for IELTS, eager for corrections.

    The first chart shows the (I'd say "an overview") overview of the amount of Australian domestic energy use by six categories, whereas the latter one is compared "compares" or "presents a juxtaposition of" the causes of the greenhouse gas emissions by applying six types of household energy consumption. [In my opinion, the sentence is too long - you could consider rephrasing it somehow]

    As it is clarified (doesn't sound correct - better say: as it can be clearly observed),heating takes is responsible for the largest percentage with 42%,followed by water heating with 30%. The rest of four categories, namely, cooling (usually it is referred to as "air-conditioning"),lighting, refrigeration and other (consumption by) appliances, are at (you can say "account for the") 2%,4%,7% and 15% respectively.

    Given the information from the second chart,water heating and other appliances take the majority of responsibility for greenhouse gas emissions, at the average level with 30% (30% on average?). The second place fell on heating and refrigeration Heating and refrigeration come second with 15% and 14% separately. Once again, cooling and lighting are at the bottom (rephrase).

    Overall, heating consumed almost half of the field (?) of utilizing, whereas water heating was the largest producer contributor to of the greenhouse gas emissions.
