    Progrès Vrai le 19 mai 2018 Il est maintenant mai 2018. J'ai commencé à apprendre le français il y a une année et un mois. Et je n'ai vu jamais une ère d'amélioration comme ceci depuis que j'ai atteint un plateau l'été dernier. J'essayais apprendre plus mais mon français semblait être en retard. Mais mon prof de français m'a sauvé. En ces 6 mois derniers, je peux soudainement absorber vocabulaire et grammaire comme c'est mon petit déjeuner! Quand je lis mes écrits français d'il y a 6 mois, ils sont terribles par comparison! Les chansons qui étaient torture essayant de comprendre, maintenant les mots me viennent comme l'eau coule d'un fleuve. Je peux avoir des conversations avec moi-même relativement facilement, et j'ai même trouvé une locutrice native qui est fallu apprendre l'anglais! On est maintenant des amis. Ma plus grande problème est avec vouvoyer. quand j'essaie parler avec mon professeur de français, je me frustre souvent quand je l'appelle 'tu' ou des 'ton's viennent dans la conversation. J'imagine qu'il comprenne, mais j'y suis frustré.

    Janvier (Encore) J'en ai écrit l'année dernière, mais j'y suis encore! Et j'ai pratiqué beaucoup en 2017. Je n'ai utilisé pas du tout ce site. Et maintenant que je suis ici, je veux vérifier que je m'ai amélioré. Je crois avoir beaucoup appris, beaucoup de mots et beaucoup de caractéristiques grammaticales, mais vous déciderez. Veuillez réviser ceci! Le numéro 8 est meilleur que le numéro 7, donc d'aller de 2017 à 2018 me rend tres heureux.

    I love snow

    What's the most amazing thing that happens in winter? I think it would be snow sceneries. When snow is falling, the world is totally changed into something completely different. Everything outside is white, instead of the grey ones. Snow can make a gloomy winter become brighter. I put my desk in front of the window. As I am studying, I can glance at the snowing falling. Drinking a cup of coffee ,as while enjoying the beautiful scenes of snow, do not forgetting to studying my English lessons as well, I feel myself comfortable and calm , even in such a cold winter.


    NOTES: Just a couple things. "To feel," as in to sense or think, is not a reflexive verb. In other words, it's "I feel," not "I feel myself," as that would have quite a different connotations. Also, 'glare' does mean 'to look' in one sense, but is negative. For example, "The woman spilled my coffee on me. I glared at her." It's pretty angry. So I'd guess you'd be more likely to 'glance' at snow, meaning a quick look.

    I found out the reason why I have a sleeping problem

    Yesterday night, I finally realized why I always have sleeping problems. I can not fall into a deep sleep, and I always wake up several times during the night. 
    That is because I always have a bad habit. Before I fall asleep, I aways shut all the lights off and lie in the bed, watching TV shows, or reading online novels in the dark for about half an hour and then close my cellphone and wait to fall asleep. But after all that entertainment my brain is still excited and thinking about the scenes I just saw. That is the reason, and I finally figured it out.

    DISCLAIMER: My corrections are for everyday, casual English, and may not be acceptable for formal circumstances.

    ORANGE are nitpicks, to sound more natural in the opinion of a native, mostly for casual circumstances.

    PURPLE are Corrections

    RED are removals

    'NOTES:

    So, just a few things, This was good, just a few things having to do with sounding natural. It's better to say "Fall into a deep sleep" than to "Fall asleep deeply." And You could either say "during the night," or "while asleep," but "during the sleeping time" is not very natural. Also, generally in English narrative, when writing about a story, the verbs are past  tense. So "I found out" instead of "I find out." And also, "I have a habit" already signifies repetition, so "I always have a habit" is more or less redundant. 

    Hope I've been helpful, keep up the good work!

    Janvier C'est le première mois en l'anée. Et il est le plus ennuyeuse. Ça semble que rien se passe, et le fait qu'il est froid n'aides pas. Nous sommes seulement seize jours en le mois de monotonie. Oh bien, ça me donnes du temps à travailler sur mon français.

    Please correct my essay and do not care about my quotation too much. Thanks!

    Our human lives are short and bitter. The road to finish our tasks is heavy and long. It is like Chinese text Zhuangzi said, “people live in the world between air and land, the whole period of life is really short like strong white horses are running fast through the gap”. All of a sudden, a baby will become a child. All of a sudden, a child will become middle aged person. And all of a sudden, the middle aged person will become an older, dying person.

    人生苦短,任重而道远。如庄子云:“人生天地之间,若白驹过隙,忽然而已。”一个婴儿,忽然之间,已成青年了;忽然之间,已过中年了;忽然之间,老态龙钟了。 Once again, can't read chinese.

    Notes: my first observation: While english has no strict rules on what adjectives come where, there are some vague guidlines, which you can read about at the link below. "A red big balloon" is technically correct, but any native will tell you that "a big red balloon" is correct. Because it's just another one of those convoluted English rules you'll have to get used to, not necessarily to be just grammatically correct, but to sound like a native. English is quite a challenge to undertake, so congratulations on getting this far, and keep on pushing!

    Unfortunately I'm becoming fatter

    The next day I found out a dress from my wardrobe that was really cute. I haven't worn it for a long time. However I really wanted to wear it to go to work today. Then I picked up the dress and tried to put it on from my head but it was too tight to fit onto my body. All of a sudden, I heard a sound of a tear, that because my dress was torn. And then I realized that unfortunately I've become fatter. That's a terrible news and I'm really hurt.

    Notes: Per request, I'm back to edit another of your entries. Now remember, my goal is to make you sound as natural as possible. In a very formal context, some parts of this edit may not be appropriate. I assumed here that you wanted to sound natural. Here are my observations:

        When a plate or anything solid is broken, we use the word broken. when a fabric is "broken," we say torn. and the act of making a fabric torn is tearing, pronounced as /teɹ.iŋ/ (t-ay-r-ing) unlike its homograph tearing  (tiɹ.iŋ) (t-eer-ing) which refers to the watering of the eyes. not to be worried about in writing, but it can be tricky in speech.

        While you can say "one dress," it might be better to say "a dress." When you say "one dress," it can just sound unnatural or like you're stressing that it's not two or three dresses but one.

        I changed "had a strong desire" to "really wanted" because it sounded more natural, but I wouldn't put that anywhere formal.


        It's horrible you had to end up tearing your dress, but it happens to the best of us, don't feel bad :) I'm happy to help again, Keep up the amazing English!

    Please correct my translation. Thanks!

    Our lives should be very happy. We should enjoy our life in the beauty of nature, and from the love of people, and in the sweetness of the life, and about the happiness from our creations. On the contrary, what if we spend our whole life
    in the sadness, being upset, and in pain, and... Sigh, isn't that a big waste?

    生命,应该在欢喜中度过,尽情享受自然之美,尽情享受人间之 爱,尽情享受生活之甘甜,尽情享受创造之快乐。相反,如果一生都在烦恼痛苦、伤心叹息中度过,岂不是浪费大好生命吗?Sorry, can't read mandarin :(

    Notes: My disclaimer is that I don't speak mandarin. I don't know what exactly you were saying so I'm just correcting the English. It's possible that the original message may have been distorted. Now here are my observations:

    When listing in English, it is generally agreed upon that if 3 or more items are listed, then you separate each of them with commas and put "and" only on the last item.

    When you want to convey an interruption in speech, you can either use an ellipsis (...) or an em dash (—). I chose an ellipsis.

    Overall, very good job! Keep it up!
