    Hi Sanam, 


    There are a number of ways you can tell:

    - from written there are different spellings for example color (American) and colour (British)

    - there are some words which are different eg soccer (American) or football (British)

    -also the accent is different but this comes with practice :)

    I hope this helps

    Claire :)

    Great question and one that many people find a problem with....try to remember when using the auxillary verbs (is or does) we use am/is/are when we don't have a verb other than "to be"....we use do/does when we have a verb such as walk/read/go....I have shown some examples below.


    No verb other than auxillary...

    She is a teacher....is she a teacher?

    We are at home....are we at home?

    It is Friday...Is it Friday?


    With a verb...

    We go to school everyday....do we go to school everyday?

    She eats fish on a Friday....Does she eat fish on a Friday? 

    He goes to the cinema once a month....does he go to the cinema once a month?


    I hope this helps it to be a little clearer for you...practice makes perfect :)

    Kiss you, without a trace

    Kiss you, without a trace.
    Like the pure moonlight dancing on the rippling lake,
    Like the vivid rose lying on the muddy ground,
    Like I kiss you.

    Kiss you, behind the mask.
    Like the calm lake, embracing the pure moonlight,
    Like the silent ground, holding the vivid rose,
    Like I kiss you.

    Kiss you, underneath the sheen.
    Even if the moonlight is transient,
    Even if the rose is evanescent,
    It’s just like I kiss you


    I think this is a wonderful piece of poetry, well done, I really felt emotion reading this.


    Thank you :)

    What's the meaning of your life?

    Inspired by https://www.italki.com/notebook//entry/710327

    Actually it is not the most interesting topic for a notebook entry. This subject is so stock that no one wants to read about it again. Nevertheless, now I write about it, about the meaning of a life.
    Usually a person thinks about it when he or she is a child. Mostly people stop thinking about it after they have a baby (become a parent) because they have decided that the meaning of their life is to take care of (look after) the child. In Russia, where relationships between parents and their children are strong and traditionally important, it is a very popular idea. As for me, I always thought that the only meaning of a Human being is to live a fair life, to be kind to everyone and to become better every day hence the world can become a better place.
    But some people don't try to seek an answer for that question, because they're too serious or they don't have time for that, they just live and do what they should do. Now I know that these people are right.
    There is no meaning of a life and I'm sure that it is not a sad (bad) thing.
