    On The Great Gatsby 's last line Im reposting this question because the title bugged out on screen for unknown reasons "So we beat on boats against the current borne back ceaselessly into the past." Isn't it so to comprehend this sentence as the current is flowing from future to the past, and we are the boats that fight against the current (to reach the future), but despite efforts are pulled back into the past? But my instructor says of the opposite, that this 'current' pulls us towards the future, and we toil our rows to progress towards the past. Personally I cannot think of a reason why my instructor comprehends this sentence as in the above, because we are 'borne back' by the current. However my instructor is quite stubborn about this matter(without giving good enough explanations that i accept as sound), so i thought to inquire on italki. Me and my instructor are neither a native english speaker.

    성장과정 및 개인특성

    성장과정 및 개인특성(개인특성은 성격의 장단점을 중점적으로 기술하세요)

    저는 프랑스인인데, 어렸을 때부터 다른 나라에서 살고 싶었습니다. 그래서 저는 영어, 스페인어 및 한국어를 열심히 공부했습니다.
    저는 호기심이 매우 많은 사람이고, 지속적으로 새로운 것을 배우고 싶습니다. 그렇게 때문에 저는 한국에서 일하는 것을 매우 좋아합니다. 왜냐하면 매일 출근할 때 동료들이랑 얘기하면서 한국어랑 한국 문화에 대해서 더 배울 수 있기 때문입니다.

    저는 새로운 것을 배우기 좋아하는데, 저는 실패하면 저 자신에게 심하게 합니다. 그래도 저는 실패하면 더 열심히 하고 싶습니다.

    --The last sentence does make sense but its kinda weird...

    Its very hard to convey the feeling of these slang-like phrases to korean so... I'll only go for kinda-sure ones 1-Stop spamming the groupchat with messages -> 메시지(Message)로 도배 하지 마 3- ain't nobody got time for that -> 그딴 거에 쓸 시간 없다 7- WTF? : 뭐야 시발 8- Throwback : 옛날 생각 나네

    Never heard of it before(im a native)... probably a made up word I THINK that it means(the meaning the user wants to deliver) a miser(, stingy person). However this is only from my impression of the word

    제노가 좋아하는 슈퍼카를 그리고 싶었지만 작은 붕붕이가..[emoji] 사장님이 말씀해주셨는데 드림이들 이곳에서 촬영할때 자기들 이니셜 초콜렛[emoji]만들었데요[emoji] 그리고 바이럴에서 이벤트하던 옹이토이도 이건물 윗층에서 촬영했다고해서 덕후투어 코스로 괜찮을듯합니다[emoji] I wanted to draw a supercar that 제노 likes, but small 붕붕이(??need some context)...[emoji] The Owner(head,manager,president, u know what i mean) told me that when 드림이들(??need context) were filming here, they made their own chocolates with initials[emoji]. Also 옹이토이 who were doing an event also filmed in upstairs this building, so it would be great for a fan-tour course[emoji]. This text is already hard to understand even to a native speaker lol Need more context to translate it better... also the writer uses a lot of made-up words that only his/her acquaintances understand...

    2016-07-31: 그 사진에서..

    방탄소년단에는 멤버 일곱명이 있어요.  (or 방탄소년단에는 일곱명의 멤버가 있어요 this is better) 

    김석진은 나이가 제일 많아요. 닉네임은 진 이에요. 진은 보컬 이에요. 그 사진에서 진 머리는 금발 이에요 그리고 검정색 티셔츠를 입고있어요. 진도 키가 크다 그리고 잘 생긴 이에요( 진은 키가 크고 잘생겼어요 this is better).

    그 사진에서 민윤기 머리는 회색 이에요 그리고 오랜지 셔츠를 입고있어요. 윤기는 진 나이가 의 예요(cant rly understand this sentence... however ive googled their ages and found out 진 is 1yr older than 윤기 so u can say that 윤기는 진 보다 한  살 어려요 which means "윤기 is 1yr younger than 진") 하지만 다른 멤버들보다는 나이가 많아요. 윤기 키가 작아요 - 아주 귀여워지요?! 윤기 닉네임은 슈가 이에요 그리고 래퍼 이에요. 저는 슈가 랩들을 많이 좋아해요.

    그 사진에서 정호석은 중심에 있어요. 머리는 갈색 이에요, 눈도 갈색 이에요. 흰색 티셔츠 하고 검정색 상의를 입고있어요. 웃는 모습이예뻐요. 행복해요. (트로피때문에. 방탄은 이겼어요!) - 호석 닉네임은 제이홉 이에요 그리고 그도 래퍼에요. 제이홉은 진와 슈가 나이가 의 예요(again, cant understand this sentence).

    그 사진에서 김남준이 제이홉 옆에 있어요. 남준 머리는 녹색 이에요 그리고 흰색 셔츠를 입고있어요. 남준 키와 진 키가 비슷해요. 키가 커요! 남준 닉네임은 랩 몬스터 이에요. 저는 그 닉네임을 안좋아해요.. (하지만 남준도 그 닉네임을 안좋아해요. 요즘 보통 랩몬 아니면 RM 써요.) 랩몬은 방탄의 리더 이에요. 랩몬도 랩에 아주 재능이 있어요. 저는 듣는 많이 좋아해요(cant understand the sentence, need more context). 랩몬와 제이홉 나이가 똑같아요.


    Ur note is kinda long lol Ill just stop here... hope somebody comes and completes the correction

    As a native speaker but non-literature major I think these kinda subtle grammatical questions questions are rly hard to answer About the former one, 처럼, I think it does go with nouns. ex> 나비처럼 : like a butterfly, 나비(noun)+처럼 About the latter one, I think its mostly used with adjectives and adverbs, but also can be used with verbs. (For -게, you shouldnt blindly trust the stuff im saying cuz im no grammar master, Im just explaining with 'feeling'. Maybe other guys might give a better answer)
