    東京に住んでいる時 七年間前、東京都三鷹市に住んでいました。その間、とても便利なアパートに住んでいましたが、三鷹駅に歩いて行くと、十分かかりました。吉祥寺駅も近くて、歩いて二十分かかりました。井の頭公園も近いから、よく散歩して、写真を撮りました。吉祥寺駅のまわりにたくさんラーメン屋があったので、いっぱい食べてしまいました。それでも、日本食は健康にいいし、常に歩いたから、太ったわけじゃありませんでした。本当にその所にもう一度戻りたいんです。

    My First Trip to America

    I'll be taking a first trip to the United States from Nov. 9th to the 23rd.
    I'm very excited about the trip now.
    Last Friday I purchased the round-trip flight tickets from Osaka, Japan to New York via Beijing at for 58,800 JPY (=approximately 574 USD).
    That was incredibly cheap.
    I'll be staying in a small town of in New Jersey during the first 7 to 8 days of the trip.
    However, I haven't decided where I'm going to visit during the rest of trip.
    I'll do it until the departure date. (I'm not sure what you mean to say here. Is it that wherever you decide to go, you will stay there until you leave?)

    I don't think I have much to add to Sebastian's very through analysis, but I would add one thing. Definitely in the case of (1) and (2) and to some extent (3) (depending on context,) these constructions would not typically be used in either spoken language or casual writing. They sound like something that would appear in very formal writing, or in a narrative. (1) sounds like it came out of a fairy tale or fantasy story and (2) might appear in a narrative as "And suddenly, there appeared a ship on the horizon." Perhaps the latter could appear in spoken language if you are telling a story in a compelling or poetical way. This is perhaps why the construction is so restricted, as Sebastian described. Constructions that are not familiar to us from everyday speech and writing will be hard to process unless they are part of a set phrase like "Neither a borrower nor a lender be" or the meaning is clear from context, as Sebastian described. Unfortunately, there are often no set rules or if there are, well I guess you will have to figure them out for your thesis! English especially has been beaten up over time and there are a lot of weird little things left over. Let me know if you have any more questions! I find this stuff fascinating.

    Please correct these sentences.

    I heard that you put all of the products in one box, no matter which customer those items go to.
    Please don't do that.
    Please use separate boxes for each customer.
    Please don't mix all of the items in a one box.

    Thank you
