    Speaker natives

    I need to know the difference of "to" and "for" . This is my doubt.


    "To" is a preposition. You usually use it before expression of destination (hope that makes sense).

    example:

    I am going to the mall.

    We are going to the store.

    It can also be used to imply a verb at the end of a sentence, when the context is clear and the verb isn't necessary.

    Example:

    She wanted to go with him, but he didn't want her to (go with him) You would leave this part out because it is already implied.

    "For" is a prepostion. It is used when you want to express that something is intended to belong to someone, or something else.

    Example:

    I baked a cake for my friend.

    "For" is also used when you desire something.

    Example: I'd kill for a cold drink right now.

    I hope this wasn't too confusing!

    What is the true freedom?

    Please allow me to use food as an example.
    You go to different restaurants to try all of the different kinds of food.
    You think you are free to choose what to eat
    But that’s not true.
    You just eat want you have been served.
    They can use the duck meat, then tell you it is good quality Mutton.
    They can use any kind of cheap oil they want cooking your food but you don’t know.

    That is not the free food which I mean.
    “Free” not as in, it costs nothing
    “Free”, as in, the food is prepared the way you want it to be
    Which kind food preparation is your favorite?
    At what temperature, and for how long, can get the effect you prefer.
    Which kind of container been used to put you food in is determined by the way you want it to be presented in front of your friends and loved ones.

    This idea can also be applied to other aspects of life
    Even something you do not realize.
    For example: The computer system
    You really have very few limited options been given by Bill Gates if you use Microsoft Operation System in the office.
    If you want do something special that  the software does not support, you must to adapt to it every day after the technical support configures the program.

    So, the main idea is to be the master of your life. (good sentence:)
    You can find out a lot of things been change if it’s up to you.  look at things in a different way, if you choose to.
    The more convenient modern life, the more freedom you lose.
    DIY may cost extra time and money, but it's worth it.
    Your life will be change forever.

    Rogue One

    To call this film one of the best this year would not be an understatement.

    I’m not a huge fan of Star Wars myself (though I’ve watched all the previous series) but still enjoyed it so much.

    And If you are a Star Wars fan and the last scene doesn’t excite you, nothing will.


    Just a few very minor corrections but otherwise, very well said :)

    The meaning is, I couldn't say with certainty. As in, I couldn't say something is true, without having doubt, because I don't know whether it's true or not.

    Happinesss comes from our heart

    If you are doing something that you have passion with for, then keep going. That's where your happiness come from. My family has been poor since I was born. My mom always told us: "We don't have enough money to buy it". I was not confident because of this. My parents showed me a negative aspect of life. We even struggled with food when I was a child. There was something that more important than money. Like happiness. We were happy when we spent time together. But my parents always emphasized that we were poor. It had a huge impact on my attitude about life. I was negatived about everything. I was afraid of trying new things. I felt uncomfortable when I talked with elderly people. Later on, I started working. I figured out that I could change my mind. Now, I am trying every new things around me. I spend a lot of time to learning a language. I still need time to stand up on my feet.


    This is a beautiful entry! I appreciate the sentiment, or, meaning behind it. I'm not sure what you were trying to say in the last sentence, but "find my feet" sounds a little funny! haha. I hope I got what you were trying to say. Good work :)
