Right mistakes
When I started learning English and when I had success I started to notice some mistakes which were admitted by Americans. For example in one song I heard that singer sang My anaconda don't. Why didr he use don't? In school teachers say that right will be My anaconda doesn't. But Russian people can't correct American people in English. Of course I heard such mistakes more then once. In another song I heard where you was? In another what he say? In the third singer sang Ya a stand up or is ya in your chiar right now? Why a stand up and why is ya (ya means you I guess). Of course I don't use such forms but for me it's very interesting to understand why they did use such forms and can I use it with my friends? Or is it too bad and it can be used only by real American people? Thank you for all your answers. They all are very important for me.
P.S. In Russian any deviations aren't available and they will look unnatural. I'm waiting for your answers and checking!0 votedDecember 29, 20161Walking
This morning I got up early, I didn’t oversleep as I did yesterday, so I didn’t miss the time to go for a walk.
Anyway, I decided to stick to my routine and I went for my two-hour walk in the park. I left my house at 6:20 and returned at 8:23.
At the beginning, the temperature was warm, but after sometime I had to take off my shirt and drank a lot of water. Usually I carry with me a banana and some grapes, because after the first hour I need to eat something to keep up my level of energy .
There are only two days left before I reach my goal that is to walk 295 kilometers this month.
After that, I will have to establish new goals for the following monthsVery good !! :)

After starting playing Starcraft 2 once again (as I mentioned previously, in another entry), I've started to think about the games which helped me to develop my English, and some of them were Resident Evil series games, specially on the first editions, in the time its genre was so called ''Survival Horror''. There is plenty of written information on those games which can be used for learning, like files you can find throughout the game which contain instructions for use of certain equipments, personal notes (of the characters), letters and other types of written information. There are also various simple questions like ''will you take the Crank?'', simple information like ''It's locked from the other side'' (when you try to open a door) and you can read a short briefing about an item or an object when you check them out. There are also several items on the game which can help you to increase your vocabulary, like lighters, pipes and cords, and some conversations which can be useful for improving your listening. In that time, when I used to play it, I was a child, and I was only interested in playing and I didn't realize how helpful it would be for my learning. Nowadays, I can see it was truly helpful and I have no doubt that it can be used for didactic porposes.0 votedDecember 29, 20161
