大家好！我叫力偉。我住在美國紐約州。英文是我的母語。我有語言學專業的學士學位，因為我對語言很感興趣。但是現在語言只是愛好，跟我的工作沒有什麼關係。我希望可以改變這個情況，所以我考慮去台灣教英文。因此我想提高我的中文水平。我們互相幫助吧！（如果你是大陆人，用简体字没问题！） 為什麼要去台灣？有許多原因，比如：我已經會用中文表達基本的概念。我想搬到一個比較熱的地方。這裡冷死了！還有我吃素，聽說在台灣很容易吃素。對我來說這很重要，迎合吃素人的地方挺少的。

    Mediti por Komencantoj

    Hodiaŭ mi komencis legi novan tre interesan libron. La libro nomigas nomiĝas 'Mediti por Komencanti Komencantoj'. Mi kredas, ke mediti devus esti grava parto de la vivo de ĉiuj. Nuntempe, oni provas esti ekonomie sukcesa, kaj oni forgesas manĝigi ankaŭ la spiriton. Mi kredas, ke nia civilizacio povus havi pli bonan mondon se mediti estus pli praktikata. Mediti alportas ĝojon kaj pacon al la vivo, tial mi provos uzi tiun ĉi libron por lerni mediti.

    Yes, "skies" definitely has a poetic feel. Of course, there is only one sky, so it doesn't mean more than one sky. It just makes it sound more majestic and grandiose.

    This is just an irregularity of the language. We don't have a standard contraction for "am not", so in the question "aren't I?" (and only in that question), we use the form "aren't" with the first person pronoun. Some people prefer "am I not?" because they find it strange to use those two words together. In fact, there is a word that is historically a contraction of "am not": "ain't". But it is now seen as substandard. Only in informal speech will you hear "I ain't" and "ain't I?", and it is no longer just a substitute for "am not". You'll also hear this word used to replace "is not" and "are not": "I ain't", "you ain't", "she ain't", "we ain't", "they ain't", "that guy with the weird hat ain't"...

    In this context, "bearing" means "effect".

    "J'ai un ami qui m'aide" = "Tengo un amigo que me está ayudando" o "Tengo un amigo que me ayuda". Si quieres decir que tu amigo te está ayudando en este momento, puedes decir: "J'ai un ami qui est en train de m'aider."

    Grammatically, there is nothing wrong with them. However, the sentence "I haven't been in good health since I smoked" strikes me as strange. This sentence means you used to be in good health, back when you used to smoke, but you're not in good health now that you've quit smoking. A more logical sentence would be "I haven't been in good health since I started smoking".

    I think we like to express these kinds of statements as hypotheticals because we don't want it to sound like we're making too many assumptions. It means essentially "(If you're interested in what I think), I would recommend..."

    "I don't believe a word you are saying" is the correct phrase. It would not be totally grammatically incorrect to say "any", and people would understand what you mean, but this is a fixed phrase, we always say "a word". If you want to emphasize it, you can say "I don't believe a single word you're saying" ＝ 你说的每一个词我都不相信。 "by the weekend" = 周末以前
