    If I want to stay fit without going to the gym, I must work out at home regularly, walking or running at least three times a week. I think an essential action is to eat healthy..

    Depende que tipo de email es. Es con familia or amigos o profesional? "Sincerely," es muy común para todos con amigos, y familia también "cheers" es una frase de que la gente de inglaterra usa mucho. Para emails profesionales yo uso "In kindest regaras" o simple "regards" o "kindest regards". Aqui esta una lista de unos de otros "Best, Best regards, Best wishes, Fond regards, Kind regards, Regards, Sincerely, Sincerely yours, Thank you, With appreciation, With gratitude, Yours sincerely, Yours truly," Para más información. Se llama "salutations" en ingles para esta tipa de frase.

    Hola. Usually after the gym we will just be tired or be sore. ( Estoy cansado o estoy dolorido) You are correct that suffer is too strong of a word. Also the Spanish dish is made "with"...... Hope that helps. :)

    Please acknowledge receipt of this letter. - Yes this means please let the sender know when you have received the letter. Always acknowledge your sources at the end of an essay. - In this sentence acknowledge means "give credit to" your sources for their work. He didn't even acknowledge my presence. - He didn't look at you or speak to you. It was as if you weren't even there.

    1.My house is one river apart his house. - My house is one river away from his house. 2. His house and my house are one river apart. - Perfect 3. His house is on the other side of the river/across the river. If I want to visit him, I have to take a ferry to get across the river. It takes me about 30 minutes to get across the river by ferry. - This is great. You could say other side of the river or across the river both would be correct. Good job!

    Very good job only a few minor corrections. 1. Watching too much television is bad for children. - television shouldn't be capitalised 2. His only hobby is to garden. - His only hobby is gardening. We use the ing form of verbs when we are using them as nouns - painting, swimming, acting, dancing and so on 3. She stopped crying and looked up at her father. - Perfect 4. I am used to searching for information on the internet. - Perfect 5. I decided to work out. - Perfect 6. You have enough intellect to solve the question. - Perfect 7. We found a study group to take part in - We found a study group to join. Your sentence makes sense but we generally try not to end a sentence in a preposition. ("in") 8. They advised me to be on time. - Perfect 9. He brought his wallet out to show me the picture of his family. - Perfect 10. It rained so much that I couldn't go fishing. / It rained too much to go fishing. Both are great! 11. I am glad to meet you. - Perfect - but in the US it is more common to say "happy to meet you". or It is "nice to meet you." 12. I agreed to clean the kitchen. - Perfect 13. She denied that she cheated on the test. - Perfect- - 14. I reject rescheduling the meeting. - I refuse to reschedule the meeting. Not sure on this one there are several ways to say it depending on your exact meaning. 15. People should learn from their mistakes to make progress. - Perfect Great job! Hope this helps!

    This one is questionable but I would lean towards tenía because you had it and used it over a period of time, rather than just a a single time. Usually imperfecto refers to things that we did, had, or were for a period of time and I think this would qualify. But I am waiting to see what other responses are as well. ;)

    This simply means to know a lot of information about something. Before you vote in an election you should read about the candidates and know as much as possible before making your decision. This makes you well informed about the candidates.

    Hi - I hope this helps. 1.The least I could do is make sure you boys had a decent meal TO look forward to in the morning. ( They are looking forward to the meal. Meal is the noun in this case. The sentence structure is a little different. 2.We are at a wake. after one's funeral, the person's NEIGHBOURS came to pay their respects. how come you call the memorial ceremony " a/the wake"? - I have been taught the this comes from Latin and it is similar to word "awake" as in not sleeping. The people stay up with the family to comfort them. (Also I changed "Neighbourhood" to "Neighbours" The neighbourhood is really the part of the city and the people there will pay "their respects".
