Hello, my name is James and I come from the UK. I have been teaching myself German since 2018 and want to finally start to talk. Also, if you know German (even if you are not a native) and want to improve your English we could do a language exchange. Hallo, mein Name is James und ich komme aus dem Vereinigten Königreich. Seit 2018 lerne ich Deutsch und ich will endlich anfangen Deutsch zu sprechen. Außerdem, wenn du Deutsch sprichst (eben wenn es nicht deine Muttersprache ist) und du deine englische Sprachkentnis verbessern willst dann können wir vielleicht einen Sprachtausch machen. (Sag mir Bescheid falls ich einen Fehler gemacht habe.)

Du sprichst wirklich schon ganz gut Deutsch und hast mich auch sehr gut verstanden. Wenn du dich an meine Tipps hälst und wir regelmäßig üben, wirst du schon schnell noch flüssiger sprechen und auch weniger Fehler machen :o)

Ich bin wirklich manchmal überrascht, was du für Wörter kennst und manchmal musst du mir sogar aushelfen das richtige Wort zu finden, wenn ich mal etwas vergessen. Sehr gut und weiter so ;)

    Ich lerne Deutsch, denn ich studiere Germanistik an der Universität. Ich mag mein Studium, obwohl ich im ersten Jahr bin. Als ich zur Oberschule gegangen bin, habe ich Deutsch in der Schule gelernt. Meine Deutschlehreren waren sehr nett und ich mochte sie. Nach dem Deutschkurs, sind Freundinnen von mir und meine Lehreren gekommen und wir sprachen in Deutsch. Ich habe sehr schlect gesprochen. Ich sagte „Heute habe ich nach Schule... Nein, nein. Heute bin ich zur Schule gegangen... Nein, nein. gekommen." Ich sprache langsam und machte viele Fehler aber sie sagten mir „Du sprichst gut Deutsch." Deshalb konnte ich mehr Deutsch lernen. Jetzt kann ich drei Sprachen - Koreansich, Englisch und Deutsch. Ich bin glücklich, obwohl mein Englisch und mein Deutsch nicht perfekt sind. Meine Welt is weiter als die meinsten Leute, die nur eine Sprache sprechen können.

    Heute war ein komischer Tag: am Morgen war es bewölkt und nicht zu warm. Plötzlich wurde es am Nachmittag sehr heiß und der Himmel war blau und ohne Wolken. Jetzt ist es sehr windig und es würde mir nicht überraschen, wenn es in der Nacht regnen würde!

    "Laugh" can be a verb or a noun it is a sound or action made by one person. examples: The boy had a high pitched laugh. (noun) I laugh every time I see that show. (verb) "Laughter" is more associated with the action of many people examples: At the park, I heard the sound of laughter everywhere. The children's laughter was a joy to hear.

    Hello Adiya.

    Here are some corrections.

    I tried to make keep as much of what you said as possible. Most of what I have added are just articles and prepositions eg. the, a, of, on etc. These words don't contain much meaning on their own but play a grammatical role.

    There was only one small part I could not understand so well done!

    About the first season of this year:

    The news about the new corona virus outbreak, which started at the end of January, all of the first cases were registered in Mainland <s>of</s> China and spread almost all around the world. It’s not just China's problem. Therefore, everyone who lives on earth should care about it and be serious about this situation, and <s>to</s> contribute to our possibility to survive (from the afraid within short time - <em>not sure here what you want to say</em>). My idea is, we must now merge to overcome the danger of the virus because a group of people always has a greater force and a chance to solve any problem compared to individuals. My next words to talk to human beings of the world are don’t discriminate somebody based on where someone is born or where someone lives. I look forward to the day when we <s>to</s> congratulate <s>to</s> each other after avoiding the virus from all cities and countries.

    I would be very grateful someone who helps me correction,

    This is very well written with just a few minor mistakes and one clause that didn't quite make sense.

    Does talent really exist or you can achieve anything by working hard? This is the question. As for me, believing in talent is a popular misconception and some people use it as a justification for their laziness. 
    I began to reflect on that when I met people who think that some things that I know are just easy for me to understand because of my abilities. And it seems to me, they don't really listen to me when I try to explain that some of my knowledge is only the result of my purposeful practice. I think any person can reach their objectives if they want. I never thought that I would speak English and understand other people but I had a clear goal and was determined to fulfil it. 
    I really want people to understand that. Sometimes we think how stupid we are and we never can go beyond our average skills but we need to go the extra mile to get something that we didn't have before.

    Hello Natalya. These seem very good. Some of these sentences include complex constructions but most of the time they are perfect. 3. You need an article before TV show. If in a previous sentence you had mentioned the TV show use "the" if it hasn't been introduced use "a." 4. This sentence does make grammatical sense but "The television was on, but nobody was watching it" would be better. 6. Another article needed "We had a chat..." 8. Use "were" instead of "was." "How fast were you driving..." 10. I was scared and I started to run.

    I am also a native English speaker and can also say they are all possible sentences. The first two are more polite as they acknowledge a different possibility. The third and fourth are more commanding. They are orders. If you wanted to be even more polite you could add "I think it would be better this way." by adding "I think" you are saying this is your opinion. Let me know if you have more questions.

    You can say that. Math (or maths in British English) is not capitalised. Only languages such as French or English are capitalised because they are proper nouns. You can say "The first period..." or "The first class ...."

    You need "I have" see how it also matches the verb in the question. Use "have" for something you did in the past but continue to do in the present, like exercise - present perfect (like you said.) Use "did" for something done in the past and now completed - past simple. Here are some examples of "have" and "did." Imagine a friend went on holiday to Russia. You could ask "did you enjoy your trip." They might answer "I did enjoy my trip." Now imagine you ask a businessman who often travels to Russia. You could say "Have you been to Russia this year." He could answer "I have been to Russia this year." Here are some more examples comparing the present perfect with past simple. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/grammar/british-grammar/past-simple-or-present-perfect
