- (I've rewritten this instead of giving individual corrections. Hope you find it useful!In English, instructions are usually written addressed to the second person ("you") and not in the first-person as you originally wrote.)Can someone correct my English?Hi, I am Hiroko, a Japanese mother learning English. I've written English instructions on how to wear kimono for a kimono dresser friend (do you mean "a friend who wants to learn how to wear a kimono")?. Can someone correct my English? Please let me know if you find anything awkward↓“How to wear kimono”First, put on “tabi”. Tabi are big toe socks worn with “zori”. There are metal tabs and cotton hooks on a tabi sock. After putting your foot into a tabi, place the tabs into the correct cotton hooks.Then, put on “nagajyuban”. “Nagajyuban” is kimono underwear. Make sure to fold the left sideover the right side. Don’t do it the other way! Right side over left is how to wrap a corpse.Now put on the kimono. Slip the sleeves of the “nagajyuban“ into the sleeves of the kimono. The hems should be just above the feet. Tie the kimono in place just above the hips with a “koshihimo”. Pat down the top half and create a neat single layer of material over the koshihimo. Tie the kimono in place just below the bust with another “koshihimo”. Now you need a “datejime”. “Datejime” is a wide sash under the “Obi”. I will wrap thedatejime over the koshihimo.Now I will wrap the “Obi” over the “datejime” (an “Obi” is a large outer belt). You need to leave enough length to make a bow with and wrap the Obi about two times around your waist. Tie the Obi together tightly and make a bow in front. Then slide the bow to your back. Tie the “obi” with an “obijime”. You're done.0 votedDecember 29, 20191
- “I want to be treated as you treat anyone else.” I'd prefer "I want you to treat me as you would treat anybody else," or "I want to be treated just as you would treat anybody else." "I don't treat you differently than anyone else." Some speakers prefer "differently from", but I feel that's regional. "I want to be treated just like everybody else is treated." Feels ok, "I want to be treated just *as* everybody else is treated." ('as' instead of 'like') is what I'd probably say myself.0 votedNovember 20, 20190
I'd provide the context along with words and not just isolated words themselves. I'm also not a beginner in these languages so I can tell if someone is providing me with material that is not appropriate.
Military vocabulary, scientific terms, business terms, specialised food terms.
