Qué bien verte de nuevo Ffi. Como siempre de un comentario de lo más espontáneo sobre tu experiencia en el supermercado surgió una conversación divertidísima sobre algunas de nuestras experiencias poniendo reclamaciones por servicios que dejaban mucho que desear. Gracias por la estupenda conversación y ¡feliz semana!

Qué bien verte de nuevo Ffi. Me lo he pasado en grande charlando sobre negatividad, pesimismo, saltamontes y grillos. Ahora bien, soy muy optimista en cuanto a tu capacidad para comunicarte en español con naturalidad :) Buen trabajo y ¡feliz semana!

Ya te he dicho esto ante Ffi, pero si hay algo que me gusta de nuestras conversaciones es que nunca tengo ni idea de qué vamos a hablar, pero siempre sé que va a ser una conversación original, para nada repetitiva y de buena calidad. Por ejemplo, creo que hasta ahora no habíamos hablado de las características de los bebés recién nacidos, pero hoy lo hemos hecho como si tal cosa. Enhorabuena por tu buen progreso y ¡feliz semana!

Bueno Ffi, como decimos por aquí, las cosas no son como empiezan, sino como acaban. Y creo que no habríamos podido terminar mejor, con una conversación desternillante en la que no hemos dejado títere con cabeza (especialmente los pobres zurdos, y lo digo por alusiones 🙄😁). Gracias por la calidad de tu español y de tu humor. ¡Feliz semana!

    Puedes corregir mis frases. Muchas gracias. Yo sabía que quisiera ir Quería evitar que estuvieran decepcionados No quería que el perro rompiera el florero.  Nos decían que no pudieran ir Quizás prefieras su corte de pelo mejor antes pero no necesitas decirle. No pensaba que tuvieras razón No pensaba que pasara Era importante que no la viera

    Traduccion letras: No sé cómo Esta cosa terrible pasó Mi casa está lejos ahora Y mi vida ha cambiado Ella acribilló mis esperanzas Y me dejó gritando Deambulando en mis pensamientos Caminando sin sueño Llevo esta historia Se acabó mi vida 
 Pero querida te olvidaré Tu memoria morirá Por qué tengo que pagar? Dime por qué tengo que llorar? Intento a ser un buen hombre
 Ahora no tengo nada que hacer
 Solo di mi pasado 
 Estoy solo con este amigo Estamos entrelazado juntos En una prueba/lucha? (struggle?) Solamente bebo a veces
 Una buena botella 
 Estoy completamente desarmado Estoy sin blanca
 No sé que depara mañana 
 Pierdo los estribos por como están las cosas Ahora parto peras de mi familia 
Ella jugaba caos conmigo
 Y yo fallaba en mi deber

 Con razón que el ardid falló 
Renuncio a ella como perdida 
 Soy cantante artista 
 En una flor de juventud Ella me expulsó, eso es la verdad 
 Cumpliremos nuestra promesa cara

    I would say "excuse" is more commonly used in everyday speech. In both examples I would use "excuse". Pardon to me is a bit more formal/old-fashioned for example people would be pardoned by the king/queen in the past. Or in a more official capacity for example presidents can "pardon" someone that went to prison.

    It's an informal phrase that isn't necessarily grammatically correct. "I will take first watch" would perhaps be the correct way to say it, in future tense. People often say "I got" to insist on doing an action themselves so if they insist on paying for someone in a restaurant, they would say "I got it." even if they haven't paid yet.

    Neat here has the meaning of tidy and well organised. The idea in 1 is that we can't categorise people with simple definitions because people are complicated with different parts to their personality. The idea of "neat little boxes" is just a phrase used to talk about defining/labelling/categorising people and that it doesn't make sense to do so. In 2 they are saying a similar thing that because people are all different and complex that a varied approach of leadership is necessary instead of "putting people in boxes." That would be like saying "Person A is always quiet and shy so they should always be categorised with other similar people that are also quiet and shy".

    Neat can have several meanings. Sometimes it means tidy (not messy), good, clever/simple. In this context it could mean "good" or 'skilful' like you said or just that the workmanship has been done in a 'neat' way so with care and precision (not in a messy way). In other contexts 'neat' can mean that something is clever or simple for example "that's a neat idea"=that's a clever and simple idea.

    To be honest I've never heard "flash into flames" used. "Burst into flames" is an expression often used which means that something catches fire suddenly. So "And all the vegetation all over the world where that happened would burst into flames" meaning all the vegetation would catch fire/begin to burn.

    I would say the second sounds more natural and is more a set expression: 'to devote oneself to something' in the context of a pursuit/hobby/job etc. Example: "He devoted himself to his work and never missed a day" I would use attach more as an adjective with people/animals/objects rather than a practice such as art. Examples: "Tom was very attached to his dog Bella". "Tom was very attached to his paintings" (object rather than the act of painting) "He became very attached to her"=meaning he likes her a lot

    When used as prepositions, they have different meanings.  As + noun means ‘in the role of’ Like + noun means ‘similar to’ or ‘in the same way as’. As your friend, I suggest you go. (meaning I am your friend) As a teacher, I have a responsibility to care for my students (meaning I am a teacher) Like my neighbours, I’m getting tired of the noise (I am not my neighbours but I have a similar opinion) When it comes to comparisons: ’Like’ is generally used and is more informal so I would use ‘like’ to avoid mistakes. When we are talking about appearance/behaviour, we always use ‘like’ She has brown hair like me He worked at the restaurant like me This village looks like a fairytale I treated him as my best friend//I treated him like my best friend (conjunction)
