Hi! My name is Jyadon Williams. I've been studying Japanese since 2016. But I don't have a lot of confidence in my ability to speak. I lived in Japan last year for a study abroad experience where I got to listen to a lot of Japanese, but I was so nervous to speak. Now, I've returned to the States, and I have a job interview with a Japanese American Company, and I want to prepare !

    My English name

    My English name is Jenny White. Some people have asked me, "Why are you called that?" It has a story. My English name comes from a (book?) in middle school. A little girl picked up a wallet (I'm assuming this word is wallet) someone else dropped. She was waiting until the owner of the wallet came back, even though she was going to be late to school. But her teacher and classmates all said she was a good girl. This little girl's name was Jenny White. I remember that my teacher let me read this book. She said very good and asked me, "Do you have an English?" I said no and she said, "Ok, now you're English name is Jenny White."

    The highlighted sentences/parts need a little more context but I didn't want to add to your story.

    [ Katsudon 126 ]

    Would you mind correcting my essay? If you were me, how would
    you go about writing it?
    Which part should I describe in detail? I hope my explanations are clear. I hope you can understand this.

    My favorite food is Katsudon/This is a complete sentence but if you wanted to connect this sentence to the next one you could say "My favorite food is Katsudon and it is quite a popular Japanese food( maybe try using the word dish instead), in particular with the men. I’ve been eating it since I was a boy. It is a bowl of rice topped with a deep-fried pork cutlet, egg, vegetable, and condiments.

    I eat it once a week at the Katsuya restaurant, which is a chains restaurant in Japan. Surprisingly, there are restaurants in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Thailand.( I'm not sure what you were trying to say here. Did you mean that Katsuya is in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Thailand?)  

    This restaurant serves chicken foods as well. I like that their eggs are soft and juicy. They have a nice aroma. 

    I guess that the food is getting much more popular many more throughout the next year. The food memes me getting full.(lol)


    Hi. My name is Jyadon. I think that you did a good job with details but you need to be more specific and have more nouns in your sentences instead or using "it" all the time, just so that the reader or the person you're talking to can clearly understand what you're talking about. I suggest that you learn a little more about pronouns and their plural forms. With more practice, I'm sure that you'll be able to convey your thoughts about your favorite restaurant and dish without any problems. : )

    hello

    Hello. i'm André Luiz. I'm 37 years old. I'm from Brazil. I have 2 kids. One son who is 14 years old and a daughter who is 4 years old. I'm married to Camilla. I'm learning English. My English is very bad. I'm finding new friends.

    thanks a lot for help me with my vocabulary and grammar.


    Hi there! I'm Jyadon. I just have a few comments. You need to capitalize the beginning of sentences which you do do sometimes. "I've" is okay in a sentence like, "I've got to go," or "I've never done that." I've does mean I have but it's more correct to say, "I have two kids" instead of "I've two kids."    With means to be accompanied by, so you can't say I have a son with 14 years-old. It just doesn't make sense. It makes more sense to say, "One son who is 14 years-old." Same when saying the age of your daughter. 

    It is also okay to say, "I am married with Camilla," but it sounds more natural to say, "I am married to Camilla."

    And for your last sentence the correct way is, "I'm finding new friends." You are in the act of finding, which is why that "ing" is important.

    Questions

    Hi, there

    1)
    What's the difference between a coffee-and-sugar cane plantation" and a "coffee- and sugar cane-plantation" and "a coffee and sugar cane plantation"

    2) Do you say "The truck is carrying meat and other food or foods"?


    Thank you

    Hi. I'm Jyadon. I'm not sure what the difference between those three are... I've never heard of a coffee and sugarcane plantation. But if it does exist, I'm sure it doesn't matter if you have dashes in between then. A "coffee and sugar cane plantation" is fine. And to answer your second question, you can say both. Both is entirely okay. : )

    About me (learning english and japanese)

    Hi everyone, I'm Raphael and I'm from Brazil. Like most people I have dreams and obviously I'd like to achieve them someday. First of all I want to be able to speak English naturally and confidently.. In this moment I'm studying "Information Systems" at university and well I'm going to finish my studies in the next year (I hope it happens!!).

    However I've been studying English for at least 6 months and unfortunately I never had any type of discipline and I wasn't serious about that. But now it'll changes, because I'll study English every single day with patience, discipline and determination. Moreover I say the same for Japanese language that I've started to study some days ago.


    Hi! I'm Jyadon. Your English is very good! I just have a few comments. You have to capitalize the names of languages so English not english. Also, you had one spelling error but 'unfortunately' is still a hard word for me to spell sometimes lol. And it's more natural to say, "I hope it happens," not ,"I wish it happens." It just sounds better although hoping and wishing are relatively the same thing. But great work and I hope your approach towards learning English and Japanese work out well for you!

    Please check for me (Thanks)

    Why I'm learning English?

    First of all, I'm kind of a language lover. I love to learn new language and be able to speak fluently with other people.
    I feel really good when I can discover new cultures through languages.
    Second English is a universal language, you can go anywhere and you will find someone who speaks English and he can give some information if you ask.
    Finally it's a brain exercise when you try to learn new languages and get new skills. But it's really fun.
