Although all three would be correct, and completely understood by any English speaker, I’d probably say I’m most comfortable with the first one. (B1)

An email draft

This is an email that I am going to send to my fellow students. Could you please check its tone and expressions? Thank you.

Dear all,

I hope this email finds you well.

My name is XXX, and I serve as a student rep representing all the PhD students in Asian Studies this semester. My duty is to collect feedback concerning your experiences studying and developing at our school and our university. Later, I will advance forward your opinions to university staff, negotiate with them, and help tackle problems to benefit you more.

Therefore, if you feel like sharing ideas or bringing up questions about academic support, learning and research, pastoral support, facilities and community, or more, please contact me. Facebook contact (XXX), dropping me emails, or meeting in person, whichever suits you will be great!

Thank you for reading and good luck with your semester!

Best wishes,
XXX

She literally stumbled on her towel, and started to fall, again, literally. However, even tho she had cheerleading skills (And therefore good balance), she STILL fell anyway. TO STUMBLE across something means to accidentally find it (not to literally stumble). I hope this helps?!

“You got it” means 1.that the 2nd person in the conversation understands what the 1st person is saying, or 2.The 1st person is telling 2nd person that they “can do it”. You got it?

2. They got into it pretty bad sounds like an argument or a fight. Ironically, “they got into it pretty good” can mean the same thing! 1. Any adverb connotating something negative would work, such as bad clash, angry feud, horrendous quarrel, etc.

English(please)

Hi, there

Does it sound odd to say (at a toll booth) "The booth three booths over from the one we are at free/open/clear"? What could I say?

Thank you

simplest: The third booth over is open.

Headache of so much English

This week I felt the first headache of hearing so much English. I am enjoying this experience, but when I am in an environment with many people speaking at the same time it is VERY difficult to understand them and I get a headache (laughs).
I thought that I knew a little English, but here (USA) is totally different!

Very good Vanessa! I feel the same way about the Spanish I am learning!
