    How do you translate "monter aux levres" in English? The expression appeared in this phrase: "..elle avait de la peine a retenir un certain mot bien francais qui lui montait aux levres, et faisait semblant de ne pas avoir entendu". I didn't find the expression in the dictionnary. Any ideas?

    It's correct. I returned from the U.S. this morning. ( now it's the afternoon/ the evening) I have (just) returned from the U.S. this morning. ( the time period isn't finished, it's still morning )

    You've done very well! 

    I think there are some things you need to pay attention to, though :)

     

    Ordinary day

    Today is an ordinary day,I have spent a lot of time studying English, I have read several English articles. Also,I have listened to music, I have done some housework, and I had an afternoon nap. The weather was sunny, very lovely. Now it's cloudy, it will rain in the evening, I think. 
    Of course, the day isn't over, but I like this day, I like spending time with my parents, it's nice. I love my family and my dad and mum, I think they are the best parents in the world. I thank them for giving me great love! I love my life, I'm satisfied.

     

    - I think that Present Perfect would be more appropriate because the time period isn't finished 

    - Pay attention to the gerund after certain verbs ( like ) or verbs with preposition ( thank someone for )

    - To form the superlative, the compared term ( adjective or adverb - "best" is your case) must be preceded by the definite article "the"

     

    I'm here if you have any questions ;)

    Voici ma version: 

     

    "Première note: Présentation.

    Je me présente, parce que je veux apprendre le français.

    Je vis au Brésil, je suis mariée, j'ai 45 ans, deux enfants, je suis une formatrice (?)  en psychologie clinique, autodidacte dans le Feng Shui, poète et blogueur. J'ai mis de la sensibilité et mes connaissances pour les œuvres d'art en cours d'exécution en MDF, découpage et  broderie en ruban de satin. J'aime écouter de la musique, faire du jardinage et la cuisine, lire, décorer, créer, enseigner et apprendre. Je tiens à enseigner la langue portugaise, mais j'aime la langue française et je voudrais l'apprendre, alors je voudrais échanger des connaissances entre la culture française et brésilienne. "
