Hey! My name is Evan Mildenberger! I was born among the mountains and trees in beautiful Vancouver, Canada! I started learning Spanish in school and that's what got me hooked on languages. I've since started focusing on learning Persian, the official language of Iran, because there are so many people from that country living here that I want to talk to! In addition to learning foreign languages, I've spent the past 8 years teaching others as part of volunteer work, both in English, Spanish and Persian. I like to break language down logically, but I try to avoid the unnecessary grammar terms. I also try to instil proper pronunciation using what I know of phonetics and the IPA! I hope to talk to you soon!

    It is interesting when it comes to your daily routine because everyone has their daily routine. However, it is different from each other life. I usually wake up at approximately 7:30 or 8:00 am and occasionally at 6 am; it depends on the situation. After waking up, I typically take a shower, which finally wakes me up. I used to go to the gym in the morning, but I do not go nowadays. Additionally, sometimes I sit to study in the morning. Moreover, I go to the university four times a week, and I go there around 9 am and come back home at about 2 pm. After coming back home, I eat lunch with my family and rest for a couple of hours. I watch YouTube videos or chat with my friends during the rest, or sometimes I watch movies or TV series. One of my favourite TV shows is "13 reasons why," and I love to watch "family guy" also. In the afternoon, around 5 o'clock, I often go for a walk with my best friend, when she can not go. I sit for study in the evening and finish around 10 or 11 o'clock and have my dinner. After finishing my dinner, I go to bed and think about what I have done during the day. While lying on the bed, I listen to music and fall asleep.

    It is interesting when it comes to your daily routine > It is interesting when it comes to our daily routine {you're included in the answer so 1-st person plural is better} everyone has their daily routine > everyone has their own daily routine {you're emphasizing each one having distinct routines} it is different from each other life -> it is different from each other's lives {"life" is the property of "each other" so the genitive case is necessary; it must be plural since you're talking about more than one} the university -> university {the general null article is used here as an expression}

    It should be noted that saved Microsoft Word files that have been deleted from a computer cannot easily be recovered nor can the recovery of deleted data be guaranteed. However, there is an organization called "PITS" that does this sort of recovery. If your Word files are very important to you, you should contact them, but I warn you that their fees are quite expensive. Nevertheless, they are able to recover a lot of deleted data. Perhaps they will be able to recover your Word files. But I must say, based on my own experience, that I don't think that they will be able to recover your deleted Word files. Companies like this are very rarely found, but this is one that I know of.

    Both are grammatically correct. But certain expressions are used more than others and thus appear more natural. I personally think using "in" sounds better from my experience hearing it. It's like how we would say, "I'm covered in mosquito bites" more than "I'm covered with mosquito bites.", at least in my conversations with Canadians. "In" might convey an idea of depth where as "with" could be more shallow. So that might influence which one you think is more appropriate.

    Your sentences are grammatically correct. But as someone has mentioned, we are not very direct when we are trying to seem polite. So "Can I apply for / I would like to apply for this position" are more polite since it doesn't appear like you believe you expect to get the position.

    The first option is correct. "Instead of" shows that Jim is the recipient of the message and Oliver is not. You can't know how any of them feel about it without more written information or without non-verbal cues in a spoken conversation.

    I think the second example should use a comma for the same reason that the first one uses it. It shows that you're reordered the clauses in the sentence. "As" is being used like "because" and starts a dependent clause. You show that you moved the primary or independent clause / idea to the end by putting a comma between the two clauses. In short, commas are used whenever you combine or reorder simple ideas so that you can see what the main ideas are.

    The sentence would be grammarically correct without the comma, or else you can use "that" in plave of the comma.

    When it comes to words like "interesting" vs "interested", the adjectives that end in "ed" have the idea of being in that state whereas the "ing" ones are the source of that condition. "She was interesting (the source / cause) so I became interested (the state / effect). In order to recognized a past tense verb vs an adjective, do two things. 1) Remove the "ed" and see if the word still make sense as a verb. If not, it's probably only an adjective. 2) Look at the location of the word in the sentence. Every sentence needs at least one verb, and it usually follows a subject. So you can tell by how the word is being used.
