    Winter Ski

    I was born and spent my childhood near the sea. I love the sea, but when I saw the mountains <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">in</s>(for the) first time it became my passion(,) especially winter mountains. Black, white and grey <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">color</s>(colors) of winter <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">is</s>(are) amazing. I <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">realy</s>(really) like active rest. So, my favorite kind of active rest is winter ski. I don`t have a talent <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">to</s>(for) this kind of sport. Who <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">love the skis</s>(loves to ski) like me?

    Sounds great! I like your bit about "active rest". Let me know if you have any questions about my corrections.

    I Will Venmo You

    Could you please correct my English? I went to a bank to send money to my friend. Banks charge a fee when we send money to a different bank. I remember <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">“venmo.”</s>("Venmo".) If I could tell my friend that I would venmo(Venmo is always capitalized because it is a proper noun. You are using it as a verb here. This is colloquially acceptable as informal language mostly in speaking. If this were a formal document or professional email even, I would not use it this way.) her, it would be handy. There is no fee to send money using <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">venmo</s>(Venmo). However, Japan is a cash society, so such services haven’t been that popular here in Japan. I don’t think the <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">venmo</s>(Venmo)system is available here. Do you often <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">venmo</s>(Venmo) someone?

    Yes, I use Venmo :) Grammatically, using Venmo as a verb is not correct. However, neither is "Google" as in "Google it". This is colloquial speech and is informal. It is acceptable to say "Venmo me" in colloquial or informal speech, your meaning will be obvious. If I were sending a professional email or having a professional phone call, I would not say "Venmo me" I would say something like "Send the funds through Venmo." Or, "you can pay me with Venmo." Let me know if you have any questions about my corrections.

    Growing up

    Last Christmas I was wondering about what I'll be doing in the next year(Recommend: 'next year'), and now... Now I'm so freakin' proud of myself<s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">.</s>(!)
    I've done a lot of things, even stuff I've never considered as concrete objectives have become reachable in these months (like getting(Recommend: 'reaching' 'achieving' or 'getting to')the <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">intermidiate</s>(intermediate) level in English and also in Spanish), and that's all because I <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">grow</s>(grew) up so much, but not just physically, even mentally.
    Last year, whatever seems to be in anyways complicate(Recommend: 'seemed complicated') quite scared me, but now I feel like I can do anything I want to do.
    And call me crazy, but I won't stop here: the more confident I become, the more things I wanna do.

    Awesome! Great job! Sounds like a powerful feeling. Let me know if you have any questions about my corrections.

    My New Vocabulary for Today Part 106

    Hi, I'm trying to make some sentences using the new vocabulary I learnt today.
    If there are any grammar mistakes and/or weird word choices, please correct them. Thanks.

    1) Why don't you use pre-prepared frozen(we usually just say 'frozen' It is understood that it was frozen or prepared ahead of time.) of processed food?

    2) A pupil takes part in a cramming(cramming means to study a lot of information in a short amount of time. This use does not make sense to me.)school.

    3) He took the blame for the accident and got fired.

    4) Armed robbers raid a security depot.

    5) I've got blisters on my fingers by working.('I get blisters on my fingers by working' or 'I've got blisters on my fingers from working.')

    6) Blisters have broken many times and <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">those </s>have become callouses.

    7) I used a google map('a Google map' if you mean some map made by Google. If you mean the normal GPS app then we say 'I used Google Maps') too much today and my phone has run out (of battery).

    8) Lack of solidarity is in hot water.(I do not know what you mean here)

    9) When he boasted <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">of</s>(about) himself(,) I <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">would always </s>complimented <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">for </s>him.

    10) He moaned last night because he was under the weather.

    11) The work is a piece of cake but(,) it's not my cup of tea.

    12) You should keep an eye on him, he is a dark horse.(Grammar is correct but I don't know what you mean by this.)

    13) I'm working against the clock so I always put my foot in it.(Grammar is correct but not sure what you mean to say here.)

    14) I'm not good at a small talk with strangers.

    Good use of collocations and vocabulary. Let me know if you have any questions about my corrections.

    ++Afrika(Unless this is the name of the event, we spell the continent, 'Africa')Burn 2019

    Hi folks!
    A year ago I took a part in (the) Dragon Burn Festival (Chinese Burn). There I made a design(Did you make a creative piece of art, a 'design' or did you make a 'plan' which is to set an intention?) that I will go (to) Afrika Burn next year. And I did it!
    Many people asked me "how was it?" Well, there is no one adjective which can reflect all the experiences I had. Afrika Burn is a place where you don't have time to take pictures. You just want to absorb all the magic happening around. Here is my short video.
    Nothing informative, just vibes!

    Sounds exciting! I like your energy and your tone. Let me know if you have any questions about my corrections.

    T.V free

    This is a summary of an <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">artical</s>(article) I have read.
    .

    Have you ever thought about living with out <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">T.V ?</s>(TV?)

    I enjoy life better without a TV. It's just a mindless time wasting device. Interesting entry :) I recommend breaking your sentences into shorter simple sentences. Let me know if you have any questions about my corrections.
