Hey there! I'm an American student who loves linguistics. I am a native English speaker (obviously) and have been learning/speaking French for over five years. I am an avid baseball fan, and love to both play and watch the great American pastime. I love music - listening to it, playing it, and composing it. I am also an aspiring chef and love to experiment in the kitchen! See ya around!

    In my experience, the "might" is used if the scenario is unlikely, while "may" is used it the scenario is likely. Grammatically speaking, either are correct, but it really just depends on the situation. NOTE - "might" is the safer bet. "May" could be interpreted as giving permission versus the probability of something happening. Hope that helps!

    Personally, I love the TV shows The Big Bang Theory, Mythbusters, How I Met Your Mother, and Dr. Who. I'm a nerd, I know. :)

    summer vacation

    My summer vacation is so boring.
    Every day is eating and sleeping or playing games.
    I don't like this life.
    I want to travel and meet new friends, but the weather is too hot.
    So, I can't do anything.
    This summer is really boring and sad.
    I don't like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Just a few mistakes in verb tense, otherwise nice job. And I'm sorry about your summer - mine has been pretty boring too. :P

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    Hello!
    I am new here and I hope to do this well.
    I would like to learn this beautiful language as well as it is possible.
    Many years ago I studied it for six month and I wouldn't like to forget it. 
    That is why I am here, it could be good for me, I think and I hope so.
    Be fine and thanks for reading this.


    Other than the bolded/underlined words, very nicely done! You have great command of the English language! Keep it up!

    1) "It's nice having all of you here this evening" 2) "They had hardly learnt it when he went somewhere else; he didn't give them time to thank him..." 3) "You know people will often quote the words of the Lord at the Last Judgement..." 4) "Meister Achod (sp?), a great German mystic..." 5) "brightly" 6) "It gave forth a different fragrance" The only thing I wasn't certain on was the spelling of the man's name in number 4... other than that, I hope that clears up any confusion you had!

    My favorite holiday tradition is when my whole family gathers together at Thanksgiving and we give thanks for each other and everything we have. I love waking up and watching the Macy's Day Parade, driving to the city to help feed the homeless, then coming home to a great family gathering and watching/playing some American football with my cousins. There's nothing quite like it in my opinion.

    I second everything Vladimir said. Basically exposing yourself to as much of the English language as possible will help. In my personal experience, my language learning improves greatly when I am immersed in the language (speaking in conversation/watching movies/listening to music) rather than just reading and writing in the language. You really have to just keep at it and work hard, but as it is with learning any language, the hard work is always worth it. Best of luck!
