Hi! My name's Katie, I am open to conversation partners in Italian, BSL and English, not Czech yet as I can only remember my McDonalds order. A little about me; I have worked in a zoo, been a dance teacher, lived in the Czech republic and learn aerial silks for fun! I am an intermediate Italian speaker and can get by in conversation but would love to practise and speed up my brain when talking, as I'm still at the slow-trying to conjugate in my head- phase. I am a level 3 BSL speaker and would love to practise with others, I really love the expression in BSL and unfortunately there aren't as many places to practise in my town.

    I think it would depend on the languages you are learning, if the two languages are quite similar for example Italian and Spanish, this will be a lot more difficult than if you are learning two different language branches for example Portuguese and Swedish. As long as you believe in yourself and try to compartmentalise the languages you should definitely be able to learn them, just bear in mind it's double the vocabulary and grammar :) Good luck!

    My profile. Please check and correct !!

    Hello!!
    I want to find language partners for English in exchange for Japanese!! Please send me a message if you would be interested!!

    I'm Japanese and live in Tokyo.
    I'm a university freshman majoring in law.
    My hobbies are anime, manga and world history.
    I want to use English fluently and make foreign friends because I want to learn about varieties of cultures and thoughts.
    Furthermore, I want to go abroad, so I have to take over 80points in the TOEFL test.
    Also, I study Spanish, so I'm happy to teach that too !!

    This would be my adjustment if you like it :)

    Grammatically yes, "I heard" is the correct form, however most native speakers in England will use "I hear" I'm not exactly sure why we do it but if you are speaking to a native you can use either form and it will be correct in speaking.

    So a sweet refers to food of a high sugar content- candy, biscuits, chocolate etc. A sweet fix refers to the eating of these sweet foods, with a fix being the portion of the sugary food we eat. So in the article you have seen it is saying that "the more sugar we eat, the more the brain tells us that we must eat more sugar". A fix can be used to refer a craving for any type of food or drink, or can be extended to further to things like movie genre or hobby. With fix meaning an intake, e.g. "I need to get my fix of exercise", " I need a tea fix". It originates from an idea of addiction, that you require this specific thing in order to get back to a normal state. Hope this helps

    The reason <s>of </s>for the S shape of river

    On the earth, a lot of river’s shapes are S snake(this is okay but would sound better as " a lot of rivers have an S shape, like a snake"), <em>we have to feel amazing for the natural </em>(not sure of the meaning? maybe instead " we feel amazed at the natural Earth form" this is more scientific). Why does this interesting landscape occur? From research, we have got the answer. For example, an adorable little family of hamsters want a cozy house in the deep hole. They decide to make a burrow beside the river on the plain, however the holes are quickly flooded. The water flows into the hole faster and faster and sweeps out the dirt. At the same time, on the other side water flows slower until it has dried to form land. Then other hamsters also take part in the establishing of new houses, causing more and more streams to form <s>at last</s>. And so the river bent to curve. <s>On other hand In </s>addition, some streams flow and combine <s>into</s> together to form a lake.
    We know it will not always be the hamsters burrow beside <s>of</s> the rivers, but there will be <s>an</s>other similar situations to form the classic shape. We have to sigh the wonder of nature.

    The sentence as a whole is natural, perhaps lacking in pronunciation, but natural. ( I read it as "This story, that ordinary people are willing to do the most peculiar things to project themselves into the public eye, is a disturbing comment on modern societies obsession with fame") see also society-societies. Disturbing works fine in this context, and refers to a feeling of upset/concern/worry/trouble. So in this title it is saying the want of fame is a worrying (or insert other synonym) thing in society due to it's interruption of normality. Hope this helps.
