    English practice- sentences

    Pls help correct. Any correction would be appreciated. Thanks!

    1. Today I woke up at 3 am and my back hurt, then I suddenly realized I was sitting instead of laying in my bed. I guess I was just tired. <s>out and</s> I must have fallen asleep while sitting on the/my bed reading last night.

    2. Attention is a commodity that has great value. And nowadays, it’s easy to get distracted<s>, </s>because there are so many things out there trying to attract (OR: vying for) our attention.

    3. Is there any English learning method you<s>’d</s> regret not having <s>you haven’t</s> seen earlier?

    4. How desperate can a man be that he actually wants to end his own life?

    5. When you were a kid, what have you done that you think you can flex (is this slang? not sure of the context here :D) for your whole life? (OR: What did you do when you were a kid that you can brag about your whole life?)

    all the best,

    Are you satisfied with the number of your brothers and sisters?

    Many people have brothers and sisters but some people don't have them. If you have some brothers and sisters, you <s>can</s> always have someone to play with, <s>them</s> and sometimes fight with, <s>them since you were a child</s> as children sometimes do. It makes you learn socially beneficial activities. However, you must share your parents' interest and share your toys with your brothers and sisters. Also (OR: Additionally/In addition), having many children is tough for their parents because they need a lot of time and money to look after them.

    If you are <s>only one</s> an only child, you can monopolize parental love and interest, and toys, though it may make you selfish. Are you satisfied with the number of your brothers and sisters? Or do you want <s>them</s> more or less of them? Or, do you wish you are an only <s>one</s> child?

    Well done, Yuuichi Tam :)

    best,

    What happened yesterday.(My son loves singing the song)

    Hi, this is my first time to write a notebook.

    I picked up my kids at the bus stop after school yesterday.
    I saw my oldest boy, and he was wearing <s>who wore</s> a new T-shirt.
    So I asked him, "Where did you get a new one?"
    He said I got it from school, and this is a uniform for a choir performance.
    He loves singing<s> the song</s>, so he is joining a choir this year.
    This Tuesday, he had a fall [feeder?] festival at the Highlands Ranch High School.
    I was so proud of him.
    When I was in <s>the </s>elementary school,
    I loved singing <s>the song</s> and practiced it everyday.
    Sometimes I sang <s>the song</s> in front of people at school.
    I was really stressed by it, but it made me grow<s>n</s> up.
    He said he was nervous, but that it was fun (or "but that he had fun.")
    I think he looks like me. (or "He reminds me of myself.")
    From time to time, he said he wants to be a singer after he has become <s>to be</s> a baseball player. (or "From time to time, he tells me he would like to be a singer after being a baseball player.")
    I hope he makes his dreams come true, and I will try to help him bring his dreams closer.

    Thank you for reading it.

    Have a good day.^^

    well done! that's so sweet.

    Hero,

    This is a small composition I wrote. Can you revise it for me? Thank you. Thank you.

    I think my mom is my superhero. She hasn't made any great contributions, but I think she is an ordinary (or everyday) superhero. My mum, a [?] woman, often gets up early and stays up late. <s>For me, this persistence has been more than ten years. </s> I have witnessed this for the past ten years.

    I often advised her not to be so tired (to get some rest), but she did not listen to me. I know that is a mother's deep love for her son (I know that she cares deeply about me). I think it is a great relief for her now that I'm in college. So I don't think you have to make a great contribution to be a hero; you can make the most of the little things in ordinary life and stick to them, and that is what makes my mom my superhero.

    cheers :D

    Hospital story

    Doctor:
    Good morning, Mr. Pintenau, how are you today?

    Patient:
    Good morning Doc, I'm feeling much better but my head hurts, and every once in a while I feel dizzy.

    Doctor:
    That is absolutely normal after a surgery like that, Mr. Pintenau. If all is going well you should be released from the hospital in a few days.

    Patient:
    That sounds great! You should know that I'm having a date with a beautiful woman which I'm reluctant to cancel.

    Doctor:
    I cannot promise anything, but if you continue to take your medicine, then<s>,</s> I think<s>,</s> there is nothing to stop you from doing that. Will it be your first date with that woman?

    Patient:
    Actually, we have seen a lot of each other since I've been hospitalized. It seems like she loves me. She even serves me food and beverage and she can literally read every wish from my lips.

    Well done, Rene :)

    Review of the song "Nature Boy"

    The story of this song is about a very simple, intelligent man who has seen a lot, gives advice to his friend, (or perhaps restructure the sentence, depending on your meaning) about what is important in life is to love, and be loved. It's definitely a metaphor, the song has a deeper meaning. The author was the son of a Baptist priest but this did not <s>but</s> affect his creative activity. Love is the foundation of our life. The creators of new world religions, such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Buddhism, put this value above all others. They have empirically discovered this law of love and modern philosophers have yet to interpret if this construct is in line with our new ideas about life.

    Indeed, love permeates all our relationships. The love of a man and a woman makes since existence of both <s>and</s> gives a new life. Parents' love for their children allows this life to continue. Between people there is “friendship love” or, in other words, friendship based on fidelity, absolute trust and sincerity to each other, as well as mutual assistance. Business has its own version of friendship, it's called a partnership. I am convinced that without a friendly partnership, no successful business between people is possible.

    Love is a program that allows a person to successfully implement all the good that is inherent in it. I can say that this song is a differently told biblical story about how, after long wanderings, a man returned to the true, sublime and the only pole of attraction for him.

    103 - One of my favorite Italian words (3)

    One of my favorite Italian words is "scibile", which does not seem to have an English counterpart. The definition of "scibile" from the dictionary is "everything that can be learnt by a human mind or <s>the</s> mankind." It is usually also used as a synonym for "knowledge" in Italian, which makes sense. It is a very rare word and it is generally used only in the academic field or if you want to sound baroque. The first time I heard it was during my school years, in particular in the third year of high school. It was uttered by my Italian teacher and the entire class was shocked, since no one had ever heard that word before. She was a very demanding teacher and we all feared that she would ask someone the meaning of that word. But instead, she understood the situation and she decided to explain to us what that splendid word means. I remember it clearly because I am very fond of rare, and especially stilted, Italian words and expressions, and even if I don't have a strong memory, I will never forget these kinds of stories. I do not know if there is an English word or expression similar to "scibile", but if it is so, then I will be glad if you let me know in the comments or in the correction.

    The only word that comes super close is "omniscient," however, that almost always refers to religion usage, as in "a deity is omniscient." However, in recent years, I have heard this being used more casually and not related to religion, but it is slightly different. Well done, though, Antonello! :)

    JUST A DIARY ENTRY ON September 9th

    I would like someone to correct my diary (or to tell me the natural way of saying some things below. But I would be happy even if you JUST CORRECT my entry). Here, I might write <s>down here</s> in spoken English, possibly, because I want to improve not just my writing skills, but also the skill of spoken English <s>Can you</s> Could do that for me, please?

    JUST A DIARY ENTRY ON September 9th

    The brand-new series of Pokemon is coming soon here. It has been about 4 years since they launched the last one of Pokemon, so those who are a huge fan of the game or characters can't <s>be</s> wait for the release date. Of course, I can't either. I am <s>one of </s>among those people, and for me, I was raised<s> by with </s>watching that anime [you could just say 'Pokemon', or 'this'] and I always <s>do</s> play the games in those series. Yes, I am already an adult, too old not to be called a young child, I mean I am 25 years old, so you guys might think of me as almost a middle-aged man lol. And I know myself that every game is created <s>by</s> for children. But I can't help<s>ed</s> to play that when that is on sale. I have one thought on Pokemon, however. I am wondering if those games are not so much <s>the </s>games for children as they are for adults. They are adult-oriented, I think. You know, this game concept is really profound, because this means<s>,</s> that gamers all over the world would be in the world of that game. If anything, Nintendo, where Pokemon was born at, might intend [this to be] so.

    Well done Taichi, and an interesting topic.

    hope you can help me correct this article

    Tonight I went out for my tutoring class. While I was walking back to school, it suddenly rained heavily. Since it was windy before, many people didn't bring an umbrella, so many of them had to hide under the canopies in the streets. Fortunately I brought my umbrella (because it is my habit to bring an umbrella with me). But only after about a minute, the rain stopped totally. It was just liked a cloud flew over the sky and left its short footprint. It reminded me of a short sentence in a Chinese essay --"你轻轻地来,也轻轻地走".
    I decided to write my English daily as much as possible, as it is a way to practice my oral English. Yes, it is not writing English but oral English. Because the sentences I write are to record my daily life. It is a form of narration, but the writing in the exam is argumentative. So it's a [great] way to practice my oral English.

    Well done :D
