    How x How much

    Hi, there

    Should I use “how” or “how much” in these sentences?


    “He was telling us about his father, and how like him he was” or “ He was telling us about his father, and how MUCH like him he was”?
    it is actually more common for a native speaker to say, "He was telling me that he was just like his father. Or he said, He and his father are a lot alike. You can say: He was telling me how much he was like him too.

    “I forgot how this smell like cherries” or “I forgot how much this smell like cherries”
    " I forgot how much these ( or this _____) smells like cherries.


    Please let me know if you have questions!!! :) Enjoy your day!!!

    Common shipping issues

    Could someone check this text and make it sound more natural?


    Hello,

    We have received some shipments ( see attached pictures ) that had the labels on the boxes, However the packing lists are missing.

    Unfortunately, there is no other documents that can accurately identify the contents of the boxes
    ( are available ?). Additionally, some of the packages contain multiple items.

    Due to this, when I opened the books to do a quick check, I was unable to make sure the contents matched the packing list.

    This is not the first time that this has happened. Many times, the shipments have arrived without packing lists and without the materials being identified properly. Such as: the materials are not marked with labels or numbers telling which item is which. When these things are missing this prevents us from completing the required tasks in a timely manner.

    Please double check to make sure all necessary forms are included and things are marked appropriately to avoid this from happening again. Thank you! I also suggest that you forward a copy of the forms to the receiving party. Thanks again.

    I look forwar to hearing from you

    Please let me know if you have questions with any of my corrections or changes. Thanks and have a great day!! Michelle :)

    Yesterday, I watched a couple of You Tube <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">news </s>videos on\about the current <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">American</s> protests in America. Things looked terrible. Coupled with the Covid-19 pandemic and what is happening from the protests it  may cause such a great damage that <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">probably,</s> it should <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">has to</s> be stopped <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">by any means</s>. Looting and fighting with the police during such a difficult time  doesn’t look like effective steps to force the system to reform itself. <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">The</s> President Trump also doesn't seem like  a person who knows how to handle the crisis, which it is probably a biggest crisis since the Great Depression. I hope that all my friends and colleagues in the U.S. will stay safe at their homes and the tension will soon decrease. The pain is hard, and of course, black people have to have their voices heard and they deserve equal rights, but this is not the way the things willbe changed.

    Great work, let me know if you have any questions with my corrections or changes. Have a great night!! :)

    Day 7 Home work

    I didn't do my English homework. I needed to present about a daily routine. I searched for new pictures that I added to my presentation. It took half an hour. Then I wrote a text about my daily routine <s>in the morning and in the afternoon. </s>I haven't finished my Home work. ?? I like drinking tea while I do my homework. I usually add honey in my tea which makes it very sweet. <s>I know.</s> I don't eat a lot of honey during the day, and
    I do not think that honey helps me to learn English.??? I hope that I have time to still do my homework <s>yet</s>.

    Nice job!
    I am not sure about the part about you not eating a lot of honey, so I changed it a little bit. Let me know if you have questions with my corrections or changes. Have a wonderful day!! Michelle :)

    Finally, it was time for my yearly checkup. I was supposed to <s>take</s> have it in early January this year, but because of the outbreak of corona-virus, though no confirmed cases in my city, I decided to put it off, just to be on the safe side. I had called my doctor for an appointment last Saturday, hoping to get it done that day. Unfortunately, he was booked until this week. Being put on a waiting list is preferable to booking another appointment for another<s> other </s>day. This morning his assistant called <s>in</s> me,  and told me that he was ready to see me. I was half-thrilled and half-worried. On the one hand, I could know my health and thus take care of myself better; on the other hand, what if it ended up bad, what if I had some problems with my blood pressure or cholesterol level or something even worse? Considering my lack of exercise and unhealthy diet<s>s</s> in the past two months, quarantined at home, I had <s>a </s>good reason to be worried. I couldn’t get around it, anyway. So, I just drove over to the doctor. There wasn’t much of a crowd in the hospital. For fear of getting infected, hospitals has become the last place that people <s>would like </s>want to go to on earth. I went to the reception desk and checked in. This time, they needed more information <s>about </s> from me than they normally do, and they took my temperature. After confirming that I had <s>got </s>no traveling history to outbreak zones and that my temperature was normal, one of the receptionists instructed me to the exam room, down the hallway on the second floor, last door on the left. The door was open. I walked in and the doctor waved me to take a seat. He read my chart, and we talked a little bit about the crisis. After checking and inputting my health information <s>on </s> in his computer, he led me through a door on the right <s>wall </s>to another room where there <s>are</s>  were some instruments. He asked me to strip down to my underwear ,and he had me lie down on the exam table. First, he placed a stethoscope on my chest to listen to my heartbeat and breathing. Then he grabbed another instrument and smeared some kind of gel, I think, onto my belly before placing that instrument and moving it around my abdomen. After that, he ordered a blood test. It was the part that I feared most, not for the pain, but  for the blood itself. I thought that I  might pass out over seeing the blood. However, Taking the test was easy. It was only like a sting on the tip of my middle finger <s>at first</s>, and then the doctor used a very thin straw-like stick ( whose name I don’t know) was put on the tiny cut<s> and</s> to suck out some of my blood. I closed...


    Excellent Work!!! Please contact me if you have any questions about my corrections or about the changes I made. Have a great day! Again, you are a great writer. 
    Have a wonderful day!!!

    Yes, it is what Andji explained. A tabby cat is a specific type of cat. In the United States, if you were to tell someone you had a cat, you would NOT just say, I have a tabby. However, you might say, I have a tabby cat. Or I have a cat, he is a tabby. I hope that helps. :) Have a great day!!

    Lately, we have heard the word Quarentine a lot. It is pretty much the only thing people talk about  these days. My social media sites are filled with this word as well. 
    I find all kind of people on my social media. Some people are complaining about how bored they are from staying home 24/7. Some others are expressing gratitude for being alive and healthy. And I think I can relate and understand both sides. Everything depends on how you see the glass, half-full or half-empty. It is up to a person to decide on how they see it. Now that I have more time at home, I am cooking more often, so I am now able to prepare dishes on my own, that I wasn't brave enough to do before.I feel really good about it, and I have been able to eat many de-li-cious meals. It’s been great. 
    My husband doesn’t complain either. <s style="color: rgb(77, 77, 77);">I am healthy, he is as well,</s> ( We are healthy), our family is too. Thankfully, we still have jobs, and we have money to buy food, so our families?? Of course we don’t have dig deep to find something to complain about, but let's try to be positive! In a lot of cases the circumstances could be a lot worse.

    Nice work! Please let me know if you have any questions with my corrections or changes. You did great.

    ( We are healthy) My suggestion is to omit: I am healthy, he is well and change to: We are healthy.

    So our families?? I was not sure about this. I think it might be: so our families have enough to eat. :)

    Again, great work, and please contact me if you have questions. Enjoy your night!! :)
