Hello! My name is Daniel. It is nice to meet you. I am a Canadian living in Japan. I want to be able to speak Japanese fluently, so I need a lot of speaking practice. English is my native language and I learned French for 14 years, so I can help language partners with those languages as well. こんにちは！ダニエルと申します。日本に住んでいるカナダ人です。日本語が上手になりたいと思いますから、練習する必要がありますね。英語とフランス語ができます。よろしく！

    Yes, both sentences are perfect! "I found some letters written from him to her" could mean that the letters were never actually sent to "her".

    I agree with both the comment and the answers here. But I want to add that both "These shoes are tight" and "These shoes are on the tight side" might both mean that the shoes are tight. "These shoes are on the tight side" is more polite though, because it is less direct.

    I have not got is informal for I do not have. That means I have not got = I do not have I have not got very good coordination = I do not have very good coordination = My coordination is not very good. In spoken English we will often say "I haven't" in place of "I have not". Some examples sentences: I haven't got a dog = I do not have a dog I haven't got your letter yet = I do not have your letter yet Please remember that this is informal English. Some people might say this is bad English. So, it is better to use "I do not have" than "I have not got". Good luck studying!

    Could you write the whole sentence that these phrases are in? Or the paragraph that they are in?

    In this sentence, "very much" means "almost the same". "Simply" is used here to mean "without thinking" or "without trouble." It is used to show that "they" don't thank people for generosity.

    The meaning of “Oh, man, would I have liked to have seen that." is: “Oh, man, I would have liked to have seen that." The boy is saying that he wanted to see Jeff punch Chalkers in the eye. ( I am just guessing this is what the story is about ) Sometimes in English we will change the sentence into a question when we want to add emphasis. It works best when the subject is "I". For example, if someone is describing a really good meal they ate, you could say, "Wow! Would I have liked to have eaten that!" If you get your friend a really great gift that you know they will love, you could say, "Have I got a gift for you!" as you give them the present. I think that we don't use it very often in English, though.
