    Why not? Since you never truly finish learning a language, there is no point in waiting. Learn all you can whenever you can. Go for it!

    Writing in English

    Hi there,
    I would like you to tell me if my sentences are well written and how natural they sound, please.

    The old woman stretched out an arm and the taxi stopped by her side. The man saw her small body getting in the car and choosing, incredibly, the passenger seat. Her kind tender smile made him feel valued because such an expression was strange in old women. "This is a likeable little old lady, -the man thought, almost thinking out loud so that the old woman seemed to hear him. She stared at his face in a revealing way causing discomfiture, and in sum, she smiled. When she covered her wrinkled face that made her look funny because her little eyes went missing when devoured by serious marionette lines, the reality seemed to detach from her in an instant turning her into a child in a perfect grandmother costume.

    I think they both work but compromising sounds more educated and professional.

    I think the first one sounds better. For some reason the second one makes me think of draw as in draw picture. Like all of a sudden a cartoonist drew a picture of you as a researcher.

    You could substitute "about" for "one of" here and keep the meaning. However, "one of" here is an unnecessary phrase, you could take it out and it would not change the meaning at all except to make the sentence more clear and less pretentious.

    To home in on something means to get closer to a target. The phrase comes from homing pigeons who are able to find their way home from a great distance. The people who first designed guided missiles saw the similarity between the missiles and pigeons and began to use home in on a target when talking about missiles too. Now English speakers can use the phrase for many things, like, for example, tables at a farmer's market. I guess that he is uncertain that this table is his actual target. What is he looking for?

    We physically feel some unpleasant emotions like nervousness or guilt in our stomachs. Does that not happen in Chinese culture? I assumed it was universal. The second part of the sentence is not written very clearly. I am not sure what it means except that the person feels guilty about something for some reason.
