Google calendar, Google map, Google mail, Yahoo mail, WhatsApp, Signal, Facebook and Onenote are the must-have apps on my phone, especially Google calendar, Google map, WhatsApp and Signal. I can say I can not live without them now. I do save all of the important events in Google calendar and it's convenience to review my schedule. I have a poor sense of direction and therefore I need Google map if I visit a new place. WhatsApp and Signal are two of the most famous communication apps nowadays. I must have them to keep contact with my relatives, friends and colleagues. Onenote is one of the apps that I have been using recently. I use it to keep my English lessons notes and recipes that I love (its function for me just like a cookbook). I can check a recipe easily during cooking.

Very nice text, Joshua! I'm including a few comments for you! I am a student and I *have been * learning English recently. [use the present perfect progressive here, because the action started in the past and continues in the present] I tried reciting movie scripts or books, but I didn't hold on long enough to *not* give up/ but I didn't hold on long enough and I gave up. [because *give up* means to stop/quit] Is there any good way to learn spoken language?. Learning informal spoken language is a challenge. One thing I recommend to my students is listening to *live* audio, for example, live streaming YouTube or Twitch videos, live radio interviews/conversation, or reaction videos. The language in this type of media is *improvised and spontaneous,* which is hard to find sometimes, since many types of video and media are *scripted.* It's a strategy that has really been helping me learn Portuguese :)

I like option A. This is because the present perfect use here is appropriate since the past action has present significance...but also I think the juxtaposition of "Hell has frozen over," which is very colloquial and informal, with the later usage of the word "feast," which is quite formal and ceremonious sounding, is quite funny. I assume you are intending for it to be humorous. If you're not going for humor, I would switch out the second phrase for something that matches the informality of the first sentence, like "Let's eat."

Oi Laryssa, Eu estou estudando o português e gosto muito desta ideia. Como é possível me juntar a este grupo? Tentei o link mas acho porque meu telefone é um pouco velho, o navegador (web browser app?) que tenho não e bastante actualizado para carregar a página...Tem outra maneira para fazer isto?
