First off, I want to say that I can speak a somewhat decent amount of Korean and Mandarin (in my opinion, at least). XD However, I know that I'm still lacking a lot and due to that, I want to practice! I think being regular language partners could benefit us both! I want to find both native Korean speakers and native Mandarin speakers but I'm not too into the Beijing accent, sorry about that. Also, I learned Mandarin with zhuyin and Traditional Chinese. Also, I've noticed there is a lot of help on the English section so I probably won't be wandering around there too much but if you ever have any questions that you believe I could help you out with then you're always welcome to send me a message or something. Anyway, thanks for reading and I hope we can get to know each other!

    조만간가자!

    what did say? -> What does this say?

    조만간 가자!

    shortly let's go!  -> Shortly, let's go!
    In the near future let's go togeter :)  -> In the near future, let's go together!

    which correct sentence? -> Which sentence is correct?


    'Shortly, let's go!' and 'In the near future, let's go together!' are both grammatically correct but they're not very natural. I think it would be better to use 'Let's go soon!'. I use that phrase a lot in my everyday life. =) Anyways, good job!

    I try to learn English, because it's useful and interesting. -> I try to learn English because it's useful and interesting.

    This one was perfect except you didn't need the comma in between the two phrases.

    I want to be up to day. -> I want to be up to date on things.

    The idiom is 'up to date' and you should probably specify what you want to be up to date on otherwise your readers or listeners won't know what you're talking about.

    Besides them foreign languages includes a lot of things that catch. -> I'm not too sure what you mean by this so I don't know how to go about correcting it, sorry.


    But anyways, good job! ^_^

    I don't know what to write about myself so feel free to ask me whatever you wanna know about me. I have msn and skype, too, so we can talk there as well.

     

    Overall, your grammar was pretty much perfect! Just watch out for spacing and punctuation. And at the end, it's a little strange sounding to put 'too' twice so I changed one to something with the same meaning but would sound a little more native. Anyways, good job! ^_^

    Hello~ Wow, I haven't been here in a long time! 우와~ 나 여기온지 너무 오래됏네요 I'm not too sure why I suddenly wanted to come here again, though haha 왜 갑자기 여기로 들어오고 싶은지도 잘 모르겠는데요 Anyways, while I'm here I thought maybe I'd practice my Korean! 여튼, 난 여기 있는동안 한국어 연습 좀 할까 해요! I have Korean friends but when I go out with them, I'm always too shy to speak Korean. 난 한국친구 있는데 그 친구랑 놀러 갈때 넘 부끄러워서 한국어 한마디도 못하거든요 They know I understand some Korean and they think I'm really good but to be honest, I'm really not. 걔들은 나 한국말 좀 알아듣는지 알고 나 한국말 되게 잘한다고 생각하지만 속직하게 말하면 진짜 잘못해요 But I really want to be able to speak Korean well. 근데 난 정말 한국어 익숙하게 말하고 싶어요. I can read and understand pretty well but my writing, speaking and listening are still bad. 난 한국어 읽기랑 알아듣기 쫌 할수있는데 쓰기랑 말하기랑 듣기는 별로 안좋거든요 Well, it's 5AM so I'm going to go to sleep! 여긴 새벽5시라서 이만 자러 갈거에요~ Thanks for reading~ 읽어줘서 감사해요~

    Pre TOEIC test

    Hello, everyone.


    Today, I have a pre TOEIC test.

    I think I'm not ready yet. But I must to know my current status. -> I don't think I'm ready yet but I need to know my current level in English.

    Current status is not grammatically wrong but I think it's better to use 'level' when you're speaking about languages and where you're at.

    It's really nervous cause, I'm really busy in recently. -> I'm really nervous because I've been really busy recently.

    Since you're speaking about yourself, you should use 'I' instead of 'it' because you're not an animal or object. XD

    Grammar or Vocabulary, what is the first thing, If you're not good English? -> Grammar or vocabulary? What is (the first thing you should learn/more important) if you're not good at English?

    Since 'first thing' is really vague and it makes people question 'first thing for what?', I thought it would be better to make things a little more specific!


    Anyways, keep up the good work and have fun learning English! ^_^

    I am very strong want know english, but difficult it is given...... -> I really want to (know/learn) English but it is really difficult.

    It was hard trying to figure out what you wanted to say but I did the best I could! And I can't speak Russian so I can't ask for the original statement to help you translate, either, sorry. >_<

    What a fine day it is!

    Today is a fine day!

    When I got up in the morning, the weather is rainy. -> When I got up in the morning, the weather was rainy

    You specified that you got up in the morning which is past tense so you should follow through and make the rest of your sentence past tense, as well.

    So my mood is also bule. -> So my mood was also blue.

    This followed what I mentioned before. Since your mood is not blue anymore, you should use the past tense so people now that you are not blue anymore~

    But ,when in the afternoon,the sun rose up and the sky is bule ,the birds are singing.So I am very happy . -> But in the afternoon, the sun rose up, the sky turned blue and birds started singing so now I am very happy.

    Again, just remember the past tense~ And using 'now' means that before you weren't happy because you were blue but now you are happy because of those things that happened.

    I think it is a fine day !

     

    I agree with 할아버지! You did a good job! There wasn't that many mistakes in your notebook entry! Keep up the good work and have fun learning English! =)

    well,i'm an undergraduate. -> Well, first of all, I'm an undergraduate student.

    When you use 'well', it kind of has a nuance of you answering a question hesitatingly or you are answering something or responding to something hesitatingly. If you start out with 'well' when you're just speaking, it's better to stick on a 'first' or 'starting out' or something to tell your readers that you're going to be speaking to them.

    i'm lemon,from hebei province ,north of the China. -> I'm Lemon from the Hebei province in northern China.

    i came to wuhan to study for almost four years. -> I came to Wuhan to study and have been here for almost four years now.

    This was a little hard for me to try to keep it the same as you wanted it. If you mean that you go to Wuhan everyday from here you live then you can say 'I've gone to Wuhan to study for almost four years' but if you moved there then my suggestion is better. Your tenses don't really agree.

    i'm that kind of person who is optimistic,aggressive and diligent girl . -> I'm the kind of (person/girl) who is optimistic, agressive and diligent.

    Using 'who is blahblah' means that you are already describing a noun that came before 'who' so adding girl at the end just has two nouns for one adjective. So instead you can just use person or girl (whatever you wish) in the front.

    English is my favourite,since i was a junior student ,i just loved it. -> English has been my favorite since I was a junior in high school. I just love it.

    I assume junior student = junior in high school because you said you're an undergraduate which implies college. Also, using 'loved' means that you don't anymore but I think that you still do. XD

    But, I still have many weaknesses like speaking,vocabulary,and so on. -> But I still have many weaknesses like speaking, vocabulary, and so on.

    so,i wish that i can make friends and learn more in order to improve myself.thanks. -> So I wish that I can make friends and learn more about English in order to improve myself. Thanks.

    I'm not sure if you meant learn more about things in general or just learn more about English but I assumed it would be about English since it is an entry about English. But you know what they say when you assume...


    Anyways, you did a good job! Have fun learning English! =)

    Now,i am a junior student , i want to exercise my oracy for studying abroad next year~and also i can help you with your Chinese...hahahahaaaa~

     

    ->

     

    I am a junior in college right now and I want to practice speaking because I (want to/am going to) study abroad next year. I can also help you with your Chinese.

     

    Oracy is a good word to know but it's not used that often in everyday conversation so I thought just using 'speaking' would be better. Also, saying that you're a junior already tells the reader that you're a student so specifying whether you're a high school junior or college junior would be more helpful for them. I wasn't too sure whether you just want to or you already have plans to study abroad so I put your options in parentheses.


    Anyways, good job and have fun learning English! =)
