Première leçon très intéressante avec Meriwether. Elle a une bonne connaissance du français et, dans l'ensemble, elle s'exprime avec aisance. Je me réjouis de commencer cette aventure avec elle!

    Capitalize "state" when it's a proper noun. A proper noun is used for names of people and places, planets, titles (Professor Smith Doctor Johnson), directions (North, South, East, West), organizations, months, days of the week, and God. Capitalize all words in headlines or titles, except for articles, (the, a, an) prepositions, and coordinating conjunctions (yet, and, so). The State of the Union is a famous speech that the president gives every year, so that would be capitalized. Some universites have "state" in the title. For example, Oregon State University. Our idiot president spreads conspiracy theories about the deep state. That's when supposedly very influential people have power over us, but we just don't realize it (Example: Bill Gates gave is responsible for coronavirus because he wants to force us all to get vaccinations so he can control our minds and take over the world.) I wouldn't capitalize it, but that's just me.

    "State" is lowercase when it refers to the verb, a state of mind, or an emotional state.

    Okay, I edited this one as well. Are you at all concerned about Hungary's move toward a fascist government? I am concerned about the rise of authoritarian leaders all over the world.

    Hungary 7

    This is a part of a larger essay.

    The Facebook post from the official Hungarian government was written with the intent of obstructing Prime Minister Orban in defending Hungarian national interests, especially when those interests diverge from the general Western political trend.
    The most striking event in the confrontation between Orban and the West for the preservation and strengthening of the Hungarian national state was the migration crisis that erupted in Europe in 2015, and which has not yet been resolved.

    Hungary 6

    This is a part of a larger essay.

    The report also ackowledges that in January, 1943, the “Soviet Army launched an attack” on the Hungarians. As a result, the beseiged country lost “120,000 soldiers, many of whom were captured."
    2019 marked the 76th anniversary of the beginning of the Ostrogozhsk–Rossosh Offensive, in which the Red Army defeated the forces of Nazi Germany and their allies, including Hungarian soldiers.
    The Don Soviet Republic went on to defeat German, Italian, Hungarian and Romanian troops. According to some reports, the operation against the Axis powers resulted in more than 50,000 casualties and more than 70,000 soldiers captured.

    Innocent victims sounds a bit redundant. The word "victims" implies they were innocent. Writing "these" rather than "those" will make it sound more intimate, as if the people are closer to you

    ''In honor of those innocent victims''

    Does this sound natural?

    I would go with #1 but I would delete "declaration" and change "proof" to "evidence" to improve flow.

    Being drunk doesn't lead to being blinded by love, so it's not a natural cause and effect. Does the person need to literally or metaphorically sober up? I agree that "wake up" sounds more natural. You could also say "come back to Earth" or "open your eyes."
