    08.06.2020

    08.06.2020.
    It's fifteenth minutes past twelve a.m.
    <em>We would usually say "It's a quarter past midnight," but "It's </em><em>fifteen</em><em> minutes past twelve a.m." is grammatically correct.</em>

    I did nothing unusual or interesting today. And I hate such days. I hate realize that my day was wasted. But I can't say that I am lazy and don't want do anything.
    <em>I hate </em><em>realizing</em> <em>that my day was wasted.</em>

    Opposite I really want to work or learn something new.
    <em>You are probably trying to say something like: "</em><em>It is just the </em><em>opposite - I really want to work or learn something new."</em>

    But there is quarantine in our town and it is difficult to find a job.
    <em>There is </em><em>a</em><em> quarantine in our town - watch for articles. Russians often have difficulty with English articles such as "a," "an," and "the" because they don't have an equivalent in the Russian language. But you've included it for "job," so you're on the right track!</em>

    Also I don't have friends in hometown because I study in other city and I don't communicate with my school old friends.
    <em>I study in </em><em>another</em><em> city and I don't communicate with my </em><em>old</em><em> school friends.</em>

    We congratulate each other on birthdays but not more.
    <em>but nothing more</em>

    Now I came to my parents for the quarantine period. And all my university friends are far away.

    And it is big problem to me because I need to real communication, to hang out with my friends and so on.
    <em>It is </em><em>a</em><em> big problem</em>

    That's all makes me sad and nervous. Hope tomorrow will be more nice and useful
    <em>No need for the apostrophe s ('s) - It should just read "That all makes me sad and nervous."</em>
    <em>Also: </em><em>I</em><em> hope tomorrow will be more nice and useful (you might also try saying "I hope tomorrow will be better and more productive." - this will sound more natural to native speakers.</em>

    [The] Queen's [B]irthday (Titles should be capitalized except for connecting words like "to" or "and")

    [The] Queen's birthday is the day chosen by some countries of Commonwealth to <s>celebrate officially</s> [officially celebrate] the birthday of the Queen or King.

    The birthday of the sovereign was marked the first time in United Kingdom in 1748 by <s>the</s> [usually monarchs are simply addressed by their name and title, we wouldn't call her "the Queen Elizabeth," but simply "Queen Elizabeth"] King Geoges II. Since then, the date of [the King or Queen's] birthday<s> King or Queen have</s> [has] been set i<s>n all </s>[across the entire] <s>british empire</s> British Empire [British Empire should be capitalized]

In some countries, it is a public holiday.

    [Note that when you use a comma, it is improper to add a space <em>before</em> - it only goes <em>after</em>. For example: "I am happy to see you, mother." is correct whereas "I am happy to see you , mother" is not]

    The Day I Joined ElS School.

    On February 5th, 2020, the day I joined ELS was an amazing day. When I came to ELS, I did not know my teachers. I also did not have any friends. In the first period, The teacher introduced herself, and she told <s>every</s> all of the students to introduce <s>them self</s> themselves. After that, she started explaining the first lesson, and her <s>explain </s>explanation was very clear for all of <s>student</s> the students. After that, we had <s style="color: rgb(230, 0, 0);">a</s> breakfast. I sat on my chair, and I drank my coffee. I started to talk with my classmates, and I made a friendship with them [this is grammatically fine but English speakers would be more likely to say "and I made friends with them."]. All my classmates were friendly. The second period was reading and writing. The <s>teacher</s> teacher's name was <s>terry</s> Terry [remember to capitalize names], and her class was interesting. She made us <s>enjoyed in</s> enjoy her class. After that, I had a <s>break lunch </s>lunch break, and I went to <s>the</s> <s>MacDonald</s> McDonald's restaurant.

    The French App for COVID-19 [Titles should be capitalized]

    End of the lockdown: <s>How works the </s><s style="color: rgb(230, 0, 0);">tracking</s><s> app StopCovid ?</s> How does the tracking app StopCovid Work?
    StopCovid, the smartphone app is supposed to help <s>fighting</s> fight <s>the</s> [unnecessary use of "the"] covid-19 <s>with</s> by tracking people and their contacts. It will be available on June 2th.

    Less than half of french people want to download this app when it will be available according to Odoxa-Dentsu Consulting. [Very Good]

    The app StopCovid will be available and operational on the June 2th.

    Judged inefficient and dangerous to <s>the</s> personal freedom by its opponents, it permits [permits whom?] to track <s>' the people contacts'</s> personal contacts, notifying users if they have met <s>sink</s> sick people.

    Once the app has been downloaded, the app permits <s style="color: rgb(230, 0, 0);">for</s> a covid19 positive person to alert other users whom he has been close to automatically. (less than one meter and more than fifteen minutes)

    For it to work, the application has to be download by many people. And the app retrieves other smartphones around it thanks to Bluetooth. Neither the geolocalisation nor the contacts on social networks nor the contacts on phone are used.

    France decided to develop its own app without the technology of Google and Apple. The source code is free to read on Gitlab.
