I live in Toronto, Canada and have been teaching myself Spanish for the last month or so. I would love to be fluent in this beautiful language (espanol). I like to read (ruiz zafon!), do stupid things, and above all else play soccer/futbol/football. Barca, Barca, BAAAAAARCA.

    Though it is not really normal to use "kick on", it is obviously used as a football-related pun (play on words). It really just means that Fergie wants United to "keep on playing well" after beating the Wolves.

    Both ways are technically correct, however, I would personally say it in a different way altogether "I don't like (or enjoy) missing out on all the fun". As for the second sentence, yes you can say it like that. It's "interested" though, not "intrested". Edit: I misread the second sentence as "doesn't feel good". Thanks for pointing it out Linguafan. "Missing all the fun don't feel good" is not correct and should be "Missing all the fun doesn't feel good".

    Yes, lots and lots of them! "Fuck" is perhaps the most popular of them all.

    As the answer above me says, "Any help would be appreciated" is perhaps the correct/better way of expressing it. Though you are not technically incorrect in what you've written, it does not sound very natural in English and would not really be used. Also, when you say "Whoever helps would be appreciated", you are saying that whoever does the helping, that person is going to be appreciated. By saying "Any help would be appreciated", you are saying that it is the help that you appreciate, which is the correct way.

    Very quietly I take my leave as quietly as I came I take my leave as quietly as I came.

    I'm accustomed to log into my QQ(a software like MSN) everyday, and the moment when I was to log on it again tonight, my heart sinked. sank.
    There is someone I miss very deeply, somehow I can't connect with him, for we can never be together—a thousand time no  a thousand times over.So last night, I decided not to log on to QQ any longer until I removed my deep thoughts for him. Just now, when I wanted to log on to it again, it seemed that there was a string in my heart that pulled me back. A a voice from my heart told me that "you can't". Now I realized that once we try to escape something, and when it reappears in our mind, we will be are afraid to face it, no matter how brave we were. are.
    The only thing I can do is to treasure the memory,happy or blue.Dear friend, I know how busy you are, you seldom have time to see me. Very quietly I take my leave,as quietly as I came; yet I won't I wave good-bye before you, so I can console myself that we are never apart,you are eternal in my heart.

    When you are using "due to" to mean "because of" you always include the "to". This is always the case. You can use "due" on its own but it is usually at the end of a sentence and has a different meaning. For instance, "When is the money due?" meaning perhaps "When do we have to pay the money?". However, you could say "What is it due to?" meaning "What is it because of?" or "What is it a result of?"
