Ein Email auf Deutsch - habe ich alles richtig geschrieben?

Hallo, wie geht's? Ja, ich kann auch ein bisschen Deutsch. Eigentlich lernte ich Deutsch in der Schule, bis zum Abitur, aber danach vergass ich viel. Zur Zeit will ich aber mein Deutsch üben und verbessern.

Es wäre wunderbar, wenn du mir mit meinem Portugiesisch helfen könntest, und ich kann auch natürlich mit deinem Englisch helfen. Auf Portugiesisch, Deutsch und Englisch können wir uns vielleicht miteinander “dreisprachig” unterhalten!

Wirst du dieses Wochenende Zeit haben, auf Skype zu sprechen?

Mark :-)

"facing off" is a clever way to say "to be or come in competition, to fight against." It's clever here because the actual phrase "to face off" coincides with people making ugly faces. Haha!' A "mug" is portrait of a person. The word "mugshot" is used to describe a police photo of a suspect who has been arrested. The word "mean" refers to "looking aggressive." Scores of: many in part: partially (not all the way, not entirely) Millions in damages are being sought: this means that the lawyers for this company (Kinder Morgan) want to have a trial where the protesters would be condemned to pay millions of dollars in penalties for hindering the work of the company. A meme poking fun: a meme is an image that people use on the internet to make a funny statement. Memes can be drawings or pictures of normal persons or animals. Usually, people go to a website where they can enter a funny sentence, as if the person or animal in the meme picture said that sentence. "to poke fun" means to laugh about another person. You can poke fun and the other person can laugh with you or you can poke fun and hurt the other person. "at the assertion": an assertion is a statement. The lawyer for the company Kinder Morgan made the assertion that the company's workers could not do their work because people were looking at them with funny faces. This is very silly to say. It is even sillier that the company now wants millions of dollars from all the people making funny faces. The memes make fun of the lawyer and the company for wanting money like that. "constitute assault": this is part of the sentence "[The] BC. Supreme Court head last week [said] that facial expressions constitute assault." A high court in Canada said that making funny faces is the same as {constitutes} being aggressive {assault}. I hope this helps!

Hi Gordon. You can find a free chat buddy or buy tutoring. To find a friend, you need to set up a profile. Hope this helps!

I would prefer to see my partner's face to study the facial expressions during speech. I would also like to hear the language.

JOB - FOREIGN COMPANIES OR STATE OWNED ONES

To decide on a suitable profession after graduating is always difficult for any individual. As a matter of fact, nowadays most graduates are more likely to work in foreign companies instead of state owned ones. The reasons vary from person to person depending on their goals but I believe that the crucial gaps between a foreign company job and a state owned one are exactly the salary and environment. Therefore, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this choice to clarify the motives.
First of all, graduates look for a job in foreign organizations due to its benefits.When we work for foreigners, they always (I would avoid words such as "always", "never", "totally", "all", etc) pay attention to the effects (?) we bring to their company rather than our relations (? do you mean connections?) or experiences. As a result, the salary rate mostly depends on one’s own [take out the word "own"] abilities. Therefore, the salary is equal (?) and justified . Another great advantage is the adaptive environment. In foreign companies, we often can be creative outside of strict regulations about time or workplace, whereas a state company will insist that the job duties are carried out timely and correctly. For example, we can work at home or a coffee shop without going to work in an office. Consequently, the job conditions in a foreign company are much more flexible than the ones we encounter when we work for government.
Besides those great advantages, a foreign company job can also have its own difficulties. Instead of paying a high salary, some foreign companies exploit their employees’ abilities so that they can gain the best profit without paying attention to the health care and safety of their employees. In addition, competition is frequently stronger and more severe. Not only must we outdo rivals to gain contracts for our company but we may also have to compete with other colleagues who might be more talented so that we can keep our position, which will cause a lot of stress and strain that is not good for our health in comparison with an easier and more comfortable job when we work for a state owned one. A good example of this are diseases like headaches and dizziness that can plague company officers.
In conclusion, the difference in benefits makes for difficult choiosing when graduates consider a job in a foreign company or a state owned one. There is, however, a growing tendency that more and more people choose to work with foreigners instead. I personally believe that the advantages of foreign company jobs outweigh their disadvantages because they can create a more liberal and creative society for everybody. [the last thought is not logical: no job can create a better society.] :-)
