Hello everyone! I've been studying Mandarin at a Swedish university for three semesters, been learning French on and off for four months, did some Spanish earlier this year and I'm currently learning Czech for a small trip in the beginning of July! I'm mainly looking for language teachers and exchange partners, to help me with my Czech. I'm also interested in Mandarin Chinese, French and Spanish.

    Quelle est la différence entre "se promener à vélo" et "faire du vélo" ? Salut ! Je suis en traine d'utiliser Glossika (GMS) pour apprendre français et il y a une phrase là qui dit "She likes to ride her bicycle every day" et la traduction est "Elle aime se promener à vélo tous les jours". Pour moi, "promener" est pour aller à pied. J'ai déjà cherché cette expression sur la web (se promener à vélo), mais y a-t-il des différences entre ces deux expressions ? Merci beaucoup !

    Short Chinese wedding speech 大叫好！我叫贝恩睿，从瑞典来的。今天 咱们都很感恩戴德参加牛晓宇和徐丽丽的婚礼。那我知道 你们心里在猜度，这位老外在台上做什么？他是谁？他的西装是什么牌子呢？我告诉你： 三年前 一个三月黑夜 我见面了一个很特性的人。他不但马上给我介绍南京的最热闹的烧烤场，他而且成为了从欧洲以外的最好的密友。我在想念住了中国的时候，有好多幸福的回忆。最好的回忆之一 就是跟牛和朋友们一起唱这首歌。我触景生情，想起2013年，所以我很想唱这首歌。但是首先我要介绍另外两个人从欧洲来的。前同学 从荷兰来自 Rick和他女朋友Janneke，我们三个人要唱这首歌。其实 我们决定了 因为这个回忆包括牛晓宇 我们都要唱。 Hi everybody! My name is 贝恩睿, I'm from Sweden. Today, we're all very grateful for participating in 牛晓宇 and 徐丽丽's wedding. I know what you're thinking, what is this laowai doing on stage? Who is he? What brand is his suit? Let me tell you: Three years ago, on a dark March night, I met a very characteristic person. Not only did he immediately introduce me to the most bustling of Nanjing's BBQ areas, he also became my closest friend from outside of Europe. When I'm thinking of the time when I lived in China, I have so many good memories. One of my best memories is singing songs with Niu and our friends. Moved by the memories from 2013, I would like to sing this song. But first I want to introduce two other Europeans, Rick, a former classmate of Niu, from Holland, and his girlfriend Janneke. The three of us will sing this song. Actually, we decided that since the memory includes Niu as well, we all have to sing it.

    Band presentation in Chinese Janice Prix songs hook your ears with catchy melodies and intense beats, and then your brain with a series of vast emotional landscapes. Janice Prix 的歌曲用易记住的调和激烈的拍子要吸引你的耳，紧接用一系列广大的情感景观要吸引你的脑。 这个翻译怎么样？

    La motivation et le dynamisme Je sais que je n’ai pas écrit dans mon journal tous les jours ce mois. Je sais que mes études françaises n’ont pas été optimales tous les jours. Mais je continue de toute façon. Et maintenant, je vais essayer de traduire cette entrée à français, comme un exercise dernier avant je me coucher.

    What's the word you trying to sing at ~0:37? Seems like your adding a bit of a Spanish /θ/ sound there, am I correct? (:

    中国现代文学：周作人 周作人是个中国现代作家主要写白话的散文。他也是个五四运动中关键人，写了《人的文学》这篇散文。在那篇散文中，周作人是说人类找着新和胆大的东西比较儒家思想。从某种程度来说，是中国现代文学的开始，根很多西方作家的影响，比如易卜生、托尔斯泰和陀思妥耶夫斯基。指出周作人没有他的灵感的写作风格或意兴。 牢记，这是个很多作家出现的时代，所很简单批评东西，穷人很简单被教育。日本三十年前已经通过相同的革命，所浪漫主义和马克思主义都在东方的邻居成为的时候，在中国也影响了以同样的方式。例如，周作人在日本学了有一段时间。从另一方面说，美国和英国的文坛更澹，东亚的影响没成功。 现代文学不仅什么在现代中国生产的。古典文学（有时甚至用文言写的）和京剧蓬勃发展，而白话诗度过了一段艰难的时光，因为诗人对节奏没得到领悟力。 据说第一篇成功的中文现代短篇作品是鲁迅的《狂人日记》。为什么？鲁迅是谁？这门课，我们都会学到。

    På svenska!

     

    Hej!

    Jag heter Simon, jag är från (or "jag kommer från") Belgien och (jag) har är 16 år (gammal). Jag talar (or "Jag kan") engelska och spanska, och så pratar jag flytande franska flytande, förstås!* Jag vill gärna kunna tala (or "prata") svenska**. Jag vill åka på semester gå i till Sverige. Jag talar inte svenska bra, tyvärr … Men jag lära mig varje dag! Jag hoppas att jag gå kan tala snart svenska snart talar!

    Hej då och tack så mycket!

     

    Red = Error that needs to be changed

    Green = Word added by me

    Blue = Suggestion how to rephrase something, or pointing out that a word could be omitted

     

    In Swedish, we never write languages or nationalities with capital initial letters. It's reserved for countries, nations, regions, etc.

     

    * = I know that your mother tongue is French and I'm guessing you want to say that you speak it fluently, but you also speak English and Spanish, right (but not 100 % fluently)? It would be therefor good to add something in between those two statements, to get your message clear.

     

    ** = I'm guessing this is about dreaming you COULD speak Swedish, rather than you wanting to speak it in general, am I right? A more common word, sounding a little less strict/formal, is "prata" instead of "tala". It's not wrong to use it, but it helps loosen up the tonality a little bit.

     

    <em>Without notations:</em>

    男人在邮局开枪 一个36岁的男子冲进雷蒙娜邮局大喊大叫每个人都让开。扛着一枝猎枪，他爬上到台面，告诉大家躺在地板上。他朝地板发射一发子弹了。 男子下令所有的客户和员工坐下看他。他说“跟着我说：我恨邮局！”大家跟着他说了。他发射了一遍，这次瞄准窗口。窗玻璃摔得粉碎。 三分钟后，5辆警车到邮局前，警灯闪烁，警笛尖啸。用着扩音器，一名警察告诉男子倒走出来双举手。 男子大叫“我直到邮局支付我的痛痒才不出来。两年前我的汽车被一辆邮政卡车撞上了。我的背疼死了，不能工作了，老婆抛弃了我。我拍案而起。“ 一段时间后，男子平静下来了。他发布了里面所有的人。下午7点男子倒走出来双举手。警察给他带上手铐，把他在警车后座上，开车把他送到了派出所。 A 36-year-old man stormed into the Ramona post office yelling at everyone to get out of his way. Carrying a shotgun, he climbed up onto the countertop and told everyone to lie on the floor. He fired a shot into the floor. The man ordered all the customers and employees to sit up and look at him. He said, "Repeat after me: I hate the post office!" Everyone repeated the words. He fired another shot, and this time he aimed at the window. The window glass was shattered and went everywhere. Three minutes later, five police cars arrived in front of the post office, lights flashing and sirens wailing. Using a bullhorn, a police officer told the man to walk out backwards with his hands up. The man yelled, "I'm not coming out until the post office pays me for pain and suffering. A postal truck ran into my car two years ago. My back is killing me. I can't work anymore. My wife left me. I can't take it anymore." After a while, the man calmed down. He released all the people inside. At 7:00 p.m., the man walked out backwards with his hands up. The police handcuffed him, put him in the back seat of the car, and drove him to the police station.

    English grammar help Hi guys! I have an assignment where we're supposed to identify subject, object, aux verb, prepositional phrases and what not. I'm trying to find good resources online for this, but I don't know where to start. Now, I've got a sentence where my mind just goes blank. I can see a verb, that's basically it. "The men were the British Prime Minister, David Cameron, and the President of the USA, Barack Obama." 'were' — that's it. That's a verb. But "the men"? Can that, in some way, be a pronoun? Does the sentence lack a subject? Gah, this is killing me! Please help on my way here. (:

    Britain and the US' relationship The closeness between Britain and America in the past has been described as "the special relationship". But there has been speculation that, for Mr Obama at least, the special relationship is... not that special. 以往，英国和美国的亲密关系描述了“特殊关系“。但起码对奥巴马，人们推测那个特殊关系……不怎么特殊。 Now both men are keen to show that on matters of policy they have plenty in common. In Times newspaper, they wrote that both were "coming of age" at the same time, and seeing "eye to eye". 现在，他们都想告诉人他们的政策事宜有共同之处。在《泰晤士报》中，他们写了都是同时进入中年的，看法相同。 As for the special relationship, they call it "an essential relationship". Nick Robinson, the BBC's Political Editor, says that the two men are not pretending to be bosom buddies but want to be seen as close allies. 关于特殊关系他们叫它“一个重要的关系”。尼克·罗宾逊，英国广播公司的政治编辑，说他们两个人不故作密友，但希望视为亲密盟友。
