I am an English teacher currently working in China, learning Chinese. However, my long term relationship with second languages has centred around the French language. I really dont want to lose my grasp of the language while I am here in China so I want to use this website to interact with other french speakers/learners to mutually improve.

    Can anyone read Pinyin? My Chinese characters are not good enough to write an entry solely in characters. If I wrote an entry in pinyin would anybody be able to read it or understand it enough to correct it?

    La Rejeunissement Cela fait longtemps que j’ai été malade. Tu dois me pardonner à les deux ‘notebook entries’ derniers. Je pense que j’avais devenu un petit peu égocentrique (et aussi théâtral). Mais j’ai lu une essai sûr ‘Esquisse d'une théorie des émotions’ de Jean Paul Sartre. Ça parle de le fait que le sentiment est une échappatoire. L’action a l’air trop difficile alors on reste dans l’apathie, les gens préfèreraient de se vautrer dans apitoiement sur soi-même. Alors, ce matin, je me suis levé à bientôt pour parler avec un médecin, qui est très difficile en China, mais j’en ai assez d’étant malade. J’ai pratiqué le francais pour 2 heures, le chinoise, et aller chercher mes créations de la tailleur. Je suis content que j’ai pris conscience de l’importance de vitesse, ça peut être difficile mais c’est toujours vaut la peine. Mitch

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    I am learning* English for self-development. I am very interested in talking** with different people and I hope I will succeed.

    *I am learning (you are "learning" not "teaching", and because you are learning now and you have not finished learning we use the present continuous tense and say 'I AM learnING'.

    ** In English we always use "in" with "interested" 'I am interested in". Again we also use the present continous tense: 'Interested in talkING with'.


    I hope you will succeed too. Your English is very good already. I am sure you will succeed.

    Pourquoi ecrire? Sartre a se demandé “pourquoi ecrire?”. Je continue à me demander cela aussi. Sartre pensait que la langue est trop grande pour la craine humaine. Et, puisque en ce moment j’essai d’apprendre troi langue dans les nivaux tres differents, je dois convenis que il a raison. En ce moment j’habite en Chine. Et je passe les jours en noyant dans la Chinoise; une langue que je ne peux pas lire et qui je ne parle que un peu. Je regarde beaucoup de mes amis qui peuvent le parler trés bien, en particulairement mon colocataire qui que parle 4 langues, et je me sens tellement deçu. J’ai essayé de l’étudier mais, je ne peut pas vue rien d’amelioration. Et apres tout je ne peux pas trouve une langue dans laquelle je devrais penser, quand j’essaie de parler en français je pense en Chinoise, quand j’essaie de parler en Chinoise je pense en français, et quand j’essaie de parler en Polonais.... mon cervau s’arrêter. J’espere que ce probleme se fixer. Mitch

    Today's Exam.

    Today i had a 1) very important english exam. 2) If 3)I pass this exam maybe i will be able study ielts, so I will begin to prepare for the ielts exam. 4) but i was very scared about this exam. When i finished it, 5) i wanted to checked it .i found many mistakes but i was not sure it was true or faults  false . i still changed it .after the exam i asked my teacher the answers 6) .i found that i was wrong .

    1) "important" is and adj. Therefore you can put it before the noun "exam".
    2) After the 'full-stop' "." you must use a capital (BIG) letter. e.g. english exam. If not english exam. if
    3) This is the 'first conditional' a very useful structure: 'If I "verb" I will "verb". E.g. If I kill my students I will be happy. 

    4) You CANNOT start a sentence with a conjunction e.g. 'and', 'or', 'but'.
    5) When you use 'I' to talk about yourself you should make it a capital (big) letter. 'I' not 'i'.
    6) When using a "full-stop" you put the 'space' after the stop. e.g. 'Hello my name is Mitch. What is your name?' not 'Hello my name is Mitch .what is your name?'

    A men's dream!

    Yesterday, before going to bed, I read an funny article!
    After trying to rob a hairdressing salon in Russia, Viktor Jasinski, a 32 year old man, has been sequestered by the owner of the store who took him to the back of the store, undressed him, forced him to swallow some viagra, and used him as a sex slave for several days "to teach him a lesson".

    After escaping, the man first went to the hospital to treat his swollen testicles and then went to complain to the police.

    Olga (the hairdresser) acknowledged sexual relations, but insisted to say that she bought a new jeans to his ex-hostage, tha she gave him food and even money (1000 rubles) .

    In the end, they both have been arrested.

    ( Any corrections will be welcome :) )
    (it's quite idiomatic, but we would generally use the phrase "any corrections welcome" or "any suggestions welcome")

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself Alors, je me sens que j'ai devenu un petit peux sourd. Je reste, je stagne, je ne bouge pas. Ce matin je me dis que je le changerais; quel que chose doit changer. Alors, j'ai decider de m'ameliorer, de pratiquer mon francais, commencer d'ecrire encore, lire encore, dormir encore, vivre encore. Ce reve fanerai comme les roses, mais aide moi pour ce moment.
