First notebook entry: Introducing myself

I am learning English. I plan to travel to the USA.
My native language is Rassian Russian.
My profession is that of a veterinarian doctor. I enjoy travel, animals and others. other things.

 

A more natural way to say this is:

I am learning English because I plan to travel to the USA. My native language is Russian, and I work as a veterinarian. I enjoy traveling and love animals.

(Side note, "and others" is sort of implied in English, so it does not need to be explicitly stated.)

String is thin, small, and usually made of cotton. You might tie up a package with string. Lace is decorative fabric that has open portions to make a pattern. You might use a lace tablecloth to make a table look more fancy. Rope is thick and strong. It is basically a more heavy-duty form of string, but is not frequently made from cotton. You might use rope to keep large things together, like bales of hay. Straps are used to fasten things together. They require a lot of stability. You might have a shoulder strap that you use to carry a laptop bag. "Line" is used to describe a length of rope or string. You might say "I have a line of rope," when talking about materials. Cords are usually electric, and used to plug in appliances. A TV has a cord that you plug into the wall for power. Shoelaces (also called shoestrings) are the things on sneakers and running shoes that you tie together to keep your shoes on your feet. Whew! I hope that helps!

"Ain't" is a slangy, somewhat lowbrow way to say "isn't." Generally, it is used when you want to sound very informal, though some people use it in everyday speech. However, it is not considered "proper" English. It has no affirmative form of it's own, but I would say the closest thing would be "is."
