    Improving!!!!

    Hi guys. I want to speak English fluently. I can speak it a little, and if u want I can teach u about Spanish culture and language. If interested, feel free to contact me. Thanks.


    Notes:

    - I just added some recommendations to make it sound more native. When writing <em>really</em> informal notes (eg. text messages), slacking off on the punctuation/capitalization and using terms like "u" is common, but especially with punctuation, it can be a fine line between informal and appearing non-native.

     

    Hope this helps!

    句话后面为什么经常说“呢”? 比如:“以前还有很多黑社会呢”,”我们讨论工作呢“,”离我想要的还差得很远呢“。 在问题里面为什么用”呢“我已经知道(比如:“你觉得呢”),不过在句话里面我还不知道。

    Strictly speaking, "-" is a hyphen (dashes are longer). Hyphens are used to join words or separate syllables of the same word (eg. when a word spills from one line to the next in a paragraph). They are also used in a number series (eg. phone number, serial number) or as part of a code. When reading the code aloud, though, many people say "dash" instead of "hyphen", so both would be commonly understood, even though "hyphen" is more correct. Dashes are longer in length and have a different usage (as only one example, referring to a span of years like "1799–1802", you would use a dash). Unless you are a typesetter or grammar expert though most people would probably not distinguish between the two when just reading a code or number aloud that included a hyphen.

    Stinking Stinky tofu

    Many foreigners don't like the smell of stinking stinky tofu because it's very stinking stinky.
    But I love it very much. It's one of the famous snacks in Taiwan. I eat it at least twice a week.


    [It's not best to begin a sentence with "But", but in informal writing or chat it is not uncommon. You could say "That said, I love it very much" instead. You could also combine it with the prior sentence: "Many foreigners. . . stinky, but I love it very much."]

    不好的帽子 两年前一个朋友(是女人,美国人)在北京买了一个帽子,但是一戴帽子就中国人对她忽然是不好的,好像中国人非常不喜欢这个帽子。帽子是蓝色和黄色的 (是一个 "baseball cap"),有两个龙,还有「龙」的汉子(繁体字,不是简体字)。 我的朋友不会说中文,所以没发现为什么有事。 你知道为什么人对一个龙的帽子不好吗,龙的帽子有不好的意思吗?

    I am hungry!!!

    I regret that I didn't eat anything at in the evening and so I am hungry now.
    It's raining outside, so that I can't buy anything outside because I am too lazy for that.
    I miss the food in my hometown, but it's so far for me.
    I will have to endure the hungry feeling hunger until tomorrow morning.

     

    [你英文说得不错,继续加油!有的修改只是建议,例如,可以说 "hungry feeling",不过 "hunger" 听起来像比较流利]
