For those partaking in the upcoming italki Language Challenge, here's a little push to help you focus your learning goals and how best to leverage the urgency of the italki Language Challenge.
October 10, 201722 First intensive lesson with Saunatina
Today our focus was on articles (the, a, an).
So in my speech I have a lot of mistakes regarding articles.
It has There are some interesting fact about a/an. I didn't knew know that before. This choice depends not on the first letter, it depends of on the first sound. F.e. you should say "an MBA", because the first sound is vowel, even if the letter is consonant.
Also I remembered a few new words, here they are:
1. Consensus. It means situation when somebody agrees with your opinion or actions.
2. Complain about. It means when somebody disagrees and telling tells you about that.
Also I remembered the word "unfounded" but forgot it's meaning =\
I figured out the difference between "do" and "make". "Make" means that you are making something by with your hands, usually something physical. And "do" means anything else.---
Good review notes! Thought it would be helpful if I gave you some corrections. Any words or letters I added are highlighted.

I come from Qingdao city, Shandong province. In the next year, I want to go to Australia working for to work on my PH.D. It is a nice thing I can go abroad to breath fresh air. That's a joke. But recently, haze wether weather become a comes daily one in most of China that and people are forced to wears their mask to avoid breathing poisonous air. When I walked to my dormitory in the street with my friend yesterday, the haze is was so huge thick that I can could not see the anything in front of me 1,000 meters away. Bright car headlights flickers in white air, looks like a line in the street and cars leave quickly, left leaving nothing but exhaust fumes. Everyone wants to live in a good environment. that Goverment should adopt a serious series of measures to make sure those who destroy air, soil, and water.
The last sentence is incomplete. "...make sure those who destroy air, soil, and water..." do what?

On Sunday, I was talking with a friend of mine. We were talking about the importance of respect between different cultures. Respect which has to be mutual. It doesn't I don't care if you don't share my same ideas, but you can try to understand them (if they aren't totally crazy, obviously!). I think that, only in this way, we can learn something from another culture, by making adjusting part of us to other mentalities.
I don't like the fear of differences, the fear of the other. I believe that we can learn a lot if we keep our eyes, and our minds, open to new experiences and to new people. We can enrich ourselves and broaden our horizons.-The last sentence of the first paragraph was a bit confusing. I think I corrected it to what you were intending to say.

I passed a wonderful summer holidays in Ireland and now that I am back home in France, I am missing this that lovely country so much. I would like to return as soon as possible.
People are friendly and nice, if you are lost they try hard to help you, always with a smile on their faces.
The landscapes are amazing, but the thing I liked most is the music. Great music, it is everywhere and everytime all the time.
It's a little big magic country what that makes me feel like at home.
I'll be back the next year!0 votedAugust 11, 20152
