Hi Torsten,

Thank you for your advise. It's great for me to find out that i have to practise more and more. Oh Torsten, when will i be able to express my idea as well as you? I hope it will happen in near future.

Regards,
Rose


Hi Rose,

As you know learning English is process and you already are able to express your ideas quite well. The important thing is that you do have your own ideas and if you want to express them you will find the means to do so. Considering the fact that you are still very young and that your native language is Vietnamese, you have achieved a remarkable level of English. My mother tongue is German so for me it's much easier to express my thoughts in English than it is for you.

What you can do if you don't know whether a certain phrase is commonly used or not is google it.

Let me know what you think.
Regards,
Torsten
PS: "Advise" is a verb so your sentence should read "Thank you for your advice."

Hi Ranee! #19 (permalink) Tue Dec 11, 2007 5:07 am   Hi Ranee!
 

Hi Ranee,

You are welcome here on this forum where you will get lots of things to learn. Let me help you right from the beginning.

Don't say: "We can learn English each other."

Your sentence should be: "We can learn English from each other." :)

One more thing, as you are a learner of English and curious to learn it really, always capitalize the first character or letter of a word that shows some subject and name of a person or place. Such nouns are called proper nouns.

So, you should write: "English" and not "english". :)

Other some examples:

Vietnamese
History
India
Rose - a person's name, otherwise it would be "rose" - a flower.

Also avoid abbreviations for the time being.

I wish you all the best! :D

Yours friend,
Gopal.

Hi Gopal,

Thank you very much,

I think you are right, that's my bad to type randomly, I always ignore the letters that I type, I'll watch and remember it, start from now.

Hi Chandu,

It's a good thing to know that you are really eager to learn English. You are already using it so well. :)

Yes, you should learn new words everyday. But your point is also right that you find it difficult to frame sentences using new words.

Well, it is not a problem at all! Let me show how easily you can do it.

Consider this sentence:

I want to get rid of my old bad habits.

I assume that you already know the meaning of the italic phrase. Now I am going to use some other word for it.

I want to eradicate my old bad habits.

The meaning of "to eradicate" is "to get rid of something".

Use this "Substitution" method and you will find it very easy to frame sentences using new words. The main thing is that you assosiate a new word or phrase to something which you already know. As I am working right now, I will explain you later on in more details.

Have a good day! :)

Yours friend,
Gopal.

Hi Gopal,

Thank you for your valuable suggestion. I will do this from now onwards. I am remembering 2 to 4 words daily. I do practice the sentence forming.

I have a doubt that last week I attended an interview, they asked me to write an email to the team leader then I wrote the e-mail.

"Dear sir,

I am suffering with fevour. "Because" Yesterday I was late to home from the office I think it is from cold. Doctor has told me to take 2 days rest. So Kindly give me two days leave. As soon as I get out from the fevour I will give my present to office."

In that e-mail I used "because" word (telling the reason). but they underlined that word and crossed Why? Please let me know the reason.

Thanking you.

Hi Gopal,

I do miss you, too. I have had such hard days that I could not read or give you any reply. I had to do some translation and I did not even have enough time to sleep. I have finally finished it and then immediately accessed this site to talk with you. How are you, my dear friend? Ah Gopal, to ask about everything in general, we have "How's thing?"/ "What's up?"/ "How does thing go with you?"(Is it correct, or do we have other ways? I can not remember this.)

Gopal, I was chosen as the best student of my Department to meet my university managing board (I study at Business English Department. I was quite happy to hear this news and I did want to share with you. Give me your congratulation, please! :D

I am very tired and I think that I should go to bed now. I will come back and talk with you tomorrow. Good night my friend!

Regards,
Rose
