Hi Thu,
Please allow me to correct your entry.
I'm Thu.
I come from Vietnam.
I'm a frist year student in National economics university
I want to go aboard to study at Warrick University in England. But, at the moment, my English is not very good. Owing to your lessons, my English is improving. Thank you for helping.
Please compare your original post to my corrected one. And don't hesitate to ask questions!
Take care,

Hi, Amy
I always wondered if the sentence "I'm abroad" had a double-meaning :? :lol: |

. Next time you run into an American woman in your neck of the woods, Alex, ask her if she's abroad. Oh, and definitely let me know what her response was. :lol: . .

Hi sma,
These three are correct: The flight plan has been changed, <-- It was recently changed. The flight plan is changing. <-- It is being changed right now. The flight plan will change. <-- It will be changed before the flight.
These are incorrect: The flight plan has change. The flight plan will be change. but only because the 'd' is missing from 'changed'.
The flight plan has changed. <-- is correct. It has already been changed. The flight plan will be changed. <-- is correct. It will be changed some time in the future. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

(This is a phrase rather than a complete sentence.) Would you mind, please bring me a cup of coffee. <-- Would you mind bringing me a cup of coffee please? I was never seen in my life. <-- I have never seen such a thing in my life. (My guess) How much of weight <-- How much weight... (This is a phrase and needs finishing) How many weight <-- How much does it weigh? _________________ Cheers m' dears! |
