Hi Kati,

It's easy to add a picture to any message you post on the forums:
If you have already posted the message, click the 'edit' button.
If you are creating the new message in a thread that is already started (like the my back yard topic), click the 'answer' button in one of the posts on the thread:
If you are creating a new message in a new topic, click the 'new topic' button.

All the above action will take you to the message editing window with the preview, like this:


There is an 'Add photo' command line just above the message window.
Click on 'Choose file' and find the photo you want to add, then follow the instructions.

By the way, you should have written:
"Will you please explain to me."

Thanks B.Z.

I'll try tomorrow.Because I understand what you explained but it is time-consuming and now it is very late and I am not a computer expert.

I have a question: Does anybody comment my accent ?

Thanks very much your correction. This was also new for me.I memorize: After please we have to use bare infinitive.

I hope I didn't make another mistake.
Have a good night:
Kati

Hello,

Yesterday I made a grammar mistake what BZ. corrected. That's why I filled in a test, a comparison when we have to use: infinitive, bare infinitive and gerund.
Here is my voice message.:

Hi guys.
I will read an English text which I had in my last English Consecutive Exam.
Here it is.
Masked gunmen on Sunday torched Gaza beach club shuttered by Hamas. One of the owners of "Crazy Waters" Club said about 40 gunmen had manacled and blindfolded a night watchman before the arson of an administrative edifice and restaurant overnight. The flames engulfed different parts of the club. The Hamas interior ministry denied any link between the attack and the closure and said investigations are in full swing to uncover the perpetrators of this crime to hold them accountable and indicted of the incident. In recent years, Hamas has stepped up enforcement of a ban on women smoking water pipes in public, saying it is against mores and has sought to prevent the mixing of the sexes in the already conservative territory.

They; professors at the university, say that we; I and my friends, study British English but, until now, I am not convinced that they teach us the intended British accent.

Ahmmm, I don't know why, really.

All what I know is that I am going to improve my English accent whether it is American or British in any way possible; I prefer British though. :(
Please comment on my post and voice message.
Thank you in advance.

Hello Blue 113
I think you are from India. Your accent tends to American pronuciation. Go ahead. You do it very well.

Hello. I'm gonna read an article from wikipedia. Can you comment on my accent. How does it sounds like? Would you understand something without looking on the text?

English is a West Germanic language that arose in the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of England and spread into what was to become south-east Scotland under the influence of the Anglian medieval kingdom of Northumbria. Following the economic, political, military, scientific, cultural, and colonial influence of Great Britain and the United Kingdom from the 18th century, via the British Empire, and of the United States since the mid-20th century, it has been widely dispersed around the world, become the leading language of international discourse, and has acquired use as lingua franca in many regions. It is widely learned as a second language and used as an official language of the European Union and many Commonwealth countries, as well as in many world organizations. It is the third most natively spoken language in the world, after Mandarin Chinese and Spanish.
