Lyrics to Ms. Kati Svaby

[Mr. Kyaw Min Lwin]

I said "the sacrifice" in a sense that you are now saying.. The Good and the Evil. The Sacrifice and the Winner. They are very natural and universal. All type of politicians love to use 'the sacrifice' no matter what the consequences will be. That I hate politics and politicians, they simply can't build anything without blood and adversity.

kind regards.

Hello Mr. Kyaw,

What a surprise that I came here on this thread and I 've just found your letter to me!
Lately it happened to me that I surfed on the net and I found some letters to me what about I didn't get notifications.

I didn't receive any notification about them. This shocked me so much that I wanted to leave this course.

(I wrote to Torsten:
1."I gave up the effort for the notifications. How many letters I wrote without success?!"
2."If Torsten doesn't want to send me notifications, leave me out of this game. I got tired of it. I finished my learning on english-test.net once and for all. I will click the log out but I know it isn't enough, so please delete my name from the progress report.")

Next day I got a notification from a thread of Alan, and I logged in again because I wanted to answer it after I logged out again. But it repeat itself several times so few days later I wrote to Torsten that I would like to come back."
He answered:"Hi Kati, you don't need my permission if you want to use the forum. You are free to use it at any time.

So I returned. But they very rarely send me some notifications either about my personal letters nor the letters what arrive to the thread where I wrote earlier.I got over it. I don't care about it any more.Perhaps that's why I began this " My associations."

But I still wrote some words in my last letter to you. I would like to ask you to read it you consider it really good or not. I ask you as an old friend. Tell me the truth. And if you find some blunders I would be very grateful if you sign me.

I wanted already to say twice but I forgot, that this new photo of you is very good!
It is good to see each other how we looked when we were young. Of course you are young still now.

Regards:
Kati

Dear Ms. Kativ Suaby,

Thanks for everything, you are a Venus and I can't have any negatives with a Venus. Of course, I'd be of assistance to you if I saw any blunders with your writing.

But Beeesneees is the master in that and I admire his/her impeccable British English, as I'm a pro British English.

My photo was taken by Jacky, my British Teacher, who visited our temporary home in Sri Lanka, 1983. So you can see my genuine Venus smile in it? I have had this kind of hearty smiles for only three or four times up to now, 53. So I love this photo myself.

Honestly , we are old now but our ages still cannot be counted in terms of the age of civilizations. So I sing " As long as you follow and Long may you run. My lady.

kind regards.

Dear Mr .Kyaw,

Many thanks for both of letters. Your style very misterious. There are sentences which really let the readers think about it. To write a topic is a great dare to people who enjoy the good literature . I enjoyed. My favorite writer : Albert Camus: The stranger but of course there are even more. But there is the saying that if you went in a desert island which book you would take with you. I am sure that I chose this one.

You are right that there are books which give you different aspects when you read it. Camus could write this miracle with everyday words but not everyday conclusion. You wrote me about the free will. In this novel the idea of FREE WILL is dominant. When somebody is unable to correspond to the petty social conventions what the society demand from you, you will be a stranger than in Camus 'novel and the stranger will be punished with death penalty.
Yes, We have to live with these petty social conventions.
I know to write isn't a piece of cake. I don't win laurels with these topics. I hope that after my death my children will find it and then they can read what I couldn't tell them.
Nothing more.

Regards:
Kati Svaby

Hello Kyaw,

I would like to boast of my old English teacher's letter. I began to learn from him about 5 yeas ago. He is a writer and a poet also + a very good teacher than your Jacky, your British Teacher used to be. He also British.
He wrote to me:
"Dear Kati, it is so nice to hear from you! How are you? Did you have a good Christmas? Your English is excellent! I'm glad you enjoyed the films - they were made by my brother Ashley, the artist in Paris, and were shot on location at the family home in Wiltshire, England. The Lala he talks about is me! mon petit nom by which I'm called in my family, which derives from Alastair. I'll send you another film he made in Paris. I heard from Alex the other day - we're probably going to start having lessons again. I hope your health is good and I wish you all happiness in the new year, Ash"

Bye for now:
Kati

Dear Mr. Kyaw,

This evening I've read the all thread "She is my hero".
I don't want to make excuses because not me was the first who began an other theme.

Many thanks, for your incredible kindness as you tried conciliate us.
Now I see and I think Ralf also see that it was an enormous misunderstanding.
Ralf disparaged our commemoration, the poem what Hungarian people recite on this day whether they live in Hungary or in the US, in Canada, in our neighbours countries and everywhere on the world.

Maryjam described that they celebrated at the statue of this poet and recited this poem.This tradition remained at the Hungarian. About this poem nobody thinks what kind of poet was this young man who wrote this proclamation in a form of a poem. Besides,the translation isn't good, isn't so animating than the original one.

The lesson of this event that the Hungarian situation can't be understandable here in the Forum. I never more speak about it, but I read the English and the American newspapers and the article about Hungary I put on the thread of Speaking 20 minutes every day. On 16th Mars I put three articles: The Guardian, New York Times and BBC.

I quoted one sentence from The Guardian:
"Hungarians will not live as foreigners dictate, will not give up their independence or their freedom, therefore they will not give up their constitution either," he thundered in a speech with strong nationalist overtones."-this is a contemptuous sentence our PM. Bur unfortunately this is true.

I put only this single sentence. What was the reaction? Who answered was at loss to understand it.Because she is clever. There were French our commemoration and they said on TV that France claimed these rights in 1789 in the French Revolution. How could understand a west European who live in democracy I din't know for how many years? That's why I forgive Ralf it.

So I never try to make our situation understand with anybody. Who is curious find articles in the best newspapers.

Believe me the situation is terrible.

Dear Mr. Kyaw as you didn't know what means the nationalism in Europe, and I can explain very difficultly.
Today I wrote on the Google:Did the nationalism contribute to the break-out of WWII? Vast number of articles deal with it.

If you are interested what means the nationalism in Europe write this on the Google.
The nationalism was one of the reason of the outbreak of WWI and WWII.

Many thanks for your friendship.

Kati Svaby

P.S. We should finish poor Margaret Thatcher thread. Perhaps open an Margaret Thatcher 2. thread. What is your opinion. I promise that I will write only about her.

Hello Mr. Kyaw,

My Jacky was Ash. He also an English teacher from England.I boasted you once of his letter. Today I received another letter, he wants to come back to Hungary to teach us. He wrote to me.

[Kati Svaby]

Hello Mr. Kyaw,

As you wrote that you like our village, I thought that I take some pics about it. What you see here I've taken only the streets,(there is a one single high street and about five or six very short streets.)



In the street of the village the trees and flowers in April 2012 before Easter























[Buildings:

The gate of a peasant house



A shop you can buy everything



A grocery store



Protestant church from a distant



The protestant church more closely



The gate of the church



The pulpit where the priest stands to speak to the people.



Inside of the church



The garden of the church with old tombstones.



Our street.



At the end of the street the port of the ferry and the small Danube.



At the end of the street the view



Regards:
Kati Svaby
