Angie is going to prepare a vegetarian meal for Thanksgiving dinner this year. Therefore, she will not be preparing meat - which is a non-vegetarian food. _________________ First lesson - English, not english. I, not i. ~A student of English |

Hi,
Please try to stick to proper spelling and punctuation. If you use 'SMS' or 'chat' language, you confuse the other learners even more. In addition, you enforce bad habits.
Thank you for your understanding. Regards, Torsten

It's a dinner you have at Thanksgiving. A dinner is a meal and Thanksgiving is one of the most important holidays in the US and Canada.

Thanks you very for your reply
Dear Torsten,
THANKSGIVING means when you say or show that you are grateful, especially to God
Thanksgiving (Day) A public holiday and celebration, held on the fourth Thursday of November in the US and on the second Monday of October in Canada, to remember the thanks that the people who first came from Europe gave to God when they gathered crops for the first time in their new country.

The origin of the word Thanksgiving comes from the Bible. Go to the book of Deuteronomy and read ch16:13-16. Thanksgiving is a celebration day for everybody and it has deeper meaning than the dinner is. |

Hi Torsten, I couldn't come in the forum due to my busy schedule in the business. However, I am much happy that you remember me and sent the e-mail. I couldn’t receive any mail in your side for a long time.
It will be better if you send me all e-mail regarding forum.
Thanks and have a nice thankgiving day
Beautiful Day
Too often we underestimate the
Power of a touch, a smile, a kind word,
A listening ear, an honest compliment,
Or the smallest act of caring,
All of which have the potential
To turn a life around…...!

What does 'knock on' mean here? | What does "well-off" mean? |
