Unfortunately, I live in an embargoed country (Iran) and java.com doesn't let me to download Java file :-(. On the other hand, this email system doesn't permit to attach a voice message for you. Have a good time Mohadese |
Hello Mohadese, I was having the same problem but i finally could find a way.I have a version of Java downloaded that will probably work.I may be able to tell you how to install it. |

Dear all, It is the first time I record the message on the 'Speaking english 20 seconds a day" section. I think it is very good for people learning to speak english. I think we should have some plans to speak english with each other to improve our english speaking skills and increase our vocabulary. For example, we can discuss about one topics and we talk anythings about it and everybody in the site would see the comments spoke in english about the topics. From this way we can improve our english speaking skills and increase our vocabulary knowledge about many topics. If we discuss much about one topic and it seemly full of information we can change the topic. I want to begin the topic with "animal". We can describe about one animal and post voice message here to learn from each other. Please give me comments about my idea. Thank you. |

My name is chikhaoui. I'm tunisian. I live in a town, called El Kef, located 45 km near the Algeria border. El Kef is a nice town built on the heart of a perched Eocene syncline whose altitude is about 1000 m above the sea level. In this town there is no pollution. We always breath fresh air. Historically el Kef was the capital of the Numidian state which extended from Tunis, the present capital of Tunisia, and Algeria. this long periode of history is marqued by several archaelogical sites dated from Romain Empire to muslim periode. |

The steps you need to take to record your voice can be found here. If you have problems after trying that, you will find instructions and troubleshooting steps here: Recording voice messages on the forum. This is a long post, but you need to work through things one step at a time, checking whether your problem has been solved at the end of each step. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

Hi all, it has been a long time.
I have not been very active lately in the forum or in the skype sessions and I miss you all.
I always preferred the British accent so listen carefully and I will be glad to have any helpful comment or suggestion.
A few months ago I have started working as a volunteer translator for The Rosetta Foundation, this experience was unique and enriching. Most of the tasks I have taken were; translation and proofreading form English to Arabic. The foundation's platform made my work easier. In fact, it enables effortless interaction, feedback and painless search for tasks that suit your skills. Even though I was unpaid, I enjoyed it and I felt fulfilled since I spend my time "fighting" for a cause I care for, it was a new form of humanitarian work. As a language professional, I have also acquired a new set of skills that may be useful in my future career.

Hi everybody! My name is Ve and I come from VietNam. It's the third time I've posted my voice message. I simply want to communicate with all of you in English. So I think speaking English everyday is the best way to win. Like most people, I tried on many methods of learning English.I've got up early in the morning to learn, but it hasn't lasted long as many things went by and I almost forgot it, so I haven't finished my project. Now I think again and come back with more and more energy for English. Because English is the most popular language and very important. I don't want to lose my chance to get acquainted with you |
