My suggestions!

Post by behnam »

Hi Mohsen,

How are you? I hope you are fine. Thank you for the questions. Here are my suggestions. I hope they are correct. If you find them incorrect, please correct me without any hesitation.



1. I don't expect him to change his mind because I know he is very obstinate.
2. If you want to shop for the latest fashions or expensive souvenirs in New York City, go to Fifth Avenue. It is full of elegant shops.
3. Our teacher is a dynamic person, so she easily captivates the interest and attention of the students while she is teaching.
4. My father gets angry with us whenever we make a mistake. He has no tolerance for mistakes.
5. Teachers like obedient students who never break their rules.
6. We couldn't see the meteor shower last night because of the unfavorable weather conditions.
7. You should wait for your turn. You'd better not be so impatient.
8. Tom is so irresponsible; he never does his homework and never keeps to his promises.
9. Sarven is so fearless that he sometimes puts his life at risk.
10. Mrs. Smith always tells her daughter not to marry a dishonest man, who lies and cheats.

I hope to hear more from you.

All the best,

Post by Elham »

Hi,

I'm here to write! I don't know what I'm going to write but I've missed writing aloooooooooot! This has always been one of my interests; I've always loved writing...ohhhh what made me give up on it? what made me get emotionless about it? How could I not write? Elhammmmmm...have you forgotten how much you loved writing and how much it satisfied you? Have you forgotten how much you enjoyed it?

Why do we give up on our dreams? ......

I'm going to start writing here again... Although my English is not as good as before...But I'll try to recall it and practice both English and writing here again...

Love has finally succeed!

Post by [amal] »

Hi friends,

How are you?

After two days I have a wedding party and I am sooo excited about it! Because it will happen after a long suffer and many years of rejection, tears and stress. But finally love has won and challenged all the circumstances..

From this story, I have learned that we can achieve whatever we want but it just needs time and being patience. Above that, if we badly want somthing, we should fight for it and don't give up no matter how long it take.

I wish all the best for my best friend "the bride" and wish you all a happy life full of love and joyful days..

Love you,
Amal

Hi Elham,

Thank you very much for completing the sentences. Your answers are correct. Your English is great.

I'd like to draw your attention to the questions 9 and 12. In question 9, the second part plays a key role. In fact, the second sentence helps us choose the correct answer between 'confirmed rumours' and 'denied rumours'. Let's have a look at question 9:


9) In an interview the actress .......... that she will be quitting the show. She said she would be leaving at the end of the current series.


As it is obvious, the actress will leave so the rumours about her are true. Therefore, we should say:
9) In an interview the actress confirmed rumours that she will be quitting the show. She said she would be leaving at the end of the current series.

All your answers would be correct if we could replace the answers of questions 9 and 12!

Welcome Hurieh!

Post by behnam »

Hi Hurieh,

Welcome to this thread. Thank you very much for joining us. I got surprised when I saw you first post. Your writing is great. I hope we will help each other improve our English language skills through writing and reading in this place.

Please do not hesitate to share your experience in English learning with us. You can set some grammatical questions and ask us to answer them. Dear Setayesh used to do that, although for a very short time. It seems she is busy these days.

I hope to read more from you.

All the best,

Hi dear Behnam,

Thank you very much for your welcoming and praising my writing .I have no word to express my special gratitude. Your page is great and seems you and your cool friends are really literate based on your former posts. It's my pleasure to be a member of this unique and exclusive group.

I'm not completely familair to your methods and interest. please let me know what I should do exactly...Although I've never been a good follower, but I hope to keep up with you properly... {-; ...When I entered a group I tried to change their atmosphere for the sake of diversity with respect to their rules and opinions...I can't stand routine and traditional methods .I hardly get habituated to something and follow it for a long time. If I were successful in making a new approach in a group I would stay there, Otherwise I would abandon there. Routine affairs kill my talents, skills and abilities and in contrast, diversity revive me. I also do respect to the rules of your group and never expect you to confirm my whole ideas.Dear Behnam, I hope you look at the half full of the glass not half empty, and never consider it rude. In my opinion, by dividing responsibilities and creating new methods learning process will become more exciting and efficient.
As you well know, native English speakers use pharsal verbs more in their speech. I like to learn different phrasal verbs in sentence structures as much as I can. I also like to learn different and unknown expressions and idioms. I will adhere to your rules and laws.
I'm not sure whether or not you agree. I'm waiting for your permission.

Hi Hurieh!

Post by behnam »

Hi Hurieh,

How are you? I hope you are doing great. Thank you for the reply.

Actually, we haven't got any rules, regulations, laws, limitations, restrictions or whatever you call it. However, according to our bitter experience, politics and religion are two heated topics. These topics create tension, violence, and conflict. Amazingly, that's difficult to convince someone of political and religious issues. In fact, nobody gets convinced of those things. Therefore, that's peaceful and wise to avoid writing about these topics. By the way, degrading women is not acceptable. In addition to them, porn and dirty jokes are not allowed in accordance with an unwritten law that we all obey! {-:

When it comes to practising English, there is no limitations and restrictions on the skills. You can focus on phrasal verbs, grammars, collocations, idioms, proverbs, etc.

I hope to read more from you.

All the best,

Hi Behnam;

I'm quite well, up to my eyes in my thesis. I hope life is treating you well. Thanks for your replying and accepting my suggestion.
You are completely right. Discussing those controversial issues is completely wasting time and also unacceptable. I'll adhere to everyones's beliefs, attitudes whatnot. In psychology there is a rule that says "The best way for avoiding any conflict and quarrel is to keep from convincing others. The more we try to convince them to reject their ideas and confirm us, the more we will run in to failure.Because noboby likes to accept his/her failure."
I'll do my best to make you and our friends satisfied.

Expressions

Post by Hurieh »

Hi friends;
In this post we're gonna learn some expressions which are followed with examples. I draw your attention to these four expressions bellow. They're as easy as a piece of cake. You might be familiar with them. Look over and use them in your daily conversations.
==============================================================
1) Be in the same boat = Be in the same unpleasant situation

ex1: I'll have to stay up all night to study for that exam
I'm in the same boat !I'll have to stay up,too
Why don't we study together?
ex2: I can't believe that we got a flat tire.
Look across the street .those people are in the same boat.
==============================================================
2) I have news for you = I have something to tell you

ex: He just told me that I won't be able to work here anymore.
I have news for you. He just told the same thing to twenty other people.
=============================================================
3) Write something down = Write on a piece of paper

ex: My phone number is 642-5933.Can you remember that?
Probably not.I'd better write it down.do you have a pen?

NOTE:To write something is not exactly the same.you write a letter,but you don't write down a letter.you write down specific information such as phone numbers, addresses, notes, etc,in order to remember it.

==============================================================
4) Be going on = Be happening

ex1: What's going on in here?who are all these people?
Oh,hi,dad.we're having a party.I hope It's ok...
ex2: What's new?
Oh,there's so much going on.my sister just had a baby,our dog ran away.
We're going to move.

Good luck

Dear Mushaf I’m an Iranian girl and I’m living in Tehran. I saw that you’ve written about your major! Great! You’re studying business studies! It’s a very good major. Specially for ladies, although I don’t have any idea about your gender! As your major relates to business I wonder if there is any special working situation that you are fancy to work in at?

Thanks a lot for reading

Dear Hurie,

Welcome to our lovely thread.Honestly, reading your posts I couldn't help feeling jealous of your English {-; You have written so well. Well done. :-D

It's so nice to have you with with us here and practice English together. We ca also exchange ideas about different topics and learn from each other. You should have seen old days of our thread when it was very very busy and we would talk on many many topics, good old days...

But I believe every single person is a world by him/her self, also a new book. One of the most enjoyable things for me in life is to read others' books. As a matter of fact, not every one's book is interesting, at least fr me; but I smell your book to be worth reading, or at least go through it's pages and take a look depending on how much you let us! :-D

By the way, I'm Elham, 25 year old from Esfahan.I've studied Chemical Engineering and at the present I'm looking for job. I'm glad to make friend with you.

Hope to read more from you,

Eli

Dear friends;
Setayesh and Elham

I'm so pumped and excited of your hospitality that i can't express my feeling. Now I'm feeling such a bird that's flying in the air , near clouds...I have no words to express my sincere thanks; not only to you but also to dear Behnam who has gathered us here. I confess "YOU ARE ALL GREAT".
You praised my literacy, while your English is much better and you are also highly educated in your own majors . It's really nice of you. I'm so delighted to have such nice friends . Your statements were full of marvelous and friendly feeling that I could sense it apparently at the bottom of my heart, even through virtual space.
Dear Elham, you are ABSOLUTELY right. As we read in Imam Ali's Nahjolbalaghe, everyone is like a unique world. I DO believe this and this is why I like to hang out with different people with different thoughts, attitudes,social position ,age whatnot. Everyone has his/her flavour . Infact they look at the world from their own perspective. I try to hang out with them to learn at least a good tip of them. Altough i have lots of friends (loyal friends) arround myself, but i confess your friendship is something else. It's a great chance for me to expand the range of my friendship circle and have such educated and sincere friends even far from myself.
Dear Setayesh i really appreciate you for prising my comments on FB . I like to get acquainted to you and daer Elham much more. Although I'm a bit tied up these days, but I'll try to get in touch with you more by writing on this threads.
I wish all the best for both of you. Dear Elham I also wish you could find your favorite job as soon as possible, the one that you really deserve it.
Take care of yourself dear friends as much as a person who care about you hundreds Kilometer away , or even further.

Your's sincerely;
Hurieh

Common mistakes (using suggest correctly)

Post by Hurieh »

Hi dear friends;

What are you up to? There is no one here to show his/her feedback. I'm begining to think you'd fallen off the face of the earth and I'm alone here. But I won't give up.
I wanna share a simple tip with you. It doesn't hurt taking a short glance. check it out.
I'll explain how to use "suggest" correctly in our speechs. Look at these two sentences bellow.


^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
:nok: I hope you suggest us a good chinese resaurant.
:ok: I hope you suggest a good chinese resaurant.

***
:idea: know you must have got it's tip. We never use objects after "suggest" . We just offer an idea.
***
More examples:

:ok: We had no plan until peter suggested that we go to the new Japanese restaurant.
:ok: Can you suggest some spicy dishes ?
:ok: The nurse suggested not eating spicy foods.

I’m so sorry for being late in answering you. These days I’m so busy with everything in my life. I’m so happy seeing you active in this thread. Dear Mushaf I’m an Iranian girl and I’m living in Tehran. I saw that you’ve written about your major! Great! You’re studying business studies! It’s a very good major. Specially for ladies, although I don’t have any idea about your gender! As your major relates to business I wonder if there is any special working situation that you are fancy to work in at?

Thanks a lot for reading
Waiting to hear more about you.

Best wishes
Seti
