Hello, guys.
I'm Noriko from Japan, an English learner, and a teacher of the Japanese language.
In order to let my student practice writing in Japanese, I just signed up on this website.
I used to use Lang8 but it closed now, so I searched some good websites and finally found this site.
Now a days, we can use AI to correct sentences.
How come do you use this website?
One of the reasons I use this is that we can communicate with people, not AI.
If I wonder if I'm not sure that my sentence is correct, I would use AI to check it. In addition, it teaches some better expression as well.
But it is no more than corrections.
On the other hand, we can communicate to people while correcting sentences. That is so awesome because it's the purpose of languages.

Heute möchte ich in New Haven klettern, weil ich andere Frauen kennenlernen möchte. Normalerweise klettere ich am Dienstag, aber ich war so krank und müde. Jetzt fahre ich nach New Haven, allein zum Klettern. Ich liebe Klettern, da ich meine Gesundheit verbessern kann. Zum Beispiel klettere ich einige Routen mit Schwierigkeitsgrad 5.8 in den USA. Boah!

Es gibt viele Dinge, die ich jeden Tag mache. Ich liebe gesunde Gewohnheiten zu haben und ich versuche aktiv neue gesunde Gewohnheiten in meinem Alltag zu integrieren. Das erste Beispiel, an dem ich denken kann, ist Zähne putzen. Ich putze meine Zähne mindestent ein mal pro Tag und eigentlich meistens zwei mal pro Tag. Ich weiss wie wichtig es ist. Früher hatte ich mal Füllungen bekommen und es war so ein unangenehmes Gefühl, dass ich es nie wieder erleben möchte. Ich glaube es ist nicht sehr wahrscheinlich, dass ich in meinem Leben nie wieder Füllungen bekomme, aber man kann nur hoffen. Das zweite Beispiel ist abends mein Gesicht nur mit Wasser zu waschen und danach mein Gesicht einzucremen. Ich habe sehr trokene Haut und wenn ich mich nicht eincreme, geht mein Haut ab und sie verdünnt sich. Dann tut sie relativ viel weh und wird sie rot. Was aber sehr gut bei der trockenen Haut ist, dass ich fast nie Pickel bekomme. Es gibt immer Vorteile und Nachteile von etwas. Mein letztes Beispiel ist Pyjamas anzuziehen! Ich schlafe nie mit Aussenklamotten. Ich liebe es in einem sauberen Bett mit sauberen Pyjamas, das man nur Zuhause anzieht, zu sein. Ich verstehe wirklich nicht, wie man mit dem gleichen T-Shirt den ÖPNV benutzt und den ganzen Tag drin schwitzt und danach damit ins Bett geht. Na ja, jeder hat eine andere Vorstellung von Hygiene.

Da ich keinem Lernbuch folge, lerne ich Tiernamen und andere derartige "grundlegende" Vokabeln erst dann, wenn ich auf sie in irgendeinem Video stoße. Heute habe ich z.B. das Wort "Schlange" gelernt, und zwar in seiner Hauptbedeutung Mir ging ein Licht auf: das Wort Warteschlange ergibt auch etymologisch Sinn! Die deutsche Sprache hört nie auf, mich zu überraschen. In mein Heft für lustige und logische deutsche Wörter und Redewendungen erfolgreich hinzugefügt!

En escuela los hacen los niños leer y analizar los libros que realmente no parecen interesantes para ellos. El programa literario escolar acá es bastante aburrido y deprimido, pero hay un libro, que alumnos tienen que estudiar, cuyo nombre suena muy misterioso y emocionante; me refiero a “Las almas muertas” por N. Gogol, que, de verdad, ni siquiera trata de nada oculto y es muy aburrido, pero no es lo de que quise hablar. En las lecciones de literatura averigué, que Gogol iba a escribir tres partes del libro para representar el camino de redención del protagonista, pareciendo a “La comedia divina”. Como dijo nuestra maestra, la obra debería haber sido muy grandiosa y revolucionaria, pero en realidad Gogol solo escibió el primer libro y tiró el segundo en fuego, ya que se frustró mucho con el. Me pregunto, ¿Como sería el mundo si Gogol hubiera escrito este magnum opus? Tal vez nada cambiaría y yo seguiría evitando leerlo, pero ¿Quien sabe?
Los libros que sí me gustaría leer si existieran son las obras de Diógen de Sinope. Apesar de ser el primer pranker, el tipo tenía ideas, que me parecen muy interesantes. Sin embargo, ninguna de sus obras ha sobrevivido hasta nuestros dias. También el fuego en la biblioteca de Alejandría fue un grave catástrofe que destruyó un montón de libros y, además, conocimientos. Es lamentable, que hay cosas que hemos perdido por siempre y nunca podremos devolver.

Earlier I really didn’t like drinking coffee because it seemed to me too bitter for my taste. However, time passed and now I like drinking it, although it happens rarely. Usually I drink coffee adding some milk but without any sugar.
Also I like drinking black or green tea when I have a meal. I don’t put any sugar in my tea. I can drink strong tea and watered-down tea.
And also I sometimes really like drinking fresh juice, especially orange and cherry juice and maybe apple juice. I know that pomegranate juice is very healthy but I don’t like its taste.
In hot weather I try to drink more clean water to support water balance in my body.

Als ich ein Kind war, verbrachte ich jedes Wochenende bei meinen Großeltern. Früher wohnten sie auf dem Land. Ich erinnere mich noch genau daran, wie wir im Garten gespielt haben und meine Oma uns immer Kuchen gebacken hat. Am schönsten fand ich die Abende, wenn wir alle zusammen am Tisch saßen und Geschichten erzählt haben. Diese Zeit war wirklich unvergesslich.

The first accurate map of Japan was created during the Edo period. At that time, there were no airplanes or rockets. So, people actually walked along the coastlines and measured distances to make maps. The person who spent 18 years traveling all over the country in this way to complete an accurate map of Japan was Tadataka Ino-伊能忠敬.
Tadataka had been interested in the universe since he was a child. He was curious about how the stars and the sun worked, and how big the Earth was. He was so good at calculations that even adults were surprised. He probably had a desire to continue studying and become a scholar. However, at the age of 18, he got married at his parents’ request. At that time, he became part of the Ino family. (His original name was Koseki-小関.) He took over the family business, a sake brewery, and worked very hard.
Even so, he never forgot his childhood dream. Later, he decided to study again while traveling, and he devoted himself to learning, even sacrificing sleep. At the age of 56, he set out on a journey with his companions to create a map of Japan. Over many years, he conducted surveys all across the country. It is said that he walked about 40 kilometers every day. In this way, he succeeded in creating a complete map of Japan.
He finished measuring the entire country at the age of 72. Although he died at 72, his companions carried on his work and completed the map. At that time, the average life expectancy was around 50, yet Tadataka continued to travel across the country with a positive attitude and great dedication. I think his spirit was truly noble.
If I were in his position, I might think that at 50 it would be too late to learn something new and give up. I might even feel that I didn’t have much time left to live. And yet, he devoted his time and energy to creating a map of Japan with determination and optimism. I believe that this achievement was made possible by his truly noble spirit.

Nowadays, people pay more and more attention on holidays, because it is generally believed that holidays revive the spirit and renew the soul. From my perspective, this assumption is correct under specific conditions.
Genrally speaking, holidays are believed to have a meaningful impact on people’s spirits and well-being rather than being merely superficial. However, most of people just squander large amounts of money on accommodation, food and entertainment. Although they do relax during their trips, I think they are just replicating their usual lifestyles in different cities instead of seeking deeper and more meaningful experiences that can truly nourish their minds and souls.
If people want to achieve this goal, they should endevour something totally new. Last year, I couldn't stand with the job pressure anymore, so I decided to quit my job and then flew to California for a brief holiday. After staying in San Francisco for several days, I took three buses to a remote town called Garberville, because I was going to stay in local farm for a month. It was a curious and excited experience to me, because I did some light farm works for a host from Monday to Friday in exchange for fresh farm produces and cozy accommodation. The owner's family treated me warmly and selflessly, for example, they invited to join their family dinners from time to time, they taught me some basic knowledge about flora and fauna and they took me to other nearby coastal towns by car on weekends. During my stay in the lovely farm, my spirit and soul were comforted because of the host's care, animals' accompany and breathtaking scenery. I wouldn't gain this experience if I traveled in those big cities and followed a standard tourist routine. I still look back fondly on this trip, because it has a positive and lifelong influence on my spirit and soul.
In conclusion, this opinion can come true under certain conditions. Only after experience something meaingful during holidays can people revive their spirits and renew the souls.
