Les chiens
Avant d'avoir adopté un chiot, je croyais que je n'aimais pas les animaux domestiques. J'avais des poissons quand j'étais petite, mais c'est pas la même chose, et en plus, ils sont tous morts très vites. Apparemment, je ne prenais bien soin d'eux. Mais j'adore notre chiot et j'arrive à prendre soin d'elle. Elle s'appelle Gracie. Elle est un(e?) labradoodle miniature. Elle aura quatre mois la semaine prochaine.

A Reply to My Friend.
I often felt that I lived in a beautiful world and a nice society, and that is true. It only takes decades for our society to make such big progress. Even in the mid-1980s, on the season of our graduation, one of my classmates said to me: “after I got a job, I would buy a basket of eggs, and I eat it at anytime when I wanted.That was his biggest ideal at that time. Also, I have never thought that I would be able to live a life like today’s. So I am very grateful to our world and our country. I often work hard and study hard so that I will live up to the great era.

Mon Premier Écriture
Bonjour à tous. Je viens de trouver ce site et je suis surexcitée de recevoir des conseils en français. J’ai appris le français au collège et lycée, pendant 4 ans au total. J’ai essayé de continuer quand j’ai commencé à l’université mais il n’y avait pas aucune classe de français disponible.
Maintenant je regarde les émissions français sur Netflix pour améliorer mes compétences. Mon favori en ce moment, c’est Zone Blanche. Je le trouve un peu sombre, mais surtout divertissant et mystérieux.
Merci de me corriger!

フェイスマスクはちょっと格好いいじゃない
これは少し中二病かもしれないが、フェイスマスクはちょっと格好いいと思う。コロナウイルスの前、私の国の人はフェイスマスクを着用しないけど、今はもちろんどこに行っても、皆は着用している。一番人気なフェイスマスクは多分その青い使い捨てマスクが、綺麗な再使用型のマスクを着用している人もいる。そのマスクのデザインは普通の顔より面白いと思う。だって皆の口の形は大体同じし、本当に世界に見せる必要があるか。顔に比べて、マスクは色々な形や色や絵などあるし、私はマスクの方が見たい。もしフェイスマスクは本当に人気になれば、健康規制がなくても人は着用し続く。今でも、たくさんの有名な会社は特別なマスクを作っている。そのマスクはもうファッションアイテムだろう。そんなマスクは高いし、買った人は多分使いたい。

Corazones
Hoy mi madre sugerió que jugáramos los naipes después de la cena. Jugamos "Uno" durante media hora hasta que mi madre tuvo que unirse a una llamada con sus amigos de la universidad. Mientras ella habló con ellos, mi padre me enseñó cómo jugar al juego de "Corazones." Su padre (mi abuelo) nos había enseñado a mi hermana y yo desde hace casi 15 años, pero me lo había olvidado con el tiempo. Es un juego bastante interesante y además, quiero mejorar mi habilidad de estrategia.
Tengo recuerdos bonitos de jugar naipes con mis amigos durante entre las clases o durante viajes de camping.

Very Close to a Crisis
This past Monday I talked to one of my language partners, and had noticed her hair was unusually messy. Every time I see her, she uses her fingers to arrange her hair. She always looks like an absent minded professor, and actually, her husband is a real professor at an Australian University studying Catalist. That is to say he's trying to find the best method to convert
Hydrogen into electricity with the catalyst for a long time.
She didn't realize her hair had been messy at that time. So I've thought that something happened to her, and I knew she didn't get enough sleep last night. To my surprise, a forest fire happened on a mountain near her home yesterday, and it was coming closer to her house. She and her family all had been on alert for all day long.
The closest distance was 5 kilometers from her home, and some of her neighbors had already evacuated. It's so frightening and scared, all of her family was watching the forest fire coming closer to home. When they were about to decide on evacuation at 3 o'clock after midnight, the direction of the wind suddenly turned to the South. The forest fire had made a right turn in the direction of travel.
Fortunately, the forest fire didn't come, but there were a few houses that were burned out by the forest fire. Even last year there was a very big forest fire in Australia, and Australian government almost gave up extinguishing at that time. The forest fire lasted several months. It had not rained for a long time. I guess that it's because of global warming caused by Carbon dioxide emissions.

Dankbarkeitstagebuch 1
Kürzlich habe ich angefangen, ein tägliches Dankbarkeitstagebuch zu schreiben. Zuerst habe ich gedacht, dass ich es in einem echten Tagebuch schreiben würde, aber wenn ich statdessen hier schreibe, kann ich gleichzeitig Dankbarkeit und Deutsch üben.
Heute bin ich halt dankbar, dass es Seiten wie Langcorrect gibt, damit wir alle einander helfen können, neue Sprachen zu beherrschen. Und besonders jetzt, wenn das Reisen für die meisten Menschen fast unmöglich ist, finde ich es toll, dass wir das Internet nutzen kann, mit Menschen weltweit zu reden und von ihnen zu lernen.
Hoffentlich schreibe ich wieder Morgen. Bis dann, und danke für eure Zeit!

El idioma y la cultura
He leído que necesitas gustarte la cultura de un lugar para aprender su idioma. No estoy seguro de que sea la verdad. ¡De hecho, opino que es falso! Solo necesitas la motivación, y no tiene que ser una fascinación con la cultura. Aunque la desarrolles con tiempo, creo que es posible que nunca la sientas.
Personalmente, aunque mi afinidad de las culturas de los países en que se habla español ha crecido a lo largo del tiempo, no era inmediato. Cuando empecé a aprender español, estaba en la escuela secundaria. Siempre me ha gustado los idiomas, así que solo era por casualidad que eligiera estudiarlo. Habría estudiado cualquier otro idioma también, no me importaba. La cultura no es tan importante para este proceso. Cuando era niño, hablé aleman competente, puesto que había sido una necesidad urgente.
Incluso si tienes una afinidad de la cultura del país en que se habla el idioma que estudias, no significa que se asegura tu camino hacia la competencia. Por ejemplo, tengo muchos amigos que llevan aprendido un poco de coreano, ya que les gustan a los grupos de K-pop. Sin embargo, ningún de ellos es más que un principiante. Para aprender un idioma, tienes que tener una o más motivaciones fuertes. Pero eso es todo. Ninguno de ellos es más importante de los otros.
Dos oraciones con "ni que".
1. ¿Te gustan estas botas? Ni que las pusieras a la escuela.
2. ¿Has oído lo de Juán? Ni que fuera a necesitar toda esa comida.

Sentences 006: Lab results, avoiding jargon, going along
My reservations about this experiments have been vindicated by the laboratory's results.
"I think I understand what you mean, but I doubt that it will come over to a broader audience if you use that much business jargon."
"I will go along with you as your recommendations have always proven useful in the long run"

1.2
Some Catholic priests were aware of their intentions and tried to dissuade them; they did not, however, notify the government. Traitors rented a house near Parliament using fake IDs and stockpiled 36 barrels of gunpowder into the cellar right beneath it. Guy Fawkes was left to set off the explosion. However, the 26th of October, an anonymous letter was sent to Lord Monteagle, a catholic gentleman, advising him of the plot in order to prevent him from attending the event. Instead of doing as told in the letter (escaping and burning it), he promptly notified Robert Cecil, Earl of Salisbury and James’ chief minister. At first, he seemed to take the tip-off coolly, but odds are he just wanted to make sure the traitors would carry on their plan and be caught red-handed. The night of 4th November, royal officials searched the cellar and arrested Guy Fawkes, who was tortured, tried for treason and executed.
It is widely assumed that Francis Tresham, Lord Monteagle's brother-in-law, wrote it, albeit he managed to convince his fellow plotters otherwise. Another possible sender would be Salisbury himself, in which case, the plot would have just been a propaganda coup for the government. Moreover, there are some mysteries surrounding the plot that support this hypothesis, such us how they managed to move 36 barrels across River Thames and to carry them with no one the wiser or the fact that the government had a monopoly of gunpowder.
Catesby insisted in continuing as planned and moving on to the second part of the plan. They intended to gather Catholic gentry from England and Wales, but only 50 joined them. They were eventually found and Catesby and other two were shot dead. Some others were arrested.
In celebration of his survival, James I ordered that the English people should have a great bonfire on the night of November 5th (Bonfire Night). Traditionally, an effigy of the Pope was burned. Nowadays, 'Guys' (Guy Fawkes) are burned instead.

1.1
I'm trying to improve my English by reading stuff and rewriting immediately after a text using my own words without looking at the original source. Therefore, I'd be very appreciative if you could spot any mistakes or unnatural words and sentences out there. Thank you!
After Elizabeth I died childless in 1603, James I of England and VI of Scotland became king (1603-1625), who had inherited the Scottish throne when he was only 13 months old. His childhood was turbulent, and later on married Anne of Denmark, with whom had 9 children. James I was a strong advocate of royal absolutism and the divine right of kings, which asserted kings derived their authority directly from God and, therefore, could not be held accountable for their actions by an earthly authority (such as Parliament), only by a divine authority. This earned him a reputation for narrow-mindedness and conflict with an increasingly self-asserted Parliament, which set the stage for the rebellion against his successor, Charles I. He commissioned a version of the Bible, which remained the standard text for more than 250 years - the King James’ Bible.
The Gunpowder Plot
13 young catholic gentlemen from the midlands had being conspiring a frustrated plot led by Robert Catesby to blow up the king, the House of Lords and House of Commons the 5th of November 1605 on the ceremonial opening of Parliament. The family links of a fellow plotter, Thomas Percy, to the powerful Earl of Northumberland, for whom he worked as steward, would help the conspirators gain access to Parliament. After the explosion, they would gather together the Catholic gentry of the Midlands and seize Princess Elizabeth, the only one of King James' children who would not be present at the ceremony. They wanted to return England to the Catholic faith and hoped for a new monarch (Jame's 9-year-old daughter) who was brought up to be sympathetic to their cause.

Hood Robin
Die letzten Tage in der US-Wirtschaft waren verrückt. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, in den zukünftigen Geschichtsbüchern darüber zu lesen, wie einige Leute im Internet zusammengekommen sind, um Aktien zu pumpen wie niemals zuvor. Die tragische Seite der Geschichte ist, dass die Plattform für den Handel, eine App namens Robin Hood, versuchte den Markt zu kontrollieren um den Menschen nicht erlauben, zu investieren. Was passiert ist, dass ein großer Investor der App durch die Trades viel Geld verlor. Deshalb versuchen sie, Trades zu begrenzen, um die Gewinne des Chefs nicht zu beeinträchtigen. Die Situation ist natürlich lustig wegen es verstößt gegen den Namen der App, als es wäre eine umgekehrte Robin Hood.

Die Letzte Woche
Diese Woche hatte ich eine Ferienwoche, weil ich meinen Urlaub vom letztes Jahr nicht benutzen haben. Ich habe mich entspannend. Leider, gibt es ein Lockdown hier in Wales und alle Laden sind zu. Mittlerweile, habe ich ein bisschen Deutsch gelernt, etwas gekocht, Sport gemacht und ein paar Bücher gelesen. Gerade, lese ich ein Buch das heißt "Around India in 80 Trains' Ich hab nur fünfzig Seite oder so gelesen aber das Buch gefällt mir sehr. Es geht um eine Frau, die Ursprünglich von Indien kommt aber Heutzutage in London wohnt. Sie Fährt mit einem Freund um India nur mit einem Zug oder achtzig verschiedene Züge. Ich glaube sie schreibt sehr gut und ich finde das Buch einfach zu lesen.

About 側(そば), 側(がわ), and 隣(となり), as "next to"
I commented on a question on Hinative.com, like the following. Please let me know if you found anything on it.
─ question ──
> そば(側) と かわ(側) と 隣り はどう違いますか？
説明が難しい場合は、例文を教えてください。https://hinative.com/en-US/questions/18239260
── ──
そば(soba) mainly shows like "close to," "near by."
ex.) あなた の そば に か が います（あなたのそばに蚊がいます）
└ = A mosquito is flying there, close to you.
With がわ(gawa), I can feel something opposite to it, or some border of a group including it.
ex.) かいだん の みぎ がわ を あるいて ください（階段の右側をあるいてください）
└ = Please walk on the right side of the steps. (not on the left side <- opposite [ right vs left ] )
となり(tonari) usually means like mixed "next to" with "aside of."
ex.) あなた の となり は あいて いますか？（あなたの隣は空いていますか？）
└ = Is the seat next to your right/left taken?
another::
つぎ(次/Tsughi) means "next," especially in a list, so it is sometimes used as "next to" as well.
ex.) テニス の つぎ に サッカー が 好きです。（テニスの次にサッカーが好きです）
└ = Next to tennis, I like playing soccer best. {1st: tennis; 2nd: soccer}
ex.) わたし は かれ の つぎ です。（私が彼の次です）

The Hotel where we stayed was beautifull, and had many activities for us to participated, besides I shared room with my besties, it was a really good experience that I will keep in my mind, and I hope to some day travel to that paradise again.

Moroccan markets
The sights, smells and unique atmosphere make the souk my favorite place in the world. The smell of spices and new cooked bread, the feel of the heat, the shouts of the stallholders and the bright colors of different vegetables. prepare for all your senses to be overwhelmed at once as you enter the souk is just more alive and an excellent place to get more relaxed even if you aren’t intending to shop, but who goes to the souks without coming back with something you can’t resist it. there you will find the fresh fish ,the seasonal vegetables and the boneless meat the souk was and always the heat of every Moroccan city just enjoy it as we do
The most famous Moroccan markets and souks is Marrakech souks Many travelers will be staying in, or at least passing through, Marrakech which has a host of excellent souks to explore. Packed the rafters with goods and people, they might feel a bit overwhelming at first, but if you dive in and let the atmosphere, sights, smells, and sounds, wash over you for a moment, you will be transported to another world. There are many different souks in Marrakech all in the same area and they are roughly divided by what they sell, although to a first-time visitor they might all seem to blend into one.
Another famous one is Souk el Attarine, Fez I love it teeming with living history – it is perhaps one of the best examples of medieval civilization left, with its trades and crafts having barely changed for a millennium. In the shops at the Souk el Attarine, you will find all sorts of wonderful goods for sale, including spices, herbs, incense, and traditional Moroccan crafts.
Finally, Essaouira Fish Market (which is my birthplace) also known as Mogador It’s an 18th-century European fortified seaport and the original architecture and layout are incredibly well-preserved. The souks fill the lanes of the town, but for something different to the usual slippers and woven throws, head down to the famous fish market there and try the freshest catch of the day
Since you head to souk I give some guides
NAVIGATING THE SOUKS
Most souks have many alleys and they are built in very complicated way the best way to find your way is just to ask someone, and people will be more than happy to help, If you are woman it is best to ask another woman. another option is buying a map, but most souk maps are not that good or you will find one ,on the other hand Using you phone GPS is great idea but you don’t stick your head to your phone missing the whole experience .
HAGGLING AND BARGAINING
Bargain in souk is something to expect you’ll notice the deeper you go into the souks, the cheaper it gets. Avoid asking for prices if you do so, as asking for prices implies, you’re keen to buy. Then if you don’t, you may find the shopkeepers making rude remarks.
If you already know what you need, ask the locals at your Riad or hotel what to expect to pay. They will be glad to help! If you find something you need to buy, it’s time to haggle/bargain!Haggling is almost a tradition in Morocco For many, it’s even fun!
There is more to tell about the big Moroccan souks, and there are too many of them to cover in brief paragraph
