Keep an English Journal




此系列文章都是為了練習英文，有興趣的人可以一起來討論跟參與，可以幫我抓錯更好！！

Note: This is my English journal, just try to keep something about my classes in English for practicing English writing. Discussion and Correction are welcome.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



My English teacher told me that writing something in English everyday will help. Well, let me give it a try...

I havn't written something in English since I quit my job last November. I take some English classes recently, but we only practice reading, talking and pronunciation. It's difficult for me to keep a diary everyday even in Chinese because I am not good at telling stories, but I will try to keep something related to my  English studying.

Please kindly correct me if there are any mistakes (grammatical, spelling, vocabulary or preposition using...).

    You're so courageous.

    I don't think you would have any grammar problems since we have learned grammar for more than two decades. However, take myself as an example, word-choosing would be a lesson worth learning.

    I was told not to use "mistake" unless it is something almost unforgivable. Use "errors" instead if you're referring to some issues with your writing.

    Just a quick thought. I hope you don't mind.

    We probably can compare notes along the way of forever-English-learning.

      I am always so happy to get a comment. And if it's in english, I will be happier. I got more chances to practice and learn more from reading and replying your comment, that's great.

      I totally agree with you, choosing words would be difficult for non-native english speakers.

      Back to the word "mistake" or "error", I believe that I heard the same statement as you before. But in my english classes recently, I notice that my teachers use "mistake" to express either a typo in an article or when some students say a sentence incorrectly (pronunciation, grammar...) all the time.

      I tried to search online and got this:

      I will also ask my teacher in next class.
