Hi, Ellie sensei, Thank you for your understandable corrections and the warm message. I will ask you again to check my sentences. See you soon.
When Japanese child loses his/her upper teeth, he/she throws it under the floor, meanwhile, he/she loses his/her lower teeth, he/she throws it upon the roof. It is a charm that we hope that the next permanent tooth will grow firmly in that direction.

Thank you for detail explaination. It helps me a lot!
Hi, Teacher Ellie. Thank you for your message, my husband's parents tries to control over us and ask us almost everything. I strongly felt being forced to do something which I don't want to do, besides, they take it as granted. So, now, I keep distance from them as much as possible. Have a wonderful weekend. Ai
Thank you very much for your quick reply.
Thank you very much.
"And with this sentence below, do you mean to send her your contact details, or to get hers?" I mean I wanted to get hers. I made a mistake.
“Hmm...the bay window. Do you have a window overlooking the bay?” I mean, the bow window or compass window. Wikipedia said “A bay window is a window space projecting outward from the main walls of a building and forming a bay in a room.” So, I used the word; “bay window.”
Dear Ellie_P, Thank you so much! Your detailed explanations against my questions were clear. I could deeply understand. I thought it was good for me to take the courage to ask you.

Hello, Ellie Thank you for your through comment about this topic Japan has faced a crisis for a long time and there is no sign to find a solution It’s true that JA is a powerful organization and has something to say about this current changes designed to import many agricultural products from the EU Aside from it, Japan had a policy to reduce the amount of rice by encouraging farmers not to produce rice . It was abolished last year but it already damaged our agriculture so severely that I wonder if we could recover from it Regards, Hiroko
