Hi, Ellie! Thank you very much for the wonderful corrections as always. >you were off topic in this case That's true and that was what I concerned. I wanted to start my sentence telling that the topic reminded me what my friend told me in the past, and then, finish with my view that those electric devices also have risk to ruin our imagination not only our lives. But I couldn't conclude within the specified length, thus I decided to submit the first 50 words, sorry! But "off topic", "economize on" are new words to me, which was a good input, thank you! Also, I appreciate the additional amendment for the last work. The example of clubbing seals with comma was very interesting. Regarding the emotional side, I think it's good to be emotional and sensitive for self-discovery and development. I often try to shut my emotional and sensitive side and stay being logical and reasonable since, being in a sentsitive state, we have to receive all pains and stresses straitly in our mind. Thus, I think emotional / sensitive persons have strong mind since they accept their weakness, negative things and all sadness as they are, that is what I cannot do. Sorry for writing a lot. I'm looking forward to the next chance to learn from you. Have a good start of week! Asouka
Thank you very much.
Hello teacher Ellie_P, Thank you for your correction and suggestion. "yet you came down from the sky and haven't stopped since." Whoa, I hardly use "yet" and also "since" like this, thank you, it's cool! And I like "my heart goes out to her" :) I like rain, too. Your sentences contains the feeling. Thank you so much. Have a good weekend. moet

Dear Ellie_P, Thank you for your corrections and many advices. I'm very moved by variety of alternative expressions you suggested. > larger-deflection-wave I just wanted to express large emotional wave unique to human begings but I did not have idea how to insert in my phrase. > human beings / humans I felt surprised to know human being is different from animal while humans can be a part of animals. "Additionally, humans are the only animals that kill themselves." I try to find the difference between human beings and humans online but haven't been able to find clear reason about this so far. I also appreciate the advice to consider putting comma that I never noticed by myself. Sorry, I couldn't understand the last phrase... (Latter part may have been cut?) Thank you again for everything. Hope you can enjoy the days with raindrops! Asouka
Thank you very much for your very generous and kind work!!!!
Thank you, Ellie!!
Dear Ellie, Thank you for your detailed comments on my text as always. As you guessed, I wanted to express that with large companies, since so many people work in them, we get to see our work as a whole, so our work does not stand out more because we are just a small part of a very big machine if we are working for large companies Yes, currently, graduating students enjoy workers' market and become picky. They are so lucky! I am looking forward to having your lesson again soon! Best regards, Tinkle
Dear Teacher Ellie-P Thank you so so much!!! I was so excited and moved because you taught me a lot, furthermore you appended another example sentence. I’m so happy. I want to be a person who can write an intelligent and sophisticated sentences in the future. Thank you!! Kind regards, Pasery
Hello It is really my pleasure to read your alternatives I already sent such a message before, but I feel great whenever I read your sentences. Thank you Best Regards, Hiroko
Dear Ellie_P, Thank you very much for the corrections and alternative expressions. >'If I were to marry him' means you are not yet married to him. >However, she is married to him. Firstly, I didn't understand what you mean here, but now, I guess I could get the point! Since he is not single anymore, especially with the main person of this topic, it makes confilict if "I were to marry him". And now, thanks to you, I come to know marry never takes the preposition "with". >iinherited this culture, >is part of that culture I liked those expressions that have never come to my mind. I want to be able to utilize all the expressions you suggested. Will try in the next opportunity. Thank you also for the input about the background of this topic. Reading your info., I think she did rather good thing for the tribe. There is no reason for her to be accused, right? And I enjoyed reading your life in Spain. Once, I have been to Spain more than 20 years ago. I loved all the cities I visited. Delicious food, beautiful towns with white walls, the air that brings the smell of orange, and the people were nice. If I live abroad, Spain is one of my canditate countries. Thank you as always! I will soon write you again! Best regards, Asouka
