    Hi Geoff, Hello, thank you for your correction of my writing. This time, I am so happy you told me a lot of vocabulary which is so useful, some of which were " accompanying issue", "expose us to a risk", "hopefully". I also confirmed the structure " It is to be hoped that S+V" which people often use. So I will try to use them in near future. And also. thank you for the definition "reservations". In Japanese, we can use same words between "concern" and "reservations" .... So now it's completely clear thank to you! I envy you don't have mosquitos in UK, and I understand that's one of reasons why the gardens are so kept so beautiful anywhere else. Have a nice day! Yukiko

    Hi Geoff, How're you doing? This time, I'm sorry my first sentence was bad. For example, when you see landscape or cook something, there is generally no laughter. But once you communicate with somebody, there's possibility to lead to laughter. It's the privilege of only human being, and only tool to enable us to be positive.... I know it's not something to explain with just one sentence, so I think I made it complicated....sorry. By the way, today I've learned about "Conjunctive adverbs " following your sentence including the word "eventually". I understand we don't need to put a conjunction like and, so, or..., but I don't know the difference between when putting a comma and semi-colon and when not. 1) ; eventually, contributing to ( with ; ,) 2) ,eventually contributing to (only , ) I would be happy if you tell me next time. Have a nice day! Yukiko

    Hi Geoff, How's going? I'm good. I've completely learned about expressions with "risk", which sound quite interesting to expand my skill. Thank so much with your several explanation. I will try to use them in IDIY with you. Together, the phrase "tax dollars" also intrigued me, because you use pounds and this word seems to come from USA (^_^). For me, just "tax" or "local tax"sounds enough, but this is also added new vocabulary for me. Another takeaways, - in ways that +(verb) ( ways-plural ) -balance one's finances ( finances- plural ) -create a virtuous cycle ( create - collocation ) -eradicate poverty ( poverty - collocation ) etc. As I took them on my note, I try to memory as many as possible. Thank you! See you later! Yukiko

    Hi Geoff, Thank you for your correction! Ok, you pause in the place where you would like to put comma. Wow! I've never realized it, but I'm excited to find some examples now. Thank you. This time, I've learned; - in cases where S+V ( always plural : cases + where ) - the definition of "privacy" ( that I mistook ) etc. But still....honestly there's remaining question... The expression "In a move ( the companies said ) would help ..." I've checked there're expressions " In a move that S+V" or " In a move that + V ". Is it correct if that can be abbreviated ? Then I will understand grammatically. Next time, if you remember it, please tell me. Thank you for all your support. See you next time! Yukiko
