Hello, David. Thank you very much for your correcting! It was a relief that there were a few mistakes but using correct tense is really a hard work for us, Japanese native people! Because, as you may know, these two languages are very different especially in tense rule. We don't even have a concept of 'present perfect' in our own language. But, knowing those differences is interesting, and sometimes inspiring. You say in your bio that you play Japanese RPGs. I once was a hard-core gamer and devoted my younger days to playing countless video games. But, now I'm a responsible adult man (I hope so) and I don't have enough time to play many RPGs anymore because I have to learn English even after work. However, I thought of an idea to do both learning English and playing RPGs at the same time --playing JRPGs in English mode. The other day I played Atelier Sophie, a JRPG featuring alchemy, of Steam's PC version in English mode. Actually, I thought that the game was a bit for younger folks than me but that was a well-made, decent game. I found a lot of interesting English expressions there, and realized that playing games is really refreshing. Let's return to talking about writing. I read aloud your corrected sentences and alternative ones, and I was convinced that native speaker's sentences rightly have authentic flows and tones. I hope I'll come near the authenticity someday. Thank you again for your detailed correction.
Thank you for you quick answer. I am happy to know you would rather say " search for words" and " a limited amount of time."
I appreciate you. Recently, I'm trying to write something in English everyday to speak more fluently without translating Japanese to English in my brain. It's difficult for me. I'll ask you to correct my English sentence again. Thank you.
Thank you for your quick responce. I am happy to know that "all the time" means it exists all the time and that "always" means it exsists much less than "all the time."
Thank you for your quick responce. In this sentence wihich to use " the past" or "the present" was difficult.
Thank you for your quick responce. I am glad that I could confirm I can use "the clause form of that" after pretend,i.e. ...pretend 'that' nothing was happening to me.
Thank you for your quick responce. I wanted to make sure if " throwing it up high in the sky" is correct.
Thank you for your quick responce. I think the first sentence does not sound natural.
Thank you so much!
Dear David, Thanks very much for your correction and message! It's awfully hot and humid lately, but it's ok.. Thank you for your support! I hope to see you on here again soon. Miho
I'm sorry. I made the same mistake again. Thank you for always encouraging me to practice English.
Thank you so much for teaching me English.
Thank you for your quick reply. I am glad to know " you don't say the areas is roped, instead you say "the area is marked with a rope."
Thank you for your quick responce. I am glad to know "a" is necessary like "a" 40 degree-fever.
Thank you for your quick responce. I am glad to know "thrown forward" is OK.
