Let’s play a game

2010-06-01T21:14:04-05:00

Hi guys,let’s play word game here.

I will start with no 1) (and you will continue with no 2), 3), etc) a “word” then i will define it and next i’ll make a sentence with that word. Your turn is to make a new word still associated with my (or previous) player’s word and just do as told earlier.

This is the example.

1) “phone” is a tool use to make an oral communication with other people.
Sometimes, i phone my friend oversea twice a month.

PS. on your reply post you write no 2) and do it

Cheers.

What’s your idea of a good date?

2010-01-03T16:18:02-05:00

My idea of a good date is something that consists of doing a lot of different things. Just a full interesting night, so I think there doesn’t have to be any certain place but maybe a few places. So I like nature. I think a nice date would be maybe to go out hiking or bicycle riding or something like that and then, after a good day of working out,maybe going out to dinner, or to a comedy club. I like going to see comedians.

One tip to speak English more fluently

2010-05-08T09:07:57-05:00

Hi all my friends,

We know that learning a second language (English) requires a lot of sacrifices and if we do, the language being learnt will also do a lot for us such as building our confidence among our friends. thousands theories offered to master English but many of us feel hard to apply ones. Many get frustrated and finally surrender.

For me, the simplest thing to master English as the second language is just through “Think something and say it or think a thing and write it” I did do this even till now.. when i am thinking of something, i just start exploring it and the best way out of my thinking is just “write it” like here in Spotlight discussion forum.

Whatever we write, just believe me “we are improving even with only a few new words but the vocabs develop day by day and surely we’re getting better everyday.

There are a lot of forums we can open or surf on the nets. the more we say or write the better we are. Don’t ever worry to make mistakes because those mistakes make us learn. good luck.

learning from mistakes

2010-07-31T09:58:31-05:00

Hi there..

I always emphasise one wise quote said ” we are learning from our mistake” and i can make this quote in line with “no genius hatches on bed”.

I love these two sayings and i do believe what i have till this very second is the result of a lot of mistakes i already made in life. Meanwhile, when we study a foreign language and we are supposed to create mistakes. Mistakes make us aware not to repeat the same thing we did wrong. Mistake teaches us to be more careful on something… well what about you?
