Good day englishclub folks, 

I heard somewhere, or saw somewhere, about one english practice exercise. 

"Compose sentence or text using words, which exlude one letter "(any letter from alphabet).

For example, letter "S" - "I am very happy today. I woke up and realized that I have won 1 million dollar lottery", but of course, such letters like "S, X, Q, Z..." are very easy, so you can take any harder one.

Letter "E" - "I am happy today, after I got up I saw on TV that I won 1 million dollar on bingo show.

I am asking you here to write one or more texts, using this practice, but for sure, text should make sense. It is allowed to use dictionaries, books, advices or any other source of help, cuz this is not competition. This is just to practice and expand our vocabulary domain.

Use any letter from alphabet, except "Z X Q J G". It means do not use letters Z X Q J G for your challenge, pick any other, for example A E C S M I O, harder - better.

Good to try "D" cuz it is used in almost every past tense verbs, or "W", which is used almost in every question, and so on.

You can try different letters in different texts, or if you think this is easy, you can try 2 or more letters, as you like. 

I am not sure if i explained it well, if you have questions you can ask me in comments.

Text without letter "A"

Good evenining or morning or night. Hope everyone is doing fine. I thought it is not difficult to write something without specific letter, but I need to tell it is interesting. 

Cuz it is impossible use I V+ing form here, I will use He is, reffering to myself:D

Doubtless, text will look noonse, but I need to form text without mother mercy first english letter. 

He is (me of course) just trying to test or experiment his english word-stock. 

Thinking too much over this text did give me sorrow in top of my body, something with grey stuff inside it. 

So, I decided to stop here this time. Possibly I will continue other twenty-four-hours:)
