ESL Blogs

Well, January is coming to the end and this month we have guessed many interesting and funny words playing Jeopardy. Looking through them makes me laugh as I already "see" a few funny stories and verses I can write. So, I propose you to do the same. Please, write a funny story or a funny poem using some of these words. I will correct the stories, so they must be within 200-250 word limit.

Here is our vocabulary:

It is really surprising as it is not even the intermediate level, it is basic. Anyway, we use both constructions very often and you should know how to do it correctly.

SO, IT IS is mostly followed by an adjective:

It is windy.

It is

Hi! Here I am again with the next “portion” of the intermediate grammar as I am not satisfied with the results of my previous test. You all know what to do: you should find and correct all the mistakes in each sentence.

For how many years I had lived a solitary life, but not anymore, I didn’t choose this, still, it happened, I didn’t ask yet it came, and I won’t deny the overjoyed emotions captivated my being. It feels like home.

“Father, my teacher told me you need to visit my school. She wants to talk to you.” Light said that early evening.

“Why so? What did you do this time?” I said calmly to my 5-year-old “son”.

Morning walk is my exercise.  On the last lap of my walking along this subdivision streets, a familiar jogger smiled and greeted me "Good morning, Fe!"   I was surprised!  It's the first time she greeted me by my name!  It  lightened my spirit!  There's magic hearing someone greet me by my name!

Whereas before and as always whenever we cross our path in the course of our morning exercise, she just smile. Or, sometimes, just wave her hand as a greeting.  Later on, in low voice greet me "Good morni

And said that after leaving you, I do live all my days in spring!
they said that I and you have never been matching for each other!
And said that it would have been
