The nation of short-forms

Once upon a time i have read a book about The English Culture . I came a cross a phrase which says" English is the nation of short-forms". It seems that the writer encountered many difficulties in learning the language of those nations such as, wanna, gonna, gotta, ....i'd and so on. Do you agree to what has been written if yes? could you justify that?

I am Human

 

No surprise because I am just a human, It is not my fault to give me your mind picture which you draw. I am not acting to be angel because I am not and will never be.

Give me my space to accept me otherwise look around yourself and find angel if you can but do not hurt me because I am not as you want.

I am living the life as it is, good bad worth I have to live it , doing my best as a human to melt mountains to walk .

We accept each other myself and life and we are happy because we are giving real

From the infographic above, we can see that there are four main benefits from learning a language: love, travel, intelligence and money. And, it's interesting to see that being a bilingual person can increase our chances to get a better life. I remember I read research posted on an online news that bilingual students performed better in various tasks than monolingual students just like the result that was shown by the infographic.

MIA - Missing in Action

For anyone wondering where I disappeared to, I moved back to the United States on September 18.  While I have time on my hands sometimes, I can not use it to access My EC.  The problem is bandwidth.  My internet here in Southern Arkansas is by "Satellite" and the satellite technology has really improved as to speed but it comes with bandwidth restrictions.  We can only use about 200 mb a day so pages such as My EC with constant scrolling is not feasible - it eats that available bandwidth in a hu

The ceremonies are significant events or happenings occurred either at personal level or at national level. For example, the national day of a country/state is an event of significance to all people living in the country/state concerned. On the other hand, take a birthday party as an example, we organize and celebrate it at personal level with a limited crowd. There is a common feature unique to both. Whatever it is! A single person couldn’t organize and celebrate a ceremony without the support
