Hi VD... Long time no see :kisss Hi Suwonk Welcome to English Forum Lounge... I think about your problem, you can join an English Club. Commonly every city have one. Hi Kucing... Winning a bet last night? Ah... Nanda... Following politics? I do think that our youth should start to care
Speaking of being in Jakarta, I'm going to be in Jakarta for about two weeks too, although I don't think I can go to any gathering. Just giving out useless info.
I can't write very well, so I have to read more. :D Sometimes, you can write grammatically correctly and still unable to write well. It's a talent some people have, I guess. Me myself, I'm still jealous of people who write brilliantly well. But at the very least you can write correctly when you re
Oh ya, sociable :hammers forget to fix that one. . I was about to use the term "force" but afraid it was gonna be too extreme, cool! encourage. . Well, it is strange if that just happened that way :o Force has a bit of a negative connotation too. That's the thing with nuances. Yes.
It's like remembering a row or a line, I can do that and I think it's quite simple for me to figure out the context by doing that :D I mean having a supportive community surely pushes us to become more socialable person, right ? which is something that not every writers have :) Yeah, Putting
Actually, in memorizing it, It's not you memorize all the things. It's like helping you and easing you in recognizing the concept. Something like Brain-Storming, so once you get the familiar word then you can think logically to what it refers to. . :D But a supportive community constrains us to
Honestly saying I'm good at memorizing something, some people were born with that gift. And by memorizing it actually it can quite help me in memorizing some tenses and rules so I can write down a sentence properly. . But I just have to agree that the way we're practicing English will much be
I agree with you. Language is not a memorizing lesson such as history, geography, biology, etc. The most important thing in learning a language is to practice using it in a conversation with someone. Therefore, I oppose those who always says "Sok inggris lo jing" etc very much. If we have
Agreed, Indonesian ones are just damned :capedes somehow plagiarism :ngakaks non-Indonesian works ? you mean your concept mainly on western dramas ? :eek It's on HBO yeah you should use TV digital :D It's truly an exciting TV shows Anyway, you also can download it by torrents cat :D Han
wow, you're a writer that's good for you i'm not really a writer i'm just write down some ideas for other works that pop out from my mind. i mean when ideas come, lately i'm just too lazy to capture it. and then, when i want to make something, there's nothing on my head, blank, none, empty. s
@fadel: if you read young adults' or children's books you will know. Preferably the non-Indonesian ones. Not trying to be discriminative but I base my works on mainly non-Indonesian works.
Sometimes i really want to write something based on my spontanously ideas, but i don't think i will share it with anyone because i worry if someone stole some of my ideas (actually it happened). But the problem is. i rarely write it for my own, too lazy perhaps. I tried to install some diary apps...
Eh didn't read properly :hammer: I'm mistaken L and that was very impolite and sloppy of me :capedes Ah, since we were talking about gender :hammer: So, what genre you're usually on, currently ? I'll assume that's an apology and go ahead and say apology accepted. I write in many genres, b
The gender change was shocked :kagets: The curiousity may fade, but once you here again it comes up :ngakaks Ah OK, maybe still kinda privacy for you I respect that L :beer: .... gender change... I'm not one of those people with gender dysphoria. If you reread what I say again properly, you'l
@fadel: what did I say that warrants a wtf? Well, that depends on our definitions of long time, doesn't it? Maybe by then you're all bored already and don't even want to know.
@astraios: I'm currently considering a genre change too, so I won't mind having my name up there with the likes of Beatrix Potter, C.S. Lewis, or Cressida Cowell. Haha. I suppose that is something you shall not know for sure for a long time.
Well, surely it will come in handy :D people also have been questioning you on your thread, eh :D One of your writing blogs eh like dozens ? :p I'd like to know more then ;) True. This way they get to see me writing with my... usual... set of characters, shall we say, and these ones I write
How did you know that your grammatical mistakes were one per two thousand words? Do you use computer software or something? Nothing so fancy. I'm not that computer savvy. I participated in a writing festival which required me to have my story beta-read. It was a 12,800 words piece and my beta-re
