I don't really know, what you mean. "Don't" is short for "do not". But that's not another term for "no" ... :eusa_think: At least not in that context.

The sentence means, that she doesn't trust leo.org, when it says, the word for "Formel" is "formular".

@Stoffel: The differences are for example, that I get a check from work. It happens not with a bank account like in Germany. It seems kinda old fashioned to me. The food is much more expensive and we have speed limits at the interstate. With buying alcohol, it's different from state to state. The Aldi here in Tennessee for example was not allowed to sale Gluehwein, but in Ohio they sold it. And you have food everywhere. Really everywhere. It doesn't matter how small the city is...there is always something to dine in. But, not like most people think, you can also eat healthy stuff .

The coyote saw us, but ran away. It looked pretty big to me. It's just so weird, cause we talked about it. The dogs were quite... definitely not typical for Hazel.


@FinnFinn: Yes I really like George Strait. I also enjoy Garth Brooks, Kenny Chesney and Reba McEntire. It's so cool that you like country music too. How come?

Jes but Dosn´t is short vor do not its okay i understand. Arrg is today not my Day

I am soooo lazy, too- that's why I get along with Maths and Chemistry so well.
Most of my Maths tests I take without practising at home- but in the end the important thing is to know what you are doing and why you are doing it.
If you don't get all the numbers messed up then, it's simple.
Math will save my average- at least I hope so. :mrgreen:

But I do believe Chemistry is a lot different from school in university.
And a lot more topics in a shorter time, which makes sense if you consider that while at school you have about three classes a week while at university you mainly have Chemistry. (Aside to Maths, Biology and, unfortunately, Physics. There is an exam consisting of these, actually.)
And I love working in the lab.
In summer, we had sort of an internship in line with the LMU's IGEM group (a competition where student groups try to create new organisms).
And we altered the genoms of some bacteria, so they were fluorescing. That was super cool!

What term are you studying, Rubinchen?
Do you want to promote after your studies? Apparently you nearly have to, if you want to find a job.


Today I had my oral English exam. It actually was not as bad as I feared.
For the monologue, I had two minutes preperation time for three minutes talking, which is quite short.
But I managed to fill the time when speaking about "Do you think monarchy only is for old people and tourists?".
I said "Oh my good" about five times, though.
And the trialogue was not too bad, either.

I'm sorry, but I don't get what you are trying to say, Flumina.

No shoes, no shirt, no problem, eh? :mrgreen:

I intruduced myself a few pages sooner... did you see it? My parents own a vacation home in Florida. They liked the musik before, but really got into it after our first visit. Since then, they´ve been listening to country musik almost exclusively. We live near Frankfurt, were many old army stations are located. They have an American radio station (AFN Eagle) that plays the top 100 country on sundays. We (my sister and I) used to listen to that every weekend as teens.

Do you have a very favorite song?

Hey, that sounds good! Do you have a good feeling?

 

[Mascha]

Hey,

I think thats a great idea too.

So, my name is Mascha and Im 14 years old.
I live in Hamburg.
Hamburg is a great city.
I have all together 9 pets.
On saturday we get a new hamster from: "Hamster in Not".
His name ist George :mrgreen:

This year I want to travel to England.
I make a language travel (?) in my holidays for two weeks.
There I go to the school and live in a host family.
Probably I'll go in summer holidays.

I like English because its a great language that everyone understands.

I hope my english its not so bad...:lol:
Main thing is you understand me.


regards,
Mascha

my grammar is vor waste

Um, I don't think that "vor waste" makes sense, does it ? That's like "I think i spider" or "not the yellow from the egg" . You can't translate the german sentence word for word, that's not english...

Today I called my vet because of the "Bloodtest Results" from my cat. Her kidneydata (Nierenwerte ?) are slightly too high. The vet said that could be because of the narcotic.

And I got a 2 on my English Grammar Quiz :mrgreen: I am really happy about that because it was quite difficult, I will have a 2 in my schoolcertification. ^^


If there are any mistakes in my post, feel free to correct me

[ST0FFEL]

And I got a 2 on my English Grammar Quiz :mrgreen:

My congratulations. And I think it's funy. You get grades, I give them. :mrgreen: Today I graded recipes in German. I gave As, Bs and Cs.

Candy, it's interesting the dogs didn't bark at the coyote. I would also like to see one in nature.
But I don't know, if I'm ever going to travel to the USA. I hate snakes that much. So it would have to be a region without snakes. Is there even one?

I also hated the crossed adders, wich where really active at my holiday in denmark last summer. I saw one. :shock: Though I think, they aren't dangerous for me, they're still really dangerous for my five year old and the dogs. So I had my son walk through the dunes in rubber boots. The dogs had to stay on leash on the small trails. Admittedly, I myself also wore rubber boots. :silence:

 

[xsofiixx]

Thank you I like snakes. I am also afraid of them when they are poisonous and big, but they are very interessting and beautiful. But you are right, for children and dogs are they pretty dangerous. We should organise a Tierforum-USA-or-England-or-Irland-Trip ^^

 

[Candy1983]

@Stoffel I hate snakes too. We have even rattle snakes in Tennessee. But I think Texas is much worse. There are probably less in the New England states?

@FinnFinn I don't know, if I really have a favorite song. Maybe "Amarillo by morning":eusa_think:. What's yours? Pretty cool, that you grew up with country music.

 

[Turtle28]

I played western music with my guitar for a couple of years

We got our english exam back today.
The average was 3.7... I have got a 2+ :mrgreen:

 

[xsofiixx]

Hej guys!

I have got a CD with country/western music. But I don't know the name of the Band, they are abou 3-5 women. On the CD stands "buy"...i think.. :lol:

I really like their music but i just can't keep in mind the name of te band or at least a song.

 

[Jessica91]

Hello
Sorry that I didn't write much in the last few days.
My mum is at the hospital for some days, I had to go to school, go to work, learn for school at home and now clean the house additionally.
There isn't many time left for spending at the internet.
There are some songs in Countrystyle I like to listen sometimes, but i don't think it's real Country music.
Most of these songs are from Keith Urban. Is this a country singer?
Greetings
Jessica

 

[FinnFinn]

@FinnFinn I don't know, if I really have a favorite song. Maybe "Amarillo by morning":eusa_think:. What's yours? Pretty cool, that you grew up with country music.

I love "Who I am" by Jessica Andrews. But there are so many good songs out there! I really enjoy "Dirt Road Anthem" by Zach Brown Band, too.

@xsofixx: Now I want to know! Could you look at it and tell us?

@Jessica: It depends... In modern country, there are singers and songs that sound more like Pop Musik. Taylor Swift, for example. And others that sound more like the older version of country music, with the fiddles and stuff. :004:
Keith Urban is a country singer. He has some great good-mood-songs, I really love "Days go by", but thats an older song (2004).

 

[xsofiixx]

Finn , i am not at home but i am going to look on friday or saturday

 

[Candy1983]

I like the Zach Brown Band, too. In March George Strait is playing in town. I would love to go again, but the tickets are expensive. And I just started my new job and my husband is in college again.

 

[xsofiixx]

Dixie Chicks ! That is the band i meant. :lol:

I made waffles ! I love them because waffles are the only thing, except Mikrowave-Muffins, i can make. :lol: Everything else doesn't work ^^

 

[Candy1983]

Waffles sound great. I love pancakes too:mrgreen:.

 

[Turtle28]

Uhh, I had my exam on (at?!) Thursday.
First we had to write a free statement for 1 1/2 hour. I wrote 8pages:mrgreen:
After we had to do two reading-tasks, basic-knowledge about South Africa
an an vocabulary-exercise. It was really hard:shock:
Then we had to do a listening task and it was a little bit complicated too.
They spoke English with an African accent:mrgreen:
If somebody is interested in the speaking-tasks I had to reccord, he cand send me a...private message
All in all it was okay, but i could have prepare my knowledge about South Africa better

 

[xsofiixx]

Waffles sound great. I love pancakes too:mrgreen:.

Shall that be sarcasm, for like "waffle is no english word" ? I am confused :eusa_eh:
