Merry Christmas!

Hello everyone:

I hope you are well. Today I would like speak about my Christmas. Well I think the Christmas is a special celebration because the people shared with their family and friends. Also, in my opinion the Christmas present is a nice tradition. And the most important thing: the Christmas tree because is a symbol of Christmas for the people.  So, I think the colors, lights and all the Christmas decorations are fine and create a warm atmosphere.

In my last Christmas I went to my grandmother´s house with my sister and mum.  So, in her house were my family but not all, only my grandparents and my uncles. However, I can say spent with my family.  

My grandmother coked very well, her food was tasty. She coked a lot food: meat, vegetables and many sauces but my prefer sauce is champignon with white cream. I love it!  I eaten much and I drank wine – a lot-. Is a joke, I drank wine for accompany my food. Later we talk about many things and in the midnight we opened our Christmas present and shared it.

However, past the midnight I feel very tired so I went to sleep early. It was a nice and peaceful Christmas.

Human Language

The language has evolved with the time, in my opinon.  About words of Pagel, I think that learning social is a great ability own each person. So, in the past this ability was important for the human evolucion and social organization. Even, the language can make possible the cooperation between groups. Only the homo sapiens sapiens have the faculty of the language!

The origin of languages is result of the need. The comunication is useful for the cooperation between persons: in the past, present and the future. I believe that is possible one language for the world today because the globalization has grown a lot. Today the world is a concept of comunication because exist internet.

The idea about only one language is fine when the people needs comunicate but I think that is important for each culture preserve the language.
I believe that each language is important because the language possess the view of the world of the people. So each culture speak their language.

I like the spanish, It is a nice language. My Chilean identity is through the languaje because I think that the language is the most important factor about the culture.
Many persons in the world speak spanish but is difficult learn it. The Chilean people is a mixing: race, language etc. Is our history.

Learning English

Hello everyone:

I hope you are well. This week I know a new site on Internet for learn English, this site is: www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/. You must have a look. Well, my opinion about the site is good.  I think the page is fine because you can do many things. I enjoy it!

I started in the section: Grammar, Vocabulary and Pronunciation but I don’t really like it. You must search because there are many activities in the site.

I did try with others activities and I searched for something more entertaining. Then, I choice: Quiznet. This exercise is about different topics and you can choose anyone. So, I decided  for the topic about Canada.

And Wordmaster, It is about vocabulary. The game is an interactive program and you must write the correct word. Also you can enjoy practices and learn many words in different phrases.  So, my final score was: 59291. I feel very happy for my score. I do well.

Less time...

Hello everyone:

I hope you are well. I would like to write about my opinions and tell us my point of view on the current situation.

Well, I think that new term is hard to explain because this semester is very strange for me. Is the first time in my life that  I must study in holidays. It is new experience.
This year was difficult and exhausting for the students. The many strikes and discussion about education. Unfortunately the student demands was not hear for the government. It is a shame.

I think that is complicated make class in short time. But I believe the class of this semester will work.  Well,  I believe will be fine if we collaborate (students and teachers). We can learn a lot in less time. And the most important for us is study.

Studying over Christmas, New Year and in summer is terrible because I like enjoy the celebrations and I think in this situation is impossible to have fun. All the day I will saying: “I must study”. However, I can`t do anything about the subject. I only accept the reality. I hope learn more everyday and work in my projects.
