15:46

I'm very sad. My teacher is really strict
Why are you sad?
Because you are.
Really?
I tried my best to teach you.
But now?!!!
Do you remember how I told you please help me how I request from you
You just.....
Learn from your mistakes.
15:54
OK
Why did you remove all that?
My problem is only paraphrase one or two or... sentences.
Hmm...
Because
I am not ashamed of my teaching techniques.
Sorry what?
I tried to make you think for yourself.
16:00
I don't know what you mean exactly
Remember when we talked about asking complete questions?
That is what I mean about trying to make you think for yourself
You mean if I ask complete question from you then you give me the complete answer so my problems solving
Right?
Yes. Take the time and effort to find your own weaknesses
16:07
Sure
Yes
He is very intelligent.
I know this one
What else?
It is hard to judge people on just what you see on the Internet
Yes
:(
People will always gossip
16:17
OK
Keep an open mind and always remember we are on the Internet.
Yes right
Internet = context
What do you think about me?
You try your best.
imo
16:23

In my opinion
Nice
Your summary for words really fun
They are commonly used on the Internet
I didn't see such thing
Just like "np"
16:26
@IceGirl Hello
Exactly
What else?
bbl = Be back later
I want to know
I prefer Damkerng style of teaching for you
@skullpatrol I think your style is good. :)
16:29
Thanks. But for icegirl you are better
I think both of your styles are Best
Take it easy
np
Today I have difficult exam from difficult essays in my book
It's very hard
It contains 15 pages
Can you imagine that?!!!!!!!!
Ah, 15 pages...
Must be several hours.
I said it to skullpatrol a few minutes ago
No
We had just 1:30 hour
16:32
I see.
Did you finish it in time?
No
I didn't answer some questions
I hope you can pass the exam.
really strange question we had in the difficult exam
5-6 minutes per page is very tough
Yes, I agree.
16:34
Oh, come on
skull just said that it's difficult.
I think it can be difficult for anyone.
It's really hard to paraphrase all the sentences
15 pages should take 2-3 hours.
I guess you should practice paraphrasing seriously.
It seems like it's the main thing your teacher want you to be able to do.
16:36
Exactly
I can help you to get start with paraphrasing, but I'm afraid that you might not enjoy it.
It's hard work.
@icegirl have you searched youtube for videos about English
No
@DamkerngT. Really thanks
@skullpatrol I think you can recommend her some videos, if you know some of them.
I hate it
16:37
I see.
It is a great source
I don't know if it is censored
Hmm... English lessons shouldn't be censored.
I think 2 hard exams is really hard in one day
Never mind
Who knows governments
I try to be best
What?
16:40
Please try youtube
Take control of your learning
Begin by preparing complete questions to ask here.
How should I start? I want to learn advance level
Start at a level you feel comfortable at
Don't go too advanced yet
Why?
16:44
Work your way up
Learning is hard work that builds on itself
You need to learn How to walk before you can run
You give me some videos please that you know is helpful for me
Go to youtube and search for "English as a second language "
OK
See you soon
See you.

A: What does this wrought sentence mean?

Nick StaunerThe man is enthusiastic, which causes him to embellish his sentences excessively. For every noun he uses, he feels the need to tack on lots of "fluff words" (adjectives, probably) to describe all the important details of what he's trying to communicate. The tone implies that the writer doesn't a...

I believe that this answer is misleading.
The answer assumes that the man is a writer. That might be possible, but quite unlikely. The original sentence was This man acts with an enthusiasm ...
This man acts with an enthusiasm that requires lots of fluff words to each noun to correctly describe.
This should be simply translated as...
It requires lots of fluff words (to each noun) to correctly describe such an enthusiasm of this man.
:)
But that's just me.
19:17
I agree.
19:56

Chocolate sounds nice.
Really delicious specially when you eat it with tea
20:16
Hmm... I've never tried chocolate with tea before.
Usually with milk.
You try it
very delicious
I might try it some time.
What kind of tea do you like?
I usually drink Chinese tea.
Iranian tea
:)
20:19
Oh! I've never tried Iranian tea before.
That sounds interesting!
Do you like it?
I'm sorry about the typo.
np
Do you see advertisements about junk food?
All the time. :)
What is your idea about them?
20:21
They're everywhere.
About the ad?
Or the junk food itself?
The ad are attractive.
Advertisements for junk food
They are colorful.
They make these junk food look good.
Yes
But some junk food are really harmful for healthy
20:23
But junk food is not good for health.
Absolutely.
Too much sugar and too much fat.
Our idea is the same
:)
^^
But you still love chocolate anyway.
Haha
I see.
I like chocolate too.
Good
:)
20:26
But I try to choose only those dark ones.
Have you ever heard about dark chocolate?
You mean it's not contains with sugar?
Yes, dark chocolates usually have less sugar.
Yes, I love it too much
Ah, that's good.
Dark chocolate can be good for health.
Or so I've heard.
What kind of chips do you like?
20:29
Oh! I quit chips years ago.
I used to eat potato chips.
Really?
Yes.
It's delicious.
I mean about kind of tastes some spicy some .....
But lots of salt, and again fat.
Hmm... I don't think chips are spicy.
Your chips are spicy?
I eat chips not much
Yes
20:32
Hmm... That's interesting. I've never tried spicy chips.
I always bought Pringles.
When I go out with my friends or go to picnic I used it too much
Pringles?
It's a brand of potato chips.
Nice
Pringles is a brand of potato and wheat-based stackable snack chips owned by the Kellogg Company. Originally marketed as "Pringles Newfangled Potato Chips", Pringles are sold in more than 140 countries, They were originally developed by Procter & Gamble (P&G), who first sold the product in 1967. P&G sold the brand to Kellogg in 2012. History Pringles were first sold in the United States in October 1967, and distributed internationally by 1975. P&G wanted to create a perfect chip to address consumer complaints about broken, greasy, and stale chips, as well as air in the bags. The ...
Very famous.
20:35
I see that you like to hang out, picnic with your friends.
Good
I guess that they are all female.
Sorry yes
20:36
(I remember that you mentioned that you don't like boys much.)
Hmm.
@Cerberus Hello
Exactly
But boys can be nice.
20:36
We're talking about junk food.
And chips.
I think just my love is nice
And picnic, and boys.
You can consume them like junk food, but that is not recommended on the label.
Aha, you have a boyfriend.
That's nice.
20:37
Maybe
@Cerberus Eh? You mean consume boys?
confused
Yes.
Oh, that's not recommended.
What do you mean?
In whichever way possible.
As Kant says, it is never good to use a person just as if he were a thing.
20:39
I think Cerberus just playing with word, making a joke.
I think so
You can use, say, a tall person as a tool to get something from a high shelf, but then you should thank him and appreciate his effort.
Haha.
That's one way we can use tall people. ;-)
I chose to deliberately misinterpret your "junkfood" line.
20:40
I'm a bottle opener.
And that's fine.
That's fine.
As long as you aren't just a bottle opener to someone.
Oh, I'm many other things too!
20:41
Good.
You can use a chair as just a thing. Although even chairs sometimes protest...
@Cerberus Do you like to eat chocolate?
Yes!
Good
It's the best thing we got from the New World.
@Cerberus Chairs can rebel, sometimes.
@Cerberus Aha, the history of chocolate.
20:46
OK
Indeed.
Now I must away.
Adieu!
Good bye.
We can continue our discussing about junk food
Bye
Do you agree?
With what?
Continue our discussion?
Let's continue.
Where were we?
Oh, your boyfriend. :)
We can change our subject to talk about you and him instead. :)
@DamkerngT. ????????????????
20:52
I'm here.
Sorry my Internet...
I said good bye to Cerberus.
OK
Do you want to know him?
Why?
I think Adieu! is good bye in French or Spanish.
20:54
I just think that you might want to talk about your boyfriend.
What does he like?
Rich, handsomer, kind,....
Wow!
He sounds like a perfect guy!
very humble
Yes
Exactly
That's good!
Humble is a good quality in men.
How long have you met?
Although he is very rich, but he doesn't proud
4 years
20:57
I see.
You met him in school?
No
You know here is Iran
and the school are separated
How did both of you meet then?
Hmm....
