DESCRIBING THE HOUSE OF MY DREAMS I live in the north of Spain. The weather here is often cold and sometimes it rains.I have two children, one two years old and the other six years old, so the house of my dreams is the house of their dreams. I imagine a big house( but not very very big) because I have to clearn it.. It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a big kitchen and a big living room with dinig room. In the living room we have a chimeney. The house has two floors, in the first floor we also have a garage for two cars. You can go to garage by the kitchen. We have a garden with flowers and trees and our children can play there. We have neighbors, because I don't like living alone, I love living with more people and with more children around me. Outside my house, in the garden I have swings for my children.... What else can I ask?
Esti, your English is very good and you have written a long text. Fantastic! Just a few mistakes: CLEAN, not: clearn; A DININIG room; CHIMNEY (no "e" in the middle); ON, not: in the first floor; to THE garage FROM, not: by the kitchen; What else can I TELL, not: ask = preguntar. Ann
I would say: What more can I ask for? What more? = ¿Qué más? (we are talking about a house) What else? = ¿Qué otra cosa? (you refer to something else, a big car or a yacht (yate) in the port, for example).
Hi, My name is Mónica, I live in Madrid (Spain) in my onw apartment. It is on the second floor. This is small. It has one bedroom, bathroom and living room. The kichen is small but beautiful. There is a zone common with swimming poll, gym and garden. I go to gym three days a week. My job is librarian in the National Library of Spain, I love working here. I like reading historic novel. The weekend I love being with my friends.
Your text is very good, but there are some mistakes. Esti has corrected some of them. I'll correct the rest: a common zone (adjectives before the noun); I go to THE gym; I am a librarian. (It's you and not your job who is a librarian.)
Hello Mónica, I am going to corret you,( o intentarlo la menos). My onw--> My own Yo le pondría : one bedroom, a bathroom and a living room. Swimming poll---> Swimming pool
Se supone que nos tenemos que corregir nosotros, espero no liarte!!! Kind regards Esti
Gracias por corregirme los errores, a veces yo no los veo y esta muy bien que tus compañeros te ayuden. Asi que me lo has explicado muy bien. Thank You Mónica
You need to go to the supermarket to buy some things. Leave a note to your roommate to inform him/her. Tell him/her about the things you need to buy for the house, and about the things you are going to buy, etc.
Carlos we need buy something for cooking. I'm making fruit salad and vegetable salad for dinner this afternoon . I'm going to buy to the supermarket. We need two red apples and four green apples, five big oranges and three bananas. We need, two tablespoons of orange juice and three teaspoons of sugar too. We also need some tomatoes, cucumbers, four tablespoons of oil and salt and pepper, a little of each. I'm buying today, an onion and some lemon juice too. Can you help me please? I meet you in the supermarket at six o'clock. Thanks for your help, Diego.
Hello Diego Tenías que haber hecho una nueva entrada porque creo q aquí no lo va a ver nadie. Yo estaba revisando todos los textos y por eso lo he visto. I find some mistakes in your text:
I'm going to buy AT the supermarket. You are going to buy oranges and sugar, and then, make orange juice and add three teaspoons of sugar. (No vas al super a comprar dos cucharadas de azúcar ni zumo de naranja)
We also need some tomatoes, cucumbers, oil, salt and pepper.(Because you need to use four tablespoons of oil) I'm buying right now, an onion and some lemon juice too. I meet you AT the supermarket at six o'clock.
Wait for Ann's corrections, because those can to be wrong.

Thanks Ann, but when I say : "What else can I aks?" I want to say: "¿qué más puedo pedir?" Is this ok?

Esti,
