Creo que Ud. es muy sabio. Tratar aprender el inglés es una idea maravillosa, y si sigue con tanto esfuerzo, va a aprenderlo, se lo juro. Hay errores aquí, pero se entienden porque Ud. no tiene mucha experiencia con mi idioma, y todavía no sabe que existen muchas diferencias de forma, no solo de palabras. También, la ortografía de inglés no tiene ningún systema sensato. Por favor, acuérdese que es novato, y se necesita hacer muchos errores para lograr cualquira gran meta.

¡Bienvenido!

You can practice your English here as much as you want. There are many friendly people here who will try to help you.

I wasn't able to understand everything you wrote, but offer these suggestions:

() some words, but I try to understand . The trouble is that I don't practice with other people. If I can practice with other people, I can learn much more quickly than on my own. If somebody wants to practice with me, just tell me and I will add you ( as a friend in MSN?).

Thank you,
I like that you correct me, because so I can to correct to myself,
I sometimes think that is difficult the English,
I have learned in less of three months,
my brother teach me since of january.
He be studing the idioms career,
he hasn't a lot experience like with English,
only with the that they teach his in the school,
but I beleave that he has teached me well,
now I want to speaking too, but I need help of you,
this laguage I like to me, and I feel to can to learn the as quickly as possible, because the I need in my work in my life,
I want to meet people of other places, and I talk with them.
I wait that you help, and you corrected help me, I can to learn it the faster than by myself.
Thank you. (You're welcome!)
I like that you correct me, because that way I can learn to correct myself.
I sometimes think that English is difficult.
I have learned it in less than three months.
My brother has been teaching me since January.
He is studying a career in languages.
He hasn't got a lot of experience with English,
only that which they teach him in school,
but I believe that he has taught me well.
Now I want to speak it, too, but I need your help.
I like this language, and I feel the need to learn it as quickly as possible, because I need it in order to work in life.
I want to meet people from other places, and talk with them.
I hope you can help. Your corrections have helped me. I can learn it faster that way than by myself.


Si no entiendes las correcciones, te las puedo explicar.

Las X que significan?

... saludos
Las X marcan las palabras que no deberías usar al traducir una frase del español al inglés. Por ejemplo, 'puedo aprenderlo' se traduce 'I can learn it', no 'I can to learn it'. Por eso, marqué con una X la palabra de sobra. De la misma manera, la palabra 'the' no debe preceder el adverbio 'faster'.

Hope = tener esperanza
El verbo esperar tiene tres sentidos, que, a lo menos, corresponden a tres verbos ingleses (por lo general, no se puede intercambiar esos verbos, porque no tienen el mismo sentido):
Aguardar, se puede traducir 'to wait'. Por ejemplo:
Espera un momento. (Wait a minute.)
Tener esperanza (desear), se traduce 'to hope'. Por ejemplo:
Espero que todos se sientan cómodos. (I hope everyone is comfortable.)
Espero verte. (I hope to see you.) (una esperanza/un deseo)
Suponer (esperar algo), se puede traducir 'to wait for', 'to await' o 'to expect'. Por ejemplo:
Espero la noticia que todo resultara bien. (I'm waiting for the news that everything turned out well. / I'm awaiting the news ... . / I'm expecting the news ... .)
Espero verte. (I expect to see you.) (se supone que va a estar)

Got
La frase 'no tiene' se suele traducir 'doesn't have' o 'hasn't got'. Opté por hasn't got en este caso. Por sí solo, hasn't no está malo, pero no se usa muy a menudo. Por ejemplo:
Ella no tiene pelo rubio. (She doesn't have blond hair. / She hasn't got blond hair.) Nunca vas a oir 'She hasn't blond hair'.
Por otra parte, 'No tiene ni la menor idea' se dice 'She hasn't a clue'. Es un modismo. También suele oir 'She hasn't got a clue' y 'She doesn't have a clue'.

Which
La frase 'sólo con lo que' se dice 'only with that which'; never 'only with the that'. No es necesario repetir la palabra con, y fue por eso que la marqué con X. Pero está bien dicho así.

Taught
Del verbo to teach, es el tiempo indicativo perfecto (simple present perfect tense). To teach viene a ser un verbo irregular. Hay muchos verbos irregulares en inglés. He aquí unos ejemplos de verbos irregulares en tiempo indicativo presente, pretérito, y perfecto:
sing, sang, sung
stink, stank, stunk
sting, stung, stung
see, saw, seen
rise, rose, risen
speak, spoke, spoken
teach, taught, taught

In order to
A fin de / Para
Esta frase se usa cuando quiere decir 'para hacer algo'. Por ejemplo:
Para alcanzar la meta, tiene que esforzarse mucho. (In order to reach the goal, you have to work hard at it.)
La frase que escribiste era 'because the I need in my work in my life'. No tiene sentido 'because the I need'. Supongo que querías decir 'porque lo necesito'. El pronombre lo es un complemento directo (direct object, in English). En inglés, el complemento directo sigue al verbo. Así que, traduje la frase 'because I need it'. En lo que resta, no sé si querías decir 'en mi trabajo, en mi vida' o 'en mi trabajo y en mi vida' o 'en mi trabajo en mi vida'. Lo que escribí (I need it in order to work in life) se puede traducir 'lo necesito para (poder) trabajar en la vida'. Si me equivoqué con el sentido, mis disculpas sinceras. Tengo que adivinar el sentido de algunos frases, porque la traducción directa no sirve.

I can learn it faster that way than by myself
Así
La frase 'that way' (así) se refiere a la frase anterior - 'Your corrections have helped me'. (Las correcciones me han ayudado.) (También puede decir 'Your corrections help me'. (Las correcciones me ayudan.))
No me sonaba bien la frase sin añadir la referencia a aquel idea. Es decir:
'Las correcciones me ayudan. Puedo aprenderlo (el inglés) más rápido así (al verlo corregido) que por mí mismo.'

Espero te ayuden las explicaciones.

Saludos.

Gracias, David, por las correcciones. De cierto, está bien dicho la palabra de sobra, pero me gusta más 'te sobra una palabra, marcada con X'.

Está bien Rusty, nada más me sonó mejor "que sobra" que "de sobra", pero esta última forma no creo que esté de plano mal.
