Sharing bookmarks!
Jarkko Laine is so right!
He is the creator of North East blog, which is a blog on ten practical tips for writing in English. I found this website among Ilaria’s bookmarks and what cached my attention was Ilaria’s brief description in notes:’[…] article published by a man living in Finland who wants to give 10 practical tips for writing blogs in English […] in order to reach more than a handful of people’. This man lives at the Northen end of Europe and through this blog he gives many useful advices on how to master a language which is not one’s own language. The most important thing in is practical guide is that he tries to talk always about learning process as a pleasure activity, especially when it comes to the 10th tip on Relax: ‘[…] and enjoy your writing […] you have to put lot of effort, but it’s not going to happen overnight.’
Another interesting website I explored is Chiara’s bookmark on how to write a resume. It is undoubtedly a contemporary one especially because it deals with the 2009’s collapsed economy. Therefore, I suggest to go and visit
www.dumblittleman.com.
Then, unfortunately I must admit that I haven’t got in touch almost at all with British slang and maybe Martina’s septicscompanion.com website will be another chance for me to explore more this branch of the English language. The website is a free British slang dictionary and slang expressions or terms are traceable both by letter and category. The last one is much more helpful because it enables you to both understand terms or expressions within a given context and also isolate concepts that a person will use again in different contextual situations.
