Is there anyone who knows how to type out Icelandic letters using an U.S. keyboard? I've already tried some methods offered by Google but they didn't work. And I don't want to use the virtual keyboard cause it slows down the typing speed. So I'm here asking if there is some way by changing the computer settings or using the software stuff that may help me out of this？ If you do know some good ways, please please do me a favor and give me a clue......Thanks a lot.

About "get out!"&"Go out!" When someone says that, does this always mean he or she is really angry at that moment and doesn't want to be bothered? Like the Chinese saying "滚出去！" Is it a really strong expression? But what if I'm not upset and I just want to express it in a normal way. What should I say? "你能不能先出去一下？"(Is it "Could you please go out for a second?") Thank you.

How do you describe a person who's not sincere? I mean, a person who doesn't do things that match his words. Do you usually use the word "feigned" or "false"? Could you please give me some example sentences?Thank you.

...And They Have Escaped The Weight Of Darkness Time goes faster than before, which make me afraid of the speed of life. It’s not about the death thing, but I feel I’m losing the happy moments of being young and I can hardly get them back. Maybe I’m just too busy and too tired. 2 months ago, I singed up for an activity which required sending posters and taking some photos in order to introduce my favorite musician Olafur Arnalds who’s from Iceland about his music concert. They only chose 5 people. I’m not the lucky one. But I was still so excited about imagining the whole process. I remembered that I couldn’t fall asleep that night when I got the information and my heart beat so fast. I guess that’s because we feel great for doing things we’re really interested in. And we just don’t care about the result for we really enjoy being a part of that thing. Just like the third prize my group won in the cooking competition held by the student union. We never thought we were gonna win an award. We felt happy for doing such a thing together and we ate the left salad we made and almost missed the awards moment. Life should be like that. Being involved in one thing that is really attractive to you and you just finish it heart and soul. Without being forced by other people and other things. I love the feeling of being enthusiastic and full of youthful spirit. When tomorrow is coming to you, you just want to embrace it right away. What if time just slows down and let me take a breath? Italki has changed a bit, with new functions! Then maybe I should cheer up and move on. Have a nice day!

Hate & Don't like The word "hate" is different from "don't like", could you please tell me how big the difference is between the two kind of expression? To what extent will people use "hate"? "She doesn't like cats."Does it mean that "She doesn't hate cats,either."?

A new term begins. I did the first part-time job in my life in the last two days. I thought it would have been simple and easy which turned out that it was totally a disaster. Life is much harder than the way we think it could be. And I'm really not cut out to be a salesman. I must do something to enhance my eloquence. Another thing is that we take more courses than last semester. I need pay more attention to my classes. Getting a large pressure. Hoping that everything is going to be fine.

Please help me translate the "十二生肖"，thanks！翻译。 鼠牛虎兔龙蛇马羊分别怎么翻译？ 尤其是：我属羊，怎么说？"羊"-----可以有：sheep，goat，lamb，ram...我疑惑的是，要用哪种才合适？

Freedom Writers That's a movie I have just watched. Teenagers that made great changes with the help of a young new teacher. I have read the book 《The Freedom Writers Diary》, which is the prototype of the film, several months ago . I was shocked and moved by their stories, since than I have realized that there were still so many bad dangerous and unfair things exit in the world. Just somewhere among us or maybe far away. But we want a happy safe life and we all want to be good. There might be someone like Erin to come out and help us to change the bad sistuation. But what if there isn't? Than we should do something on our own to make a change. Be confident to ourselves and chasing our dreams and love people all around us. Be kind. I love the book, you can check it out when you get some time. In Chinese, we call it 《放牛班的奇迹》.
