More and more applications are create which help our life a lot. We can easily connect with family, friend and other people even at a distance. We can also update information immediately and find many ways to entertain thanks to it. Besides the huge advantages, smartphone has some disadvantages. If we pay too much attention on it, we will forget the present. We forget how to connect and communicate with others in the real life. Let imagine a family when the parents always look at the screen so the child don’t have anyone to play with. If we use smartphone too close to bedtime, we will lost sleep and have trouble with memory. Therefore, If we take care of ourself, let’s put the phone down when we needed. Please help me correct this paragraph. Thanks a lot in advance.

How to use "I wish...would..." I read in a grammar book how to use the structure " I wish...would...". They said: "We use I wish...would... to say that we want something to happen. But we do not use I wish ...would.. to say how we would like things to be". Could you explain the difference to me?

What is the meaning of your name?

The most of parents in my country give their child a meaningful name. The inspiration of naming comes from many form, such as plants, animals, wishes, luck, celebrities….

For instance, in Vietnam, “Hoa” means “flower”, “An” means “safe”, “Long” means “dragon”. There is even an actress in Vietnam whose name “Luu De Li”. Her grandmother named her after the India capital (but was translated in Vietnamese) because her grandmother love this city so much.

Or another case, if a girl’s name is “Lynh” that name has no meaning in Vietnamese but maybe she has it because it’s the name of her father’s ex-girlfriend =))

Therefore, I wonder that in other countries, whether the name of a person has the meaning or not.

My name is Duyen that means charm and beauty. What’s your name? And tell me about the meaning of your name.

This is a discussion and also my English practice. Thank you!

Have you ever had a cup of egg coffee?

Do you know egg coffee is one of the most famous coffee in Vietnam. Firstly, it is created by Nguyen Van Giang who worked as bartender for Metropole hotel in 1950s. The recipe of egg coffee is based on Cappuccino’s, but instead of fresh milk as eggs. Because that day eggs is cheaper and more familiar than milk. The ingredients to make egg coffee are hot coffee, egg yolks and condensed milk (or sugar). The recipe is so simple as well. You just need to whisk egg yolks until they are changed to creamy soft, then you pour hot coffee into the cup. Finally, gradually egg cream is poured on top. When drinking, you have to stir to mix 2 layers together. It tastes sweet and greasy. The recipe sounds simple, but the secret lies in the technique of egg whisking and how much each ingredient is used. Therefore, there are so many the recipes and egg coffee shops in Vietnam. But if you want to drink the original egg coffee, you must go to the coffee shop of the man created it at 30 Nguyen Huu Tuan Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi.

Please help me check this paragraph Motivation is feeling that you are willing to do something, such as to start learning foreign language. I usually find motivation in the things that I can achieve when I take action. For example: If I speak English fluently, I can communicate with foreigners as well as know more about the outside world. I also read the stories of successful learners and watch their videos shared about experiences. Sometimes, I apply the methods that are suitable for me. Those are very useful. Besides, I’d like to talk with others person who older and wiser than me. I learn a lot from them, not only how to learn effectively but also how to handle the problem in life. However, maintaining motivation is hard. There are days when I’m tired and don’t want to do anything, but I remind myself to keep go on. I tried a lot so I don’t want my effort is wasted. Please help me check this paragraph and correct it if i'm wrong. Thank you so much.
