Shakespeare’s invented words

“A family member that I'd really love to work with in the future is my cousin John, who is a few years older than me, and now has his own successful marketing company. I’m now in my final year of studying media marketing, and John has always been there for me, anytime I needed some advice or help with my studies. I guess you could say he has been like a mentor to me.




I actually had the pleasure of working with him during my summer holidays last year, which was a really amazing experience, and I got a lot of great hands-on working experience . 




As I'm studying media marketing, John's marketing company would be a perfect fit for me to put my years of study to use. I’m especially interested in social media marketing, and would love the opportunity to specialise in this niche market. I have also discussed this with my cousin, and he is also very interested in breaking into this market in the future.




If this could happen in the future I really would be over the moon with happiness, and it would be like a dream come true. I think it would be an amazing opportunity, as well as a challenge that I would relish. I think I could learn so much from my cousin, as well as working hard to prove myself. I also think having him take me under his wing would be a great start to my working life.

Если вы изучаете русский язык, то знаете, когда в России празднуют Новый год. Конечно, в ночь с 31 декабря на 1 января. Но есть и другие даты, когда люди в России отмечают приход Нового года.
На территории России живут не только русские.  Здесь живут люди 190 народностей и национальностей. 
Например, в Бурятии живёт много буддистов. В этом регионе России Новый год отмечают два раза. В первый раз — как и во всей стране, в ночь с 31 декабря на 1 января. Второй Новый год празднуют по лунному календарю. Этот день называется Праздник Белого месяца или по-другому - Сагаалган. В 2025 году Сагаалган будут праздновать 1 марта. 
В Татарстане 31 декабря — тоже не единственный праздник Нового года. Весной тут празднуют Навруз.  Это праздник Нового года по солнечному календарю. В 2025 году его будут отмечать 20 марта.
В Республике Саха Новый год издавна празднуют совсем не зимой. Ысыах - праздник в честь божеств Айыы (прародителей народа саха). Для людей это праздник возрождения природы. Ысыах празднуется весной или летом. В последние годы его отмечают 21 июня в день летнего солнцестояния. В эту дату самый длинный день и самая короткая ночь в году.
Как видите, Россия – огромная страна. Здесь можно увидеть и узнать много необычного и интересного.
