I do not know how to use this platform anymore. When I first signed up, I was able to find a language exchange partner. They took that feature away. I created posts in my target language, used the "invite tutor" feature so that a teacher can take a look at my portuguese writing for corrections, only to discover the "invite tutor" button only messages a teacher to let them know you are possibly interested in being their student. I already have a teacher and I am sure many other students do too, but what about outside the lessons with our teacher? Which brings me to my question that I would like to ask, how do other students in the community get their post corrected by teachers? I am assuming that teachers would have to discover the post and decide if they want to correct it? My others questions are, how do I use the community for support and Is there any way I could discover other students? My home page are all teachers. Only teachers. I like the idea of remaining on one platform. Im 100% aware of Tandem and I thiinnkkk....HELLOTALK, I almost forgot its name; its called HelloTalk. The goal is daily interaction with real people that speak the language and to be corrected as I communicate when speaking and writing. Perhaps iTalki is mainly for students seeking teachers. Maybe I do need to use a platform that supports what Im looking for. I have no idea.

Hi everyone! Please help me understand the difference between the words "purple" and "violet" when it comes to colors. Do both words refer to the same color? Can they be used interchangeably? If not, how are they different (e.g., which one is warmer/darker/closer to blue/red etc.)? The problem is that both words mean pretty much the same in my native language (both are translated as "фиолетовый" into Russian), which is why I wonder whether native English speakers see the difference between these two words.

Yesterday I was told that John pop Nadine the question. (In this sentence I was trying to use the slang “pop the question” 6. After swimming in the ocean I felt like I was going to throw up. I guess ocean’s water got into my mouth. 7. The flight attendants gave all passengers the menu but it was hard to choose dishes because it wasn’t translated from Turkish into English.

What does it mean? ** We're all out of time. ** Does it mean; We're completely out of time.

Are both sentences OK? I know what kind of person he is. And If I say; Don't praise him to me. Don’t brag about him to me.

Can I use these interchangeably? He thinks he's something. He thinks he's somebody. He thinks he's special.

Does art have a universal language? As a professional painter, I believe colors can speak louder than words. Do you think knowing art history helps us understand different cultures better while learning a new language? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
